Video: IDF soldiers being attacked on the Mavi Marmara with sound

I played this video without sound in an earlier post. It is a video of IDF soldiers being attacked as they land on the Mavi Marmara. Here it is with sound.

Let's go to the videotape. I'll have a comment afterward.



Watching this video and listening to what the commanders are saying, I am incredulous that no live ammunition was used by the IDF for 40 minutes! It's a miracle that no soldiers were lynched.

There's another flotilla approaching. This time, let's hope the Defense Minister and the IDF Chief of Staff recognize that these are not peaceful protesters.

Hi Carl.
I have only one remark the Gaza border crossing from Egypt is open ,so it's clear that the second flotilla isen't even needed ,their only goal is to start an open conflict or they are counting on that what they are transporting will go true unchecked.

Let's hope the IDF puts its soldiers' lives ahead of the well-being of belligerents.

Its should be obvious Rule Of War #1. I don't want to have to slam them as being schlemiels again!

Suppose it was Somali pirates boarding the ship. Do you think the passengers would have attacked them? Not a chance because they would be afraid they would get shot. They had no fear because they thought the Israelis would not fire under any circumstances.

I dont think there will be other "humanitarians" making this trip.
