After repeatedly bombing, in international waters, the boats of the humanitarian Global Sumud Flotilla crewed by volunteer peace activists, the Israeli foreign ministry has issued a statement claiming that it is the peace activists who are “pursuing a violent course of action”:
Yes, whyever wouldn’t anyone trust Israel to ‘peacefully’ distribute aid to the people it is deliberately starving, and shooting if they look for food…?
The flotilla has, of course, no weapons and has shown no signs of violence. Instead, Israel has bombed it dozens of times in international waters, as Irish comedian Tadgh pointed out:
Israel – always the crybully victim, even as they slaughter their neighbours.
