Title: Hamas Gaza jihad flotilla organizers not humanitarian, wanted massacre for propaganda purposes

The Israel Navy this morning blocked the Hamas backed "Gaza Freedom Flotilla", a group of ships carrying up to 800 people from entering the Gaza Strip.

Israel was well aware that this was not a humanitarian love boat trek but rather an exercise in Islamic digital PR.

The organizers of the Palestine Flotilla to Gaza consisted of some of the worst global terror groups including Hamas, Islamic Jihad, al-Qaeda and their fund raisers the Turkish Humanitarian Relief Foundation.

What made this Palestine PR stunt or electronic Jihad exercise even more barbaric was the blatant use of volunteers on the ship who had good and true humanitarian intentions.

Some of these humanitarian volunteers were unaware that they were being used by the terror group Hamas as Hamas, Islamic Jihad and the Turkish Humanitarian Relief Foundation used both diplomats and volunteers from the UK, the US, Sweden, France, Germany and other countries as human shields as Hamas attacked a peaceful IDF boarding force with guns, knives and clubs.

Just before sunrise the IDF Navy intercepted six ships that were attempting to break the maritime closure of the Gaza Strip. Israel and the Israel Navy provided numerous warnings issued prior to the incident. The Israel Navy requested that the Hamas backed ships to redirect themselves towards Ashdod where they would be able to unload their aid supplies which would then be transferred to Gaza after undergoing security inspections.

Israel provides tons of food, water, medical supplies and fuel to Gaza on a daily basis. Israeli officials repeated that if this was a true humanitarian event, not a PR exercise, Hamas would have used the existing channels - the UN, the EU and Israel to transfer whatever cargo they had.

During the boarding of the Gaza flotilla ships, protesters onboard demonstrated that this was not a non violent event as they attacked IDF Naval personnel with live fire and light weaponry including knives and clubs.

"The Palestinian Gaza demonstrators had clearly prepared their weapons in advance for this specific purpose," the IDF told the Israel News Agency....

Israel was aware that Hamas true intent was to gather support for Islamic Jihad against Israel and all Western, democratic nations. The IDF knew that Hamas would not hesitate to use the flotilla volunteers as human shields and thus employed riot dispersal means.

Hamas, Islamic Jihad, al-Qaeda and the The Turkish Humanitarian Relief Foundation were responsible for murdering 10 demonstrators on the flotilla and injuring 7 Israel Defense Forces commandos, 2 of which remain in severe condition.

All of the injured from Israel and abroad are currently being evacuated by helicopter to hospitals in Israel.

In the coming hours, the Hamas backed Gaza flotilla ships will be directed to the port of Ashdod port, while the IDF naval forces perform security checks in order to identify the people on the ships and the cargo brought on board.

Israel security sources have told the Israel News Agency that the main organization behind the so-called "Gaza Freedom" flotilla is the Turkish Humanitarian Relief Foundation (IHH), a so-called "relief" organization from Turkey.

This is an organization which does not conceal its close ties to Hamas, a terror organization as recognized by the United States, Israel and the European Union (EU).

The Turkish Humanitarian Relief Foundation is openly supportive of Hamas, an organization that is widely seen as the one of the largest perpetrators of human rights violations, having violently seized control of the Gaza Strip, and committed immeasurable human rights violations against secular Palestine Arabs, not to mention hundreds of terror attacks initiated targeting the citizens of Israel.

Many find it odd that Turkey Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan supports the IHH in their attempt to break the maritime closure of the Gaza Strip and ranks the IHH's efforts as his "top priority" for the country. Turkey has withdrawn its ambassador to Israel and canceled three joint military drills as they keep a watchful eye on riots taking place at the entrance of Israeli ambassador's residence in Ankara - something they could have prevented.

The IHH has also provided aid to insurgents seeking to kill US troops in Iraq.

Not only have the IHH stirred trouble in Turkey for supporting terror, but their aims to promote terror activity have reached a worldwide level.

In 1996, phone records of the IHH showed calls to an Al Qaida guesthouse in Milan and to Algerian terror cells throughout Europe.

Sadly, much of the international media including the BBC, SKY News and CNN to Reuters, AP and AFP are not reporting the terror activity and present media public relations tactics of the IHH, as well as the long history of false NGO's created to divert funds to Islamic terror groups.

The IHH and organizations similar to it have always sought to generate PR publicity stunts of providing humanitarian aid in order to mobilize their extremist base and the "Freedom Flotilla" is yet another example of this.

"It's going to be a big scandal, no doubt about it," Benjamin Ben-Eliezer, the Israel trade minister, said in an interview in Doha, where he was on a visit to Qatar, one of the few Arab states where Israeli officials can travel.

"The whole thing was a provocation from its beginning. They planned it almost two months ago, and we tried all the way to explain to them: 'Gentlemen, don't try to do it because we have all the right to defend ourselves'," he said in English.

StandWithUs, a pro Israel, pro democracy group denounced the anti-Israel flotilla goals and lynching attempt.

"We regret the violence, unnecessary casualties, and loss of life instigated by the anti-Israel flotilla when it defied national and international law, and provoked a confrontation with Israel early this morning. It did not have to be like this," said StandWithUs Israel Director Michael Dixon.

"Israel has sought peace and compromise with its neighbors for all of its 62 years. However, Hamas terrorists and supporters, in an intentional provocation against Israel, violated international law, violently attacked Israeli military and security personnel with steel pipes, knives, rocks and, according to the most recent news reports, with gun fire, and provoked bloodshed."

As the the White House says it: "deeply regretted" the loss of life and injuries sustained in the clashes, those of us living in Israel remain committed to peace.

Israelis know that the Palestine people are being used and abused by Hamas and Islamic Jihad.

That they use civilians as human shields to create massacres and then attempt to secure PR for Islamic Jihad (holy war against Jews and Christians) - a very unhumanitarian, bloody act that has now transcended the dusty streets of Gaza and has found its way onto "Gaza peace ships" in the Mediterranean Sea.

Anti groupie is correct. Its 'unspinnable'...the video tape shows clearly who the aggressors are, its now known they wanted an 'incident' and they wanted to become 'marytr's'.

Next time, just sink the boats.
