Anyone know the latest on the Freedomwaves Gaza Flotilla?
I just found this pretty good report by democracy now http://www.democracynow.org/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Communication has been lost with the boats & Ive read on twitter that israeli occupation forces have boarded the boats in international waters (again)

Theres reports that all the activists among them journalists have been detained /arrested.

The blockade is bullshit and I'm against it but this is like the 11th flotilla that's been stopped. They aren't getting through with cheap boats full of activists. The only way through is if they had a naval escort, which would mean a showdown on the high seas.

It's a wonder that they haven't sent a naval escort by now, especially since Turkey seemed to have been saying that they would. I guess that was all just hot air. However, it can only function as a distraction if the corporate media diverted a disproportional amount of its attention to it, yet they don't seem to be mentioning it much at all.

what they need to bring is a media ship not an escort.

way* X'D
