Stacy Summary: I’ve been asked by a user of the site to remain silent on Israeli crimes for fear of dragging out the usual cast of ignorant, neanderthal nazis (half of whom I know are paid to be so). I believe it is exactly this silence for fear of the neanderthals (faux and real), however, that has resulted in this shocking impunity. So, please note, that ignorant f*%ks and provocateurs will be banned forever from commenting on this site. If you want freedom to speak your ignorance freely, then go create your own site where you can drag your knuckles freely. For others, this is a jibber jabber thread and a place to post links to news items as and when new information emerges about what has happened with this flotilla in international waters off Gaza. **UPDATE** – Did Twitter censor the #flotilla hashtag following the Israel attack? **UPDATE** – Nato ally, Turkey, threatens action ** UPDATE ** Turkey tries to invoke mutual defense doctrine, according to Faisal Islam Mutual defense doctrine here, Articles 5 & 6.1
