Israel gets a bad rap. In fact, throughout history, the Jewish people have been getting a bad rap all over the world. Not to mention appalling treatment. And now, the country that was once their ally, has turned their backs on them, too. Ah, Obamaland.
The latest is the situation with the so called "humanitarian" ship IHH, a Turkish based group, that has arisen. Watching NBC national news tonight, I saw nothing about what happened to the Israeli soldiers whose job it is to keep terrorist supporting groups out of the area. But here is the clip shown on CNN and FOX:
These are peaceful, humanitarians?!?!?!?!? What part of beating men with metal pipes and chairs and then throwing one off the ship (who has suffered permanent brain damage from the event, by the way) reads "peaceful" or "humanitarian" to you? Seriously? Are you blind?
Here are some facts for you:
Cypress refused to allow the IHH (or the Free Gaza ship), allegedly carrying humanitarian help, to dock in their country because of their "terrorist group connections". The French and Danish also have intelligence of their connection with (ie: THEY ARE) terrorists. So when Israel, in self defense and as a regular practice accepted by all the other ships that come in, tell them they need to board the ship and search for weapons, they are attacked. The Israeli's, to PROTECT themselves, shoot to stop the violence. And it works. Had the Israeli's boarded with metal pipes and chairs, I'm sure the IHH people on board would simply have been beaten, just the way they were beating the Israeli's. But, neither here nor there.
So what do you have to hide that incites you to beat these Israeli's if you are, indeed, humanitarian aide?
Well, now that's the million dollar question, isn't it?
Can you say Terrorist?
Since when does the U.S. condemn another country for protecting themselves from the constant and consistent terrorist attacks they suffer? Oh yeah, when Obamaland became our mantra. America? What have we become? In a word, Socialists. And I don't care who you are, that's not good for anyone.
Look around. FOX News, CNN News, Glen Beck, a Danish research institute (Danish Institute for International Studies) and the French intelligence reports and more will support the allegations of the terrorism. Even our CIA has investigated and come to the same conclusion.
Yet when the U.N. cannot come to terms with what actions to take against North Korea for torpedoing a South Korea ship, killing 46 on board, among others, they quickly form an emergency council to condemn Israel for protecting themselves. What a joke.
Even more so - What a shame.

Wow, well written. I had to double check that I was on your blog and not mine. I'm going to post your link on my blog. So you'll have something edit when you get home tomarow.
Thanks, Hon. I appreciate it. I just got so made about this and the treatment of Israel. And especially people too ignorant to know the history - that this land was Israel's long before there were non-nomadic tribes settling in the area. They need to read their scriptures - not to mention history.
Good for you! Very well-written and very true.
Thank you, Nightdragon. Not my usual area. I was just so dang angry over it all.
I'm afraid the version of history and interpretation of scripture you make reference to is mostly an erroneous set of Mormon and other folks myths. As a starting point, may I suggest this post: http://mormonmatters.org/2010/02/13/walk-a-mile/
And for a second step, may I suggest reading some of those books and sources referenced in the post. That is all.
Anonymous - Initially, I suspected your post was an anti-Mormon post (and let's face it, it sort of is when looking at your Mormom Matters post). But what I find most interesting is that you choose to be more influenced by the writings of men rather than scriptural teachings. Abraham was given the land of Isreal for his posterity. Your article points out all the horrors suffered by the Palestinians but remarkable ignores all the horrors - which we see almost daily - against the Israelis. Disagreeing with violence is not a "Mormon" thing - it's a human thing. Fighting back against those intent on harming you in order to take you land - yet again! - is also a human thing and a right the Israelis have.
You and I will never agree on this issue. You refuse to see the truth, wanting only to side with the Palesinians and I will not make excuses for the murder of innocent Israelis who are forced to fight by violent, hateful people who are never satisfied with any compromise ever presented. Palestinians just want it all to themselves.
