Israeli Pirates strike again.
// Israeli naval commandos on Tuesday seized control of a French ship attempting to break Israel's blockade of the Gaza Strip, reporting no resistance during the takeover in international waters.
The military had warned it would stop any attempt to break the sea blockade of Gaza, which Israel imposed four years ago in what it says is a measure to prevent arms smuggling to Gaza's ruling Hamas militant group.
Sixteen people, including pro-Palestinian activists from France, Canada and Sweden, journalists and three crew members, are aboard the French-based ship. They have said they had no aid on board and that their mission was meant to make a "political statement" against the Israeli blockade. //

Any other nation storming boats with commandoes in international waters would be described as Pirates, yet the Israelis always get away with it. (the BBC seem to be ignoring the story).
How do they get away with it

sandy //The Jews in the Warsaw Ghetto knew that their resistance to the Nazis would eventually be futile. Should they not have fought? //
They did not believe it was futile, far from it ! At the time the Russians were advancing fast and only a short distance away . Therefore the Jews thought "right this is the time to rise up !" But as soon as they did so the Russians deliberately stopped their advance. This is a matter of record.
They then restarted the moment the uprising was over and captured Warsaw in a matter of days. Had the jews known the Russians would stop they would not have risen up. Why would they ? They could have risen up any time in the previous 3/4 years. Now that would have been futile.

As I said. . . kick a hornet's nest then act outraged at the consequences. Then, to add a bit of spice, make sure you hide among the civilians while you do it. They care nothing for the people of Gaza; all they want is the destruction of Israel.
Trying to get the world to believe that Israel deliberately kills civilians is just one of their tactics. Some Israeli soldiers have been imprisoned for wrong doing - same as British and American forces in other parts of the world. Considering what the Israelis are up against it's a wonder more have not lost control. 'Brave' Hamas, sending women and children to stand in front of bulldozers.
Other 'freedom fighter' butchered an entire sleeping family of settlers some months ago. Chopped a three month old baby's head off. But unlike the majority of Palestinian deaths, this was deliberate murder.
What do you expect the Israelis to do DrFilth? The Hamas leaders do not want to share a bit of land they want it all. So Israeli keeps a tight grip on what it can. Bit like the situation that occurred in Ireland where the IRA - not all the Irish people - were not content with you British having a bit - they wanted it all. And the murderous IRA bombed and killed civilians as well as soldiers. Though did not deliberately behead babies as far as I can remember

As someone once said "I do wonder if USA is big Israel or Israel small USA when I see that American natives have almost disappeared (killed) from USA as Palestinians are being killed by Israelis" And the map on last page how Palestine disappeared and Israel is spreading is same as how it happened in USA.

>>The Israeli leadership continues to defy countless UN resolutions pertaining to its policies and military tactics of the past 35 years.
During the period between 1967 and 2000, Iraq was the subject of 69 Security Council resolutions. By comparison, Israel, our closest "ally" in the Middle East, has been
the subject of 138 resolutions. Not surprisingly, most of those resolutions call upon Israel to comply with basic principles of international law embodied by the
UN Charter. Many of them condemn actions taken by Israel and call upon Israel on more than one occasion to comply with previous resolutions
that Israel ignored and continues to ignore to this day. <<

The Palestinians could have got 90% of what they wanted but it was turned down by Arafat in the 90s who could not control the the extremists such as Hamas. Israel is wrong in continuing to build settlements but as long as Hamas refuses to accept a two state solution the Zionists will prevail in Israel.
aog even the jews are criticizing the jews have you ever thought that people are sick of seeing them bomb women and children and nicking land every other day

>> The words “Jewish” and “terrorist” are not easily uttered together by Israelis. But just occasionally, such as last week when one of the country’s leading intellectuals was injured by a pipe bomb placed at the front door of his home, they find themselves with little choice.
The target of the attack was 73-year-old Zeev Sternhell, a politics professor at Hebrew University in Jerusalem specializing in European fascism and a prominent supporter of the left-wing group Peace Now.
Shortly after the explosion, police found pamphlets nearby offering 1.1 million shekels ($300,000) to anyone assassinating a Peace Now leader. The movement’s most visible activity has been tracking and criticizing the growth of the settlements in the West Bank.

Dr filth // be honest modeller there is not much left for them to nick, starve and beat them out then they will have it all //
I'm being a bit thick I can't quite understand what you mean or its relevance to what I said . In the 90s Arafat was offered most of the west bank half of Jerusalem and the return of half of those who had been displaced . Even the Golan Heights were on offer subject to a UN guarantee on security. Similarly the border with Lebanon . Had he accepted he could have negotiated from a position of strength as the leader of a sovereign state. All of which was guaranteed by the US and the UN. I think Arafat at first agreed in principle but then changed his mind.
