Friends, you may think that this is a scene from off the coast of Somalia but in fact it’s not! It’s off the coast of Gaza and the Israeli Navy has boarded this vessel and is taking it to their port in Ashdod.
Was this vessel bulging with weapons of mass destruction you may ask? No, it was filled with humanitarian supplies for the besieged Gazans, things like food and medical supplies like blood plasma.
Were the people on board terrorists? No, 20 in number, they were peace activists and half were journalists.
Was it a peaceful boarding? No! According to Reuters and Al Jazeera, shots were fired at the freighter. Then, soon after, correspondent Salam Khoder said, “Three of them are pointing their weapons at us…They are beating those on the vessel, they are beating and kicking us.”
The passengers had their mobiles taken and the ship’s communication systems were smashed. The passengers are to be questioned in Ashdod. Their crimes? They tried to break the illegal Israeli blockade of Gaza.
What is going to happen to them? “Once the questioning is completed we will make a decision on their fate,” an Israeli military spokesman said.
Well, there you have it, folks. Israel has no legal right to blockade Gaza. It has no legal right to put the Gazans under a land, sea and air siege. It has no right to board a vessel belonging to the nation of Togo. It has no right to fire at this vessel or to assault its passengers and take their phones or damage the ship’s communication. It has no right to take the passengers and crew to another port and interrogate them nor has it got the right to ‘decide their fate’.
Israel has increasingly become a barbaric nation, one without morals. It does as it wants without regard for anyone or anything.
Its reign of terror must be brought to an end. And only America can do it by refusing to support it or arm it!
But will it? Will Obama have the courage to stand up to the vested interests?
Or does Israel and the Jewish Lobby rule America?
Very disturbing events but excellent post. I’ve put a short excerpt with link to your full post on my blog. Thx!

No problem. By the way, I’m an Australian not British. Had a look at your blog. Impressive.
I tried to leave a comment but was unsuccessful.

vested interests
In light of the current reality – revealed mostly by the hard work of a veritable multitude of sundry bloggers – as opposed to being passively, erroneously ‘informed’ via the (traitorous!) MSM, and then scanning backwards in time, it would seem that there was scarcely a period when the world was *not* in the hands of some sort of vested interests. So far, no surprise and not much said – but it is the *nature* of the vested interests that concerns us, and again it would be surprising if that nature varied much. An enormous problem occurs when some expectation is dashed – a review must be conducted, and one of the 1st questions would be “How realistic was that expectation?”
My own expectations were that things were as portrayed; that, say, democracy was all that it was claimed to be. (We now know that the voters are deliberately dumbed-down and ‘fed’ on lies, that the candidates hardly represent their electorates at all, that both ‘sides’ of politics hardly differ and that any oft-touted ‘bipartisanship’ is deeply undemocratic – as it offers the voters no choice.)
Ha! But the question then is, how did the vested interests get so obviously bad – the already rich getting even more obscenely richer, many ‘normal’ citizens slipping – being driven – into poverty, massive rip-offs and aggressive wars and all the rest of the filth?
It’s easy to demonstrate that there is enough for all (world population still increasing despite some local starvation) – so why do the greedy already-rich fat-cats want ever more, far more than they could actually ever use, and impoverish so many to get it – not too mention driving the world into a climate-catastrophe?
As for Israel *becoming* a barbaric nation, seems like it was from the very start, see the King David Hotel bombing, the Deir Yassin massacre … right down to the ’08/’09 massacre in the Gaza – the list is as looong as it’s disgusting. I’ve even heard that they (Jews) totally accept lying to be a valid ‘tool’ when deployed in ‘defence’ of Israel. The IDF kills without compunction. Sick.
(Note that one simply cannot ‘defend’ stolen land. And note that I said Jews, as if it were all Jews; I not only do not resile, I take the opportunity to point out that a) not all are bad and b) the only remedy available is for a sufficient majority of Jews to curb the dominant strain of criminals in control. There are sins of commission (IDF) and sins of omission. No offence meant, just get on and rein the mad-dogs in.)
The answer to these and similar questions is that there is an ugly small section of humanity, which is both immoral and amoral; they take (cruel, unfair, *criminal*) advantage. The next question is obvious; Q: Why do we, the vast majority of decent, moral human beings, allow ourselves to be taken for such a stupid, damaging (vicious mass-murder for spoil) ride?

Why do we allow ourselves to be taken for a ride, Ian? Because we are thoroughly indoctrinated to do as we are told and accept what we are told and our so-called education system complements this indoctrination by churning out people who brains are filled with useless facts but have no ability to question.
It is our task, those who have awareness and vision, to awaken the sheeple, to get them to see the dark designs and manipulation of the ‘vested interest’, to expose them, to condemn them, to isolate them, then to get rid of them!
Cheers.

For the gentile men of the USA to stand up to the power of the Israel Lobby, and to do that they are going to have to get disciplined, say by by to the vices that are immolating them {which vices are pushed by the jewish crime network, by the way}. A good video with advise on how to get straight so that they can fight the extremist judaism that rules the USA now, can be found at http://www.prothink.tv, and at the websites of goyimpride and of quest.
Thank you for raising this question, David. My heart goes out to those men and women of peace on that boat that were attacked by the Jewish State of Israel.

My deepest sympathies are with the Palestinians and those Israelis who oppose the Israeli Reich and its genocide.

Michael, your comment is valuable because it does draw attention to a small group of Israelis who do oppose the Zionists!
