Why is it that there is a bunch of prisoners from the ship who refuse to give their names and background...why were their children aboard when there was the strong possibility of trouble?
ReplyDeleteWhy has Israel now noted that it has passed the aid on into Gaza but that most of the medicine etc is beyond date for use..
Who was in charge of this operation and what is his background...
What might the ship owners and/or insurers do about the now planned second boat operation which Israel has said it will stop and this time not pussy foot around...my ship I would say get another!
Why is Turkey, perps of Armenian genocide, so blatant in denouncing Israel as barbaric etc etc?
just curious.
