Boat Carrying Cynthia McKinney being Attacked by Isreali Navy 12:45am
From the Free Gaza Movement:
(This is the sixth boat that the Free Gaza movement has sent to Gaza … in a symbolic effort to end the seige of Gaza. These are small boats, and they do not cross into Israeli waters at all. This Israeli attack on the boat, which occured in international waters, cannot be described as ’self defence’ by any stretch of delusional imagination.
CNN has report on this–it helps that one CNN reporter is on board– : http://edition.

===============================================
URGENT! Israeli Navy Attacking Civilian Mercy Ship! TAKE ACTION IMMEDIATELY!
The Dignity, a Free Gaza boat on a mission of mercy to besieged Gaza, is being attacked by the Israeli Navy in international waters. The Dignity has been surrounded by at least half-a-dozen Israeli warships. They are firing live ammunition around the Dignity, and one of the warships has rammed the civilian craft causing an unknown amount of damage. Contrary to international maritime law, the Israelis are actively preventing the Dignity from approaching Gaza or finding safe haven in either Egypt or Lebanon. Instead, the Israeli navy is demanding that the Dignity return to Cyprus – despite the fact that the ship does not carry enough fuel to do so. Fortunately, no one aboard the ship has yet been seriously injured.
There are 15 civilian passengers representing 11 different countries (see below for a complete list). At approximately 5am (UST), well out in international waters, Israeli warships began surrounding the Dignity, threatening the ship. At 6:45am (UST) we were able to establish brief contact with the crew and were told that the ship had been rammed by the Israeli Navy in international waters, and that the Israelis were preventing the ship from finding safe harbor. We heard heavy gunfire in the background before all contact was lost with the Dignity.
It is urgent that you TAKE IMMEDIATE ACTION!
CALL the Israeli Government and demand that it immediately STOP attacking the Dignity and endangering the lives of its passengers!

BACKGROUND INFORMATION
The Dignity departed from Larnaca Port in Cyprus at 7pm (UST) on Monday 29 December, bound for war-devastated Gaza with a cargo of over 3 tons of desperately needed medical supplies donated by the people of Cyprus. At our request, the ship was searched by Cypriot Port authorities prior to departure, to certify that there was nothing “threatening” aboard – only emergency medical supplies.

Thank you to Black …
Thank you to Black Americans for having the courage to stand up to racism around the world not just in the US.
The statement “Never Again” should mean never will we as human beings allow one group, cultural, racial, religious or any other category be singled out and attacked by any other gorup.

mikedd56:
Isn’t “racist” a relative term in this case?
Arch-Bishop Desmond Tutu, the South Africa man of peace described Israeli policy toward Paelstinians as “worse than Apartheid.”
Can we blame honest Black Americans when they see first hand how Palestinians are treated by Israel, then condemn Israel as a state founded on racist ideology?
Tens of thousands of Black Americans have fought in Iraq for Israeli objectives now you deny them freedom of speech.
Is that reasonable?

Actually her boat wasnt hijacked. The israeli’s tried to stop her from coming into their territory but she wouldnt and the israeli boat tried to go around her boat but ran into it b/c she wouldnt move. Your obviously not smart enough to realize that she wants nothing more than a confrontation with israeli navy so she can go on t.v. and complain about isreal

On June 8, 1967, US Navy intelligence ship USS Liberty was suddenly and brutally attacked on the high seas in international waters by the air and naval forces of Israel. The Israeli forces attacked with full knowledge that this was an American ship and lied about it. Survivors have been forbidden for 40 years to tell their story under oath to the American public. The USS Liberty Memorial web site tells their story and is dedicated to the memory of the 34 brave men who died.

America need a second party like the green party, because the democrats and the republican party in reality in one party on the same coin; heads you lose and tails I win. Their is no win for the American public. America People change your party that will serve the American Public. Israel runs both party where the Congress and Senate will never take a stand against Israel atrocity against the Palestian People. President Carter made some comments about Israel but his comment is not found in news.
