TWO WEEKS PAST SHAVUOUS, MEMORIAL DAY IN THE U.S.A., AND ALL IS NOT WELL ....

GILAD SHALIT IS STILL CAPTIVE, IT IS DAY 1459 OF HIS CAPTIVITY, AND YESTERDAY THE "AVI MAMARA INCIDENT" TOOK PLACE IN WHICH HAMAS USED A SO-CALLED "PEACE FLOTILLA" TO PROVOKE AN INTERNATIONAL EVENT INVOLVING THE ISRAELI NAVY.

Nine so-called "civilians" were killed by Israeli commandos, who boarded the Turkish flag-flying ship "Avi Mamara", when the Avi Mamara refused to follow Israeli Navy instructions to change course away from Gaza and towards Ashdod, Israel, where the cargo of "humanitarian aid" could be unloaded and delivered into Gaza via existing channels such as the Red Cross and the U.N. Five of the six ships of the "Peace Flotilla" had already agreed to Israel's humanitarian gesture. The sixth ship, the Avi Mamara, insisted on provoking an incident by giving priority to running the Israeli blockade of Gaza rather than to delivering the humanitarian aid with Israeli cooperation.

The political consequences do not look good for Israel at the moment, even though the military necessity of the raid is clear and obvious. An act of war (attempting to run the blockade) was promoted by Hamas against Israel. But, the world is so drunk and infatuated with the Arab Cause, the imminent possibility of a nuclear hangover originating in Iran is not taken seriously by the world.
