Cynthia McKinney Kidnapped by IDF

ISRAEL ATTACKS JUSTICE BOAT; KIDNAPS HUMAN RIGHTS WORKERS; CONFISCATES MEDICINE, TOYS AND OLIVE TREES FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 30 June 2009 For more information contact: Greta Berlin (English) tel: +357 99 081 767 / friends@freegaza.org This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

You need JavaScript enabled to view it www.FreeGaza.org [23 miles off the coast of Gaza, 15:30pm] - Today Israeli Occupation Forces attacked and boarded the Free Gaza Movement boat, the SPIRIT OF HUMANITY, abducting 21 human rights workers from 11 countries, including Noble laureate Mairead Maguire and former U.S. Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney (see below for a complete list of passengers). The passengers and crew are being forcibly dragged toward Israel. "This is an outrageous violation of international law against us. Our boat was not in Israeli waters, and we were on a human rights mission to the Gaza Strip," said Cynthia McKinney, a former U.S. Congresswoman and presidential candidate. "President Obama just told Israel to let in humanitarian and reconstruction supplies, and that's exactly what we tried to do. We're asking the international community to demand our release so we can resume our journey." According to an International Committee of the Red Cross report released yesterday, the Palestinians living in Gaza are "trapped in despair." Thousands of Gazans whose homes were destroyed earlier during Israel's December/January massacre are still without shelter despite pledges of almost $4.5 billion in aid, because Israel refuses to allow cement and other building material into the Gaza Strip. The report also notes that hospitals are struggling to meet the needs of their patients due to Israel's disruption of medical supplies. "The aid we were carrying is a symbol of hope for the people of Gaza, hope that the sea route would open for them, and they would be able to transport their own materials to begin to reconstruct the schools, hospitals and thousands of homes destroyed during the onslaught of "Cast Lead". Our mission is a gesture to the people of Gaza that we stand by them and that they are not alone" said fellow passenger Mairead Maguire, winner of a Noble Peace Prize for her work in Northern Ireland. Just before being kidnapped by Israel, Huwaida Arraf, Free Gaza Movement chairperson and delegation co-coordinator on this voyage, stated that: "No one could possibly believe that our small boat constitutes any sort of threat to Israel. We carry medical and reconstruction supplies, and children's toys. Our passengers include a Nobel peace prize laureate and a former U.S. congressperson. Our boat was searched and received a security clearance by Cypriot Port Authorities before we departed, and at no time did we ever approach Israeli waters." Arraf continued, "Israel's deliberate and premeditated attack on our unarmed boat is a clear violation of international law and we demand our immediate and unconditional release."

sh*t! internet was down, just reading this now.
first thing that comes to mind is if Iran did this imagine how it would be rammed/portrayed down the throat of the western world! if the western world had a non bias msm i would say this was a major blunder..... the other thing that comes to mind is did they get permission/green lighted from America with a promise of a media black out?

Gaza is a place of utter despair. I can't believe the world looks the other way.

moving in for the kill
20 years ago if a political figure like McKinney had been so treated it would have been a huge scandal
the concentration of media ownership means they are fairly confident that they can mistreat any one they want and keep it out of the media and out of the knowledge of anyone its all a test , pushing the boundaries , the US public is now effectively blinded , deaf and dumb, , and is like a lamb being led to the slaughter helpless without houses jobs , money , food , fuel , dependent on charity americans as a rule really cruelly discipline family members who give money to bums, they punch, cajole , lecture , the depth of the evil i have seen in america is astonishing there is an evil spirit abroad there , of meanness, cruelty , pointless hatred , perverted sexuality , ruthless exploitation compared to what the americans are in for the gazans will consider themselves lucky lars

i take you would agree that a bill to ban private ownership or a bill to control personal weapons will be the trigger or one month count down to crack down lars?
do you expect isolated incidents or mass riots? or isolated precedents resulting in mass riots? its the trigger im waiting on seeing, it signals to me that the ptb feel confident to enter the last phase or are using it as a last ditch effort to hold on to hidden power.

Our loving Churnalist Andrew Bolt did a tour around Israel-Palestine recently..so he'll be over this like Oprah on a baked ham.
I predict he'll call McKinney a leftist-conspiratorial extremist and liken her to Von Brunn.
