I said the other day that I am fed up with the Israelis.
Today we have some more news from Israel: there has been an investigation into the events surrounding the Gaza Flotilla, which you may recall was intercepted by elements of the Israeli military, an interception that resulted in the deaths of nine Turks. Please note that the flotilla was attacked in International Waters, thus the attack was in a sense an act of piracy as I understand the meaning of the word.
The report states that the Israeli soldiers concerned are to be "absolved of blame."
Quelle surprise! (The Israelis are of course never to blame are they?)
So exactly WHO was responsible for the death of these nine innocent people?
The Telegraph report includes the following paragraph:
David Trimble, the former Northern Ireland first minister, one of the two non-voting foreign observers on the commision, said the panel members "were determined that the inquiry be rigorous."
Rigorous no doubt - to the extent that the "correct" conclusion will be reached.
Until the next time
