I'm not getting into who was armed with what. Bottom line: Israel had no right to stop or board those ships in international waters or even closer to Gaza's shore, which it claims it no longer controls. This is very, very pathetic to try and defend the attack of a humanitarian convoy. This was a press release. I’m not getting into who was armed with what.

I admire and trust your blog which I reference and share as a source of what's actually happening in Gaza. I am neither pro-Israel or pro-Islam. I am a pacifist who believes in the rights of all children to grow up in peace and no-one who has these basic beliefs can ignore what is happening in Gaza. Especially not today. The last time I phoned Shlomo Droor to complain, with success and I shall be calling the White House and Mrs Clinton until I succeed in getting through today. I shall also be e-mailing and writing. I cannot believe that the Ambassador of Israel in U.S. is citing 'some marbles and metal pipes' as threatening materials which could be used to hurt Israelis - this from one of the most armed countries in the world - they cannot be allowed to get away with this. As the attack took place in international waters, it is everyone's business. Once again I salute your resilliance and wish you well. Louise. Dear Gaza Mom,

There are whole Youtube clips showing attacks on the IDF sailors, including a stabbing and all the weapons found on one of the ships. This is unacceptable. How can you say they were unarmed?
