Video taken by IDF naval boat shows the passengers of the Mavi Marmara, one of the ships in the 'Free Gaza' Flotilla, violently attacking IDF soldiers who were trying to board the ship after having sent repeated requests for the boat to change course.

Large groups of passengers surrounded soldiers and beat them with metal poles and chairs, and threw one soldier over the side of the ship. Some passengers grabbed pistols from the IDF soldiers and opened fire. As a result of the attacks, seven IDF soldiers were injured, and nine of the passengers were killed.

The 'Free Gaza' Flotilla had publicly insisted on their non-violent intentions, however their violent attack on the IDF soldiers was clearly premeditated. They had knives, metal rods, firebombs and other items ready to use.

These are peace protesters?

Seems very evident they were hiding something.

You may have a point,how about the next ship of scumbags gets raked with mini-guns and fragmentation shells or a few missiles before boarding?

Works for me.

I'd just rather not see crying about return fire.

No,I don`t think they`re "crying about return fire",as much as defending the Israelis` honorable intentions in attempting such EXTREME measures to try and avoid bloodshed. It`s the scumbag leftists and others who`s pathological hatred of Jews that has goaded them into showing such foolish tolerance of two legged animals that should, rightly, be wasted the second they say boo.
