Small ferry carrying medical supplies that set sail from Cyprus Monday with 21 peace activists, medical supplies intercepted off Strip's shore; passengers say army jammed boat's radio signals.
At around noon Tuesday the Israeli Navy intercepted and took control of a boat that had set sail for the Gaza Strip with three tons of medical supplies, Palestinian sources said, adding that the Navy jammed the boat's radio signals.
The IDF Spokesperson's Office confirmed the report. Israeli military sources said there was no violence after the small ferry, sailing from Cyprus with activists from the US-based Free Gaza Movement, was intercepted off Gaza.
"The vessel, which was sailing under a Greek flag, left Larnaca, Cyprus on Monday en route to Gaza. After it was made clear that the boat was headed for Gaza's shore, it was told that Gaza was under a naval blockade. In light of this and the security hazards in the region, its entrance to Gaza was forbidden," the army said in a statement.

Make her walk the plank.
Cynthia McKinney is the kind of “person” that you could throw to the sharks and they’d suddenly become vegetarians.
Just so we don’t pay the ransom money. No SEALS either, might endanger her further.
Sounds like the S.S. Moonbat. Was she wearing a white hat and red shirt? Don’t tell me Al Sharpton was the Skipper?
Even the sharks won't take her...
Next time she needs to stand in front of a bulldozer.
Just chuck her fat ass into the ocean. We really don’t need her back.
I feel sorry for the Israeli Navy but they can have her.
It would have been awesome if the Israelis had found weapons on the boat and threw her into prison for a decade or so.
I remember reading this before. . . . . . . .
SINK IT!!!
They shoulds have blown it out of the water and left the do gooders for the sharks!
devious minds think alike
Not Likely. No money in it.
Besides, Sharpton and Rev. Jesse Jackson are too busy trying to move in on any money that might be available from Michael Jackson's estate.
Don't forget, even with his owing a half a billion dollars, he still owned the Beatles music library. That is a ton of money and the sharks already smell the blood in the water. Therefore, Jackson & Sharpton took the first flights to Califoney after they heard of Jackos’s death.
I hope they roughed that b*tch up.
