Once again, the rogue state of Israel is out of control. Resorting to ramming a civilian vessel is yet another display of the fact that the IDF simply have no problem targeting civilians. Unarmed, non-aggressive civilians.
Dignity

With Cynthia McKinney, 2008 Green Party Presidential Candidate on board, it would not be inappropriate for the US to consider this an act of war much like the attack on the USS Liberty in 1967 that killed 43 American service people.
From CNN:
(CNN) – An Israeli patrol boat struck a boat carrying medical volunteers and supplies to Gaza early Tuesday as it attempted to intercept the vessel in the Mediterranean Sea, witnesses and Israeli officials said.
The Dignity arrives in Tyre, Lebanon, after it was reportedly rammed by an Israeli military vessel Tuesday.CNN Correspondent Karl Penhaul was aboard the 60-foot, Gibraltar-registered pleasure boat Dignity when the contact occurred. When the boat later docked in the Lebanese port city of Tyre, severe damage was visible to the forward port side of the boat, and the front left window and part of the roof had collapsed.
The Dignity was carrying crew and 16 passengers – physicians from Britain, Germany and Cyprus and human rights activists, including former U.S. Rep. Cynthia McKinney – who were trying to reach Gaza through an Israeli blockade of the territory.
The captain of the Dignity said the Israelis broadcast a radio message accusing the vessel of being involved in terrorist activity. But Israeli Foreign Ministry spokesman Yigal Palmor denied that and said the radio message simply warned the vessel not to proceed to Gaza because it is a closed military area.
Palmor said there was no response to the radio message, and the vessel then tried to out-maneuver the Israeli patrol boat, leading to the collision. Video Watch Penhaul describe the boat damage »
Penhaul said at least two Israeli patrol boats had shadowed the Dignity for about half an hour before the collision, moving around the vessel on all sides. One of the patrol boats then shined its spotlight on the Dignity while the other, with its lights off, “very severely rammed” the boat.
The captain of the Dignity told Penhaul he received no prior warning. Only after the collision did the Israelis come on the radio to say they struck the boat because they believed it was involved in terrorist activities.
“I would call it ramming. Let’s just call it as it is,” McKinney said. “Our boat was rammed three times, twice in the front and one on the side".

This must stop now.
This is like two spoiled children fighting over a toy, and the only way to stop it is to take their toy away.
A massive multi-national force should be employed and both Hamas and Israel relieved of their governments and order restored. Clearly neither are capable of being the slightest bit civilized.
The majority of the peoples on both sides overwhelmingly support co-existence and peace. Israel is the aggressor and only we (US) have the power to control them. Yet we do nothing short of encourage them.
The Neocon elements in both the US and Zionist governments thrive on war.
What does that leave us with?
Obama.
Time to stop hiding, Barack. Call Bush out in front of everyone and tell him to do something other than suck Israel’s Zionist, Terrorist ass.
You know what needs to be done.
1) Abide by all UN resolutions concerning Israel and do not veto sound UN decisions. Tell Israel that their money and arms depend on their compliance with every detail of all resolutions.
2) Tell Hamas they’ll be next after Afghanistan if this insanity doesn’t stop.
3) End the influence of AIPC, the ADL, the PNAC and other such Zionist Pigs on our own government. They are the true agitators of all these dots.
4) We’ve had Regime Change here in America, we need Regime Change in Israel too. The Likud is the Neocon element in Israel that must be disposed of.
If all else fails, Request the largest multi-national force ever assembled and use it. If there’s going to be war in the Holy Land, let it be the biggest and the last. An international Holy Land with a UN imposed government and permanent peace keeping force sounds good to me.
Twenty days, Barack. Whatcha gonna do?
Comments, Pingbacks:
Well, you did at least manage two sentences. Perhaps I should be grateful they were grammatically sound.
Thanx for your concern.
