Freedom Flotilla II

35 years ago on July 4, 1976, my family celebrated Colorado's Centennial, and the United States of America’s Bicentennial with a group of Holocaust Survivors. We also watched, and waited as The Raid on Entebbe rescue was happening.  Remember the moment when the IDF stormed the airport, and freeing the hostages.  The world commented in awe at Israel’s act of heroism. The worlds Jewry stood as one.

35 years later, many Jewish activists, are standing-up against Israel and supporting the Apartheid, and the BDS movement. The BDS movement is behind the Freedom Flotilla II, and Freedom Flotilla II is currently acting restless in Greek waters. They’re restless, and have the Audacity to violate and be come terrorist thugs. Calling the kettle black…  The group supports a government that is crooked and does not supply aid to their own people. The Hamas commits acts of #anti-Semitism against #Israel and the #Jewish people. The world sympathizes with thugs, the very thugs that use their own people as human shields.

The acts of semitism are hurtful and when people deny the acts and skirt around the topic that's disgusting.  Most recently in the news, Roger Waters of Pink Floyd committed an act of anti-Semitism. He supports the BDS movement and he’s trying to punish the Jews. "My conviction is born in the idea that all people deserve basic human rights. My position is not anti-Semitic. This is not an attack on the people of Israel. This is, however, a plea to my colleagues in the music industry, and also to artists in other disciplines, to join this cultural boycott." (RW, JTA 2011). If that is not an act of anti-Semitism, then explain; and it’s sending the wrong message.

Who's supporting the movement, Archbishop Tutu, oddly, he’s the master of Apartheid, and Author/Poet Alice Walker. Ms. Walker is citing with the abused women of Palestine, and is on the ship the Audacity. However, if Ms. Walker was really serious in helping the abused women, she would not need a Flotilla escort. The Jewish activist from the United States are doing it on behalf of the IDF solider Shalit, their mission "Free Shalit."  Their act could cause far more harm then good.

The world is watching Palestine after the Arab Spring; the tables are turning against the hateful people of Palestine.  I mind you NOT ALL Palestinians are hateful and do not hate Israel.  When you have thugs that place innocent children and elderly as shields to get the point across, does that make Hamas heroes?  The Hamas thugs are feeling the pressure from other thugs in the region. The other thugs are Iran and the bomb, Lebanon and the killing of Hariri by Hezbollah and the order came from Narallah, Syria’s Bashar al-Assad and his Black Army, and right back to Palestine’s Hamas, the underground thugs for Iran.

The Mideast is complicated and when fools on boats stir the rough waters, it does not help the problem.  Why couldn’t aid have been handled through the UN, Egypt, or the Red Cross?  

These Freedom Flotilla II Activist need that time in the spotlight on the backs of innocent people of Palestine as shields for their own private agendas.  

Thank you Greece…  Greece is in the middle of a financial crisis and is helping thwart off disaster by not allowing the Freedom Flotilla II to set sail.   

Am Yisrael Chai, I am proud to be a Jewish American, and Happy Fourth of July

Addendum July 10, 2011,

The Freedom Flotilla II failed to sail, the activist started to fly into Israel and where detained at Ben Gurion Airport.  The mission then turned to Flightilla and all the radicals where deported to France, Germany and Switzerland. What's sad, is the people in Palestine did not get supplies promised by the activist, but Israel has been delivering the necessities. 

These Freedom Flotilla II Activist need this time in the spotlight on the backs of innocent people of Palestine as shields for their own private agendas.
