pure evil
That will be one fine day.
Count me as “ticked off”, but God will not abandon Israel nor His covenant with Abraham.
You got it...you name it and it’s yours! Such a deal eh?
Just correcting the record. I never take anything personally - especially on FR!
heavily armed with paint guns and pistols?
You first statement is untrue. Israel did not attack a ship in international waters. They contacted the ship by radio and politely invited (using that word) the ship to dock nearby where ships are routinely inspected and processed through to their destinations. This is done under NATO authority in concert with Egypt. I watched the video of the Israelis talking to the ship, it is available on the net. Subsequently the ship refused to dock and attempted to proceed toward Gaza.
Israeli forces later boarded the ship without deadly weapons and were attacked by the peace activists who are assisting Hamas and the Hezbos. The activists want to break the blockade (also being enforced by Muslim Egypt until today) so bombs and other weapons can be smuggled into Gaza.
What exactly did Israel do wrong?
A good argument for the free US states to secede from the fascist, anti-Semitic states.
2. Bullet proof vests, night vision goggles and other clearly non civilian aid items have been discovered so far.
3. The ship was notified priot to boarding that an inspection team was going to board.
3. 50+ suspected terrorists being detained carried no identification BUT carried packets of large amounts of cash.
Oh yes....last but not least, knives, baseball bats and metal poles can and do kill. If someone approached me wielding any one of those threateningly, I'd unhesitatingly put 2 or 3 dead center mass.

I pray for Israel.
“We are tracking the ships and are under orders to stop them,” a top navy officer said.
According to the sources, in a future operation, the navy would use more force.
“We boarded the ship [the Mavi Marmara] and were attacked as if it were a war,” one officer said. “That will mean that we will have to come prepared in the future as if it were a war.”
OUTSTANDING!
Don’t get too worked up about it; Jews are happiest when they’re surrounded by their enemies. In fact, they hardly know any other kind of life.
What makes you think that I wouldn’t like ol’ Curtis LeMay??? Strong Defense is an Awesome Offense! Israel is perfectly capable.
