Now, if they can just figure out a way to keep her:
At around noon Tuesday the Israeli Navy intercepted and took control of a boat that had set sail for the Gaza Strip with three tons of medical supplies, Palestinian sources said, adding that the Navy jammed the boat’s radio signals.
The IDF Spokesperson’s Office confirmed the report. Israeli military sources said there was no violence after the small ferry, sailing from Cyprus with activists from the US-based Free Gaza Movement, was intercepted off Gaza…
…The boat is also carrying 21 peace activists, including former US Congresswoman Cynthia Ann McKinney (D-GA) and Nobel Peace Prize laureate Mairead Maguire.
If the Israelis can’t keep her, perhaps we can trade her to the Palestinians for something equally valuable…like a bootleg Barry Manilow tape…and it can be on 8 track, we’re not too picky.

You do understand that medical supplies save lives, right? Or do the Gazans somehow have less of a right to life than everyone else?
Yeah, everybody knows that the poursuit of peace, and medical humanitarian aid, falls under the domain of “kookery”. After all, real men love war and find it a goal in itself!
I just threw up in my mouth a little.
You’re kidding, right? Wouldn’t your war god Jesus want sick people to get medicine? Does your hatred of “liberals” preclude any compassion for the oppressed? Mark, I’m sure you’re not a bad guy, and I can understand the Israelis checking the boat for weapons, but please, think before you post, this one makes you look like an idiot…
It was an act to embarrass Isreal, If the palis had accepted the land in the 1940’s all would be well.
Maybe we can give them Joe Biden for her.
Neocon,
It has nothing to do with helping the sick, and injured and those of in dire need? You’ve never heard of humanitarian aid have you?
“It was an act to embarrass Isreal…” Never heard of it. If you’re a staunch supporter of I s r a e l, at least have the common courtesy of spelling the country’s name right.
