'Peaceful' Mavi Marmara victim to donate compensation to Hamas and Islamic Jihad

Turkey's Hurriyet Daily is reporting that one of the Mavi Marmara 'victims' is donating the compensation he expects to receive from Israel to the Hamas and Islamic Jihad terror organizations (Hat Tip: MFS - The Other News).

Activist Mehmet Tunç said he would donate the compensation to Hamas and Islamic Jihad in Palestine himself, adding that he would not touch even “one Turkish Lira” of it at a press conference today.

Tunç had been a volunteer on the Mavi Marmara ship traveling to deliver humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip. He told reporters that nine of his friends had been martyred by the Israeli forces in a raid he called “against international law.”

Abdullah Demirel, Tunç’s lawyer, said the Israeli government had apologized for the first time in its history and that it was a “huge development.” Demirel also said they had been informed by the Turkish Foreign Ministry on the compensation issue.

Maybe I missed something, but I thought that 'compensation' was only being paid to the families of those terrorists who died.
