The Gaza Flotilla: One Reporter for Every Three Radical Leftists

A Haaretz article entitled "Gaza flotilla to set sail Monday despite numerous setbacks" (http://www.haaretz.com/news/diplomacy-defense/gaza-flotilla-to-set-sail-monday-despite-numerous-setbacks-1.371050) has this to say about the American ship, Audacity of Hope, which was forced back to port by the Greek coast guard after leaving Perama without clearance from the Greek authorities:

"The ship was carrying 51 passengers, including five members of the crew and 11 journalists."

Translation: There is one journalist for every three radical leftists on board!

Even more absurd, eight of the aging activists from this ship have started a hunger strike in order to force the Greek government to allow them to sail. No one is hungry in Gaza, but these buffoons are apparently starved for attention and seeking to feed their own vanity and narcissism.

See for yourselves the abhorrent, shell pocked, concentration camp conditions that prevail throughout Gaza, which these "activists" are rabidly protesting:



Did you see any emaciated faces? This would appear to be one of those peculiar instances where you can't have your cake and not eat it, too.

  2. Not enough Dutch blood in American veins:

    "...As a result of the organizers’ extremism exposed by these reports [1], all of the Dutch journalists scheduled to sail to Gaza quit, complaining of the flotilla’s “dictatorial atmosphere, paranoia and mutual distrust.” ...

    America's media is so polarized that one has to read conservative blogs in order to get a sense of what might be happening when Israel is involved.
