Update: Initial reports – at least two people killed, 30 injured in Israeli attack on freedom flotilla
The usual....kill the peacemakers....very sad! I've heard unconfirmed reports of many more than two dead. What was their crime? What, for that matter, is the crime of the Palestinians, more so in Gaza?!?!?

Does anyone have a fix on the precise location? I'm not entirely sure it matters except in terms of law... These folks are pretty much already deep into the international parish hall of shame. And the USofA which arms and supports them and, well, g'nite. May the world be somehow rosier in the morning.

Yup. Will anyone actually believe that yarn that an activist grabbed a soldier's weapon?
Remember when Cynthia McKinney's relief boat to Gaza was attacked and rammed by an Israeli Navy ship in international waters? She describes it here:

She claims the Israeli lied and said the relief boat attacked their war ship. Sound familiar?

Haaretz has them in international waters.
