Israeli forces storm Gaza aid ship, and beat people on board. Fatalities reported.

yeh, but to be fair, have you ever been attacked with a mop handle whilst you're been handling a glok-automatic? he probably shot the gut by mistake.....

as St Mel says

"The forces hurled stun grenades, yet the rioters on the top deck, whose number swelled up to 30 by that time, kept on beating up about 30 commandoes who kept gliding their way one by one from the helicopter. At one point, the attackers nabbed one commando, wrested away his handgun, and threw him down from the top deck to the lower deck, 30 feet below. The soldier sustained a serious head wound and lost his consciousness.

Only after this injury did Flotilla 13 troops ask for permission to use live fire. The commander approved it: You can go ahead and fire. The soldiers pulled out their handguns and started shooting at the rioters’ legs, a move that ultimately neutralized them. Meanwhile, the rioters started to fire back at the commandoes."

"neutralised"

now thats a succint term for it
 
Except they were 40 miles out to sea in international waters and were illegally attacked from above.

They were told even before they left Cyprus what would happen. One thing you know about the Israeli military, is that they mean it. The people on the ship knew for a certainty that they were going to be boarded by the Israeli military.
 
I never took you for a paranoid before. :confused:

I'm not, it's a bit of a wind up Johnny... But then, unlike sas, I managed it without smearing people. Hurry up and read what he wrote, you might realise why he got banned then.... Here to help.

As for paranoia, again I refer you to Sas, paranoia seems to be his middle name at present.
