Arab League Secretary General Amr Moussa said he plans to present the proposal to the UN Security Council, the report said. The announcement came as Palestinian news agency Ma'an reported on Sunday that UN Special Coordinator for the Middle East Roberty Serry successfully brokered a ceasefire between Israel and Palestinian factions in the Gaza Strip including Hamas.

Samantha Power (Potential future Secretary of state) wants a “massive protection force” to invade Israel.

The Gaza flotilla next month is going to be gasoline on the fire.

It's not like plenty of people didn't see this coming.

If Obama is arrogant enough to actually attempt such a disgusting move, I, as an American, wish Israel the best of luck and will support any of our military personnel who decide they will not follow the orders of either our CIC or the Pentagon if ordered to do this thing.

Well that didn't take long. It was postured that the UN Responsibility to Protect doctrine (now enforced over Libya) would next be asked to protect Gaza.....

It is becoming increasingly difficult not to think that the final battle has begun.

If the Israeli’s are smart, they’ll put a hole or two in the flotilla craft a day or so before it’s to leave port, after all their supplies are aboard. Maybe UDT?

Of course not. They don't rally fly, they are mere projectiles, defensive weapons against the Zionists. /sarc

The usurper in the WH along with his other UN “psychophants” will gladly comply.

I think the only reasonable thing to support is a “no Arab” zone over the middle east.

I suspect this is what Libya is all about. Establish a precedent for totally arbitrrary intrusion into another country's affairs, using so-clled "No fly zones" as carte blanche to attack whoever you don't like.

In the cae of the Arab League and UN, guess who that might be.

The arabs can't take on Israel, but we can.....and they know they have the correct president in the US to back them....Valarie Jarret. Watch the SHTF when the palestians declare statehood this Sept.

The Israeli Air Force ain’t the Libyan Air Farce.

Any UN plane (including NATO) who tries to shoot down an Israeli pilot will be blown to bits.

No,

no fly zone over Gaza —> Obama invokes our “right to protect” and orders an attack on Israel.

I saw an interview of her strongly suggesting that. 0bama has surrounded himself with many very evil people.
