- Go to IS ISRAEL'S WORLD REPUTATION WORSENING?
It's not that Israel is always right -- they've violated international law
at times -- the settlements, other things.
This is a case of public perception, where many media take a one-side approach. In this case, the flotilla should have submitted to inspection. The alternative story says they refused, thus evoking what I can see as an appropriate Israeli action.
More on the entire situation later.

Re:
Yes, Israel is expected not to defend itself, yet the scum of the earth get a free pass. Israel did the right thing. As you said, the video proves who was right and once again who was wrong. I tire of everyone taking the Palestinian/terrorist side when it comes to Israel. There are many Jew haters out there, always has been. Just look at the title of this post. Apparently defending your country equals your reputation worsening...lol...just another dense liberal thought. To liberals, the worse things is to be not liked, even though someone is trying to kill you and your way of life. Stupid, I know. Then again, this is a true pacifist comment. Let the video speak for itself. Thanks xeno for showing the world that Israel was right in what they did as they are always.

Good thing there are video accounts of what actually happened on this "PEACE" Flotilla: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bU12KW-XyZE&feature=youtu.be Taken from the Israeli helicopter. The Israeli soldiers were expecting non-violence, and look what happened. As I've said before - Israel is the only country on earth that is not allowed to defend itself. It gave this flotilla plenty of time to divert to another port where the cargo could be inspected. The Turks lied about being non-violent. What else are they lying about??
