Were Al Qaeda Members Aboard The Gaza Aid Flotilla?



Breaking: 40 Of “Peace Activists” On Gaza Flotilla Are Al-Qaeda -- Gateway Pundit

Yesterday, the Obama Administration condemned Israel and sided with the Gaza Flotilla. Now there is word that 40 of the arrested flotilla “peace activists” are al-Qaeda.

Earlier, it was reported that a majority of the arrested “peace activists” who brutally attacked the Israeli soldiers with pipes, metal rods. chairs and knives are linked to terror groups including Al-Qaeda. Several are members of the Muslim Brotherhood. The activists include Turks, Yemenites and Indonesians. And, many of the arrested “peace” fanatics have no identification papers.

The Arab Media reported that several of the flotilla participants were writing wills, preparing for martyrdom, and determined to reach Gaza or die.

My Comment: I have known and corresponded with Jim Hoft at Gateway Pundit for almost 7 years. I disagree with his politics at times, but what he posts is usually done with great care and thought. He is also a blogger who has contacts within the Israeli Government, and is an unapologetic Israeli supporter. But he has raised an important question .... who are the unidentified passengers on this flotilla?

My guess .... they are Islamic radicals traveling to Gaza in search of Jihad. I do expect their identities to be found out and disclosed in the next few days.

I have seen any number of references to the mixed bag of terrorists, all masking under the guise of peace activists. Israel was aware of this. Let them all go because Obama notified Bilbi that it should be done--probably to calm Turkey.
Note: from what I have seen, the Israelis delivered the goods but noted that most of the medicine was already out of date.
On the ship too was ex US ambassador. A quick Wiki and you will see he believes Hezbollah no more terrorist that his own country!
