"Peace" activists attack Israelis


It's apparent from this video that the passengers on the Mavi Marmara made a premeditated attack on the Israeli commandos as they boarded the ship. For a more complete sequence of the boarding, go here. and here. This is what the organizers of the flotilla wanted: an international incident that would fan anti-Israeli sentiment.

I didnt realize you could make a premeditated attack on men illegally boarding your ship in international waters. In most cases, thats called "self defense against pirate invaders"

Yes, and it's a good image of what really happened. Of the six ships in the flotilla, this is the only one that had an armed mob greeting the Israeli commandos.
