Surprise: Self-hating Jews flotilla to Gaza had no humanitarian goods
Remember the Irene, the ship of self-hating Jews that was intercepted by the IDF on its way to Gaza last week? Well, here's the sum total of the 'humanitarian goods' they were carrying:
The photo and others like it show four small backpacks with assorted toys for young children, such as coloring books, painting kits, and small dolls. The Israeli official points to the items as evidence the sole purpose of the mission was a desire to create a confrontation with the Israeli forces that are enforcing the blockade of Gaza.I would say there's another purpose: To open a sea lane to Gaza through which weapons and ammunition can be delivered. Fortunately, so far, it has not succeeded.
"The photos show that his was another example of an unnecessary provocation that has nothing to do with helping the people of Gaza or supplying them with humanitarian aid," the official said.

Stupid Jews to the power of two!
Do you care about Israel? and want somehow to change something? the mainstream media outlets (TV, newspapers, web) are somehow focused only on the security issues with the Palestinians. But you well know that Israel is much more than the focused news (usually negative, usually biased.) I am trying to get more stories and focus on the rest of Israel: economy, culture, technology, people... all the stuff that makes Israel a place that everyone who comes love and respect. See my blog http://bit.ly/h0X7w and write to me about any places where Israel is not just about the Palestinian issue.
The only thing I regret is Israel did not treat those kapos as they should have been treated.
In my opinion, they got off too lightly!
Interesting
From an outsiders point of view I wonder how they would have been recieved in Gaza, had they been allowed to present the gift of themselves to the goverment there. Would they have been abducted like Gilad Shalit the wounded young man, or applauded as heroes. Now we don't know.
