Israel Hijacks Aid cargo, executes hostages - Pak journo, Talat Hussain taken hostage

[Meengla]

I'm still not ready to be dragged into anti-semitism. This is not a war on Islam. This was not an anti-Muslim act. This is imperialist arrogance and imperialism from a country with a terrible human rights record and known to have no care for human rights.

Mullahocracy and right wing media in Pakistan has of course jumped the bandwagon, why won't they. People on the flotilla were there for purely humanitarian reasons. Pakistan's media is of course ripping off the right wing populist ideas and the conjured threat from Israel.

Every humanist is condemning it. Do not jump the anti-Islam bandwagon.

Sensible comments, as usual.

This is not about Islam vs XYZ. Israelis would really like to paint the whole picture with one broad brush but that is not cutting anymore in the Information Age. The old 'anti-semite' label has faded except perhaps it is still valid for the skin-heads and the right-wing nutjobs of faith.

Israeli occupation of the Palestinians is the last overt colonial war of the world as far as I know. And Palestinians have sympathies from all over the world. Some of the most prominent pro-Palestinian voices are--unsuprisingly--NOT Muslim.

Again, this latest media blunder by Israel will only hurt Israel. The parroting of 'facts' and 'dual condemnation' voices are likely to remain in minority. Get away from this blog and especially go the Israeli and Western/Non-Muslim blogspace to see the world reaction.

At the same time, we need to remain cautious about not giving anymore fire to the so-called Islamic radicals to take this issue too far and drag Pakistan into more terrorism. Palestinians' plight is, above all, a humanitarian issue and should not be looked through the lens of religion.

This is not a Humanitarian Mission but rather a propaganda mission and It seems that they have won this round.

A report saying a very young child died. What the heck that is child doing on that ship, its the carelessness and irresponsible nature of the organisers when they were quite aware of the kind of response from Israel.

I'm not going to argue with every single one of you. This was not a humanitarian mission!!!!!

Your query has been answered at least thrice in this thread. Please go through it.

somebody had to reach gaza and give them aid. israel have effectively blocked air , land and sea to gaza, they even didnt allow shipment of pasta, construction material etc to gaza. you guys are nothing but a bunch of hypocriticals.

the presence of that young child prove one thing!! and that is the lies of zionists that the ship had weapons. no any sane parent want his child to go on board in a warship.

Its time for Turkey to break its diplomatic love affair with this Apartheid, Racist and Terrrorist country Israel.

Iam sure there Ottaman 4fathers must be turning in there graves.

Iam still waiting to here official arab condemnation.

Turks were going to arab gaza, where the f**k the rest of arabs were.

In any future conflit between Arab and Israel, i will support Israel, dont ask me why ?

I want these current bread of arab's to go to h**l.

sparklingway bro, i am sick and tired of the excuse of anti semitism, nor i personlly condemning the isrealis because they are jewish, i condemn them because they are new age nazis. the zionists are like a child who was abused in his childhood and he became child abuser in his adulthood. ziionist do every crime under the mast and pretext of anti semitism.

Ahmad there is simply no point arguing with these guys, this has been going on since morning. Some of them are defending these horrific crimes, just because india and israerl are allies.

PS for those who are slow and dont understand properly, my comments above are not in condemnation of india. Nor am I blaming india for any thing. My comments are in condemnation of the indians who are condoning these acts either directly or indirectly.

Your choice. I choose to condemn both the organizers and the Israeli actions equally.

Look, in the eyes of criminal law provocation and murder are entirely different things. This was not criminally inciting murder either. Are you suggesting that if I walk into a gang alley and get stabbed then I should be as criminally liable as the person who stabbed me for I provoked him by going through a nobody's-owned area that happened to be by his den (analogy being roads as municipal owned and hence not private property and intl waters being out of Israel's sovereign boundaries). I might extend this logic to the wearing-skimpy-clothes-gets-you-raped argument as well. Utterly fallacious logic being used to condone violence based on sympathies for a nation with one of the worst human rights record on the planet.

The humanitarian mission had a clear message. They could have taken another route but Israel had to be given a message that the International community will not take more of its BS and let Israel control the situation entirely and dictate the routes taken by foreign aid missions.

They were in international waters. Had they been just a micrometer outside Israel's territorial or contiguous zones or exclusive economic zones, they still would have been under the sovereign jurisdiction of the flag they were flying.

I'm not taking the BS of the people being armed. It can most definitely be imagined that a couple would have gotten agitated and perhaps tried to manhandle an armed IDF soldier, who being trigger friendly and having no concern whatsoever of human life killed the people in response. It is beyond comprehension that they attacked the soldiers. Utterly beyond comprehension.

If you were to give blame on a scale of 1 to 10 then Israel gets a 9.8 and the aid convoy organizers 0.2.

I cannot imagine how you people can support such an utterly inhumane, cowardly attack and call yourselves sane, rational and reasonable humans. Perhaps geo-politics has polluted minds beyond reason and logic.

They will wait for an official version from the israeli gov and go with it. I wont be surprised if the white house sec comes out and claims that there were weapons on the ships.

What pisses me off is the fact that Jamat-e-Islami is now going to play the religion card and as can be seen are coming out in large numbers and protesting in karachi and all over Pakistan. These tool heads just need an excuse to bring religion into everything.

This is clearly a humanitarian issue not a religious one.. people in Pakistan need to control their anger. One of the silly comments i read was for an open invitation to War... as if this is in Pakistan's interest.
