And dont forget that other Israeli captive who was kidnapped from Italy and has spent nearly thirty years imprisoned, mostly in solitary confinement.
Thats right, Mordechai Vanunu. Is it true he is back in solitary?
But doesn't it just indicate how bankrupt and desperate they are become. It actually backfires by reminding people of the most recent RachelCorrie flotilla IDF atrocities. The legendary chutzpah unravels. Smell of panic off this one.
This is pretty funny, a sail around New York harbour for a couple of hours somehow fails to capture the courage of those who sailed on the Gaza Freedom Flotilla to face helicopter gunships, gunboats and commandos. And while Hamas does indeed hold one person without trial Israel is now holding 17,000 without trial, many of them under 18. I guess they must be reliant on the compliant US media not to mention any of that reality!
maybe they could arrange to have their boat rammed, some people to shoot a few of them in the head from a combat helicopter then a nice interrogation afterwards in which their passports are taken and they are smacked around a bit and names and details are entered in a surveillance database which may effect their free movement and civil liberties for the forseeable future.
Maybe they should consult flotilla survivors for creative direction for their next "performance" for the media!! Bah!
