Any resaon why the ID should give in?

I assume you mean IDF.

I never said they should.

I've stated that being outraged at the Turko-terrorist resistance to boarding is stupid.

Of COURSE they resisted. Why wouldn't they?

Can you imagine having to use paint balls?

That’s how the U.N. emmasculated the good guys.
Meanwhile is allowed to use knives scissors etc.

"What was Obama's response?"
"They acted stupidly" - Heh. Actually it was more "regret loss of life ... waiting for details ..." almost an intelligent response - probably only because all the higher ups are on holiday ... ;-)

You mean Turkey? I suppose it was predictable.
Turkey is a member of NATO.

I am sure the Unpunished Nazis (UN) will make a stink about it....they are anti-Semitic....and their supporters from the Islamic Terrorist States, Liberal Globalists, and assorted other anti-Semites....will get appeasement from the UN

Personally I think the Israelis should have sunk them in the middle of the night as they were en route.

I agree with that. And, based on the situation with North Korea, I'm not sure that the international community would have raised a fuss. Although, come to think of it, the Israelis are Jews, so if they had sunk the boat, I guess the UN would probably have freaked out.

It’s just like our rules of engagement. If they would let our soldiers go in break things and kill people these battles would be over very quickly and actually less people would be killed/injured. Just like Japan!

I agree. I just heard the claim that Israel commandos were firing into the crowded decks as they descended...of course, I was shocked by this report. Later I found out that they were armed only with paint guns, and real sidearms.

But still, even if they had been simply firing paint pellets, how were the people on the boats supposed to know that?

But wait a minute; now I am listening to Al Jazeera's Jamal Elshayyal broadcasting on the deck of one of the lead ships, describing the descending commandos. Clike here to see the video. He never once mentions the fact that they were firing their weapons as they were being lowered onto the deck. How could he have possibly missed that?

Stay tuned.

That would have been nice, but they must have marshmallows in my hot chocolate or I'd be angry.. :O)

“I just can’t believe the IDF forces were supposed to take over a boat filled with 600 rabid Jew-hating muzzies and muzzie sympathizers with paint ball guns as their primary weapon. Whose idea was that?”

Really! Somebody higher up in the IDF should be in trouble for misjudgement. Also, when they saw the troops going down the rope being over-powered, they should have radioed the helicopter to instruct the troops to start going down shooting.

... But outrage over the bad guys fighting back is stupid... What did you expect them to do?...

It is my understanding that the IDF had boarded all the other ships in the flotilla without incident. This was the last ship to be boarded.

Experience is a great teacher. The Israeli’s will never again allow themselves to be put into this position. Not good news for the future ‘flotilla’ types.
