    Yes, people were smuggling goods through the internationally recognized waters administered by Israel. When the IDF boarded the ship to stop the smuggling they were attacked by a group of the passengers. While unfortunate, it was legal to defend themselves. I will say that the IDF should have done more to prevent the escalation to the point that people didn’t get killed, but that would likely have required an even larger show of force.

    Justifying murder very cool. The law say to only use enough force necessary. Murdering with live ammunition is not

    The loss of life and injuries resulting from the use of force by Israeli forces
    during the take-over of the Mavi Marmara was unacceptable. Nine passengers were
    killed and many others seriously wounded by Israeli forces. No satisfactory
    explanation has been provided to the Panel by Israel for any of the nine deaths.
    Forensic evidence showing that most of the deceased were shot multiple times,
    including in the back, or at close range has not been adequately accounted for in the
    material presented by Israel.

      It’s interesting you used that quote because I also used it in another response. The difference is that you failed to note that the report activists took the weapons of the IDF and shot 2 of the soldiers and 7 other soldiers were injured. In case you want to read it yourself, that would be item 124 on page 57.

      Interestingly I have found this report by the Meir Amit Intelligence and Terrorism Information Center which includes very detailed accounts of the attack including photos and soldier statements. I’m not going to reference or use anything from here because I assume most people will disregard it because it comes from an Israeli source. Either way, you should still check it out.

              So because it is funded by the Israeli government it can’t be used? Did you actually look at the report? It includes pictures of the “activists” beating the soldiers as the rappel onto the ship, photos from Turkish Journalist Sefik Dinç, youtube videos uploaded by the “activists”, and pictures from the “activists” of the soldiers bleeding from their heads while the “activists” smile and hold them in place.

              I mean, I’m all for calling out propaganda and looking at where information is coming from (that’s like 90% of what I do here), but when one side has pictures and videos that the other side provided I’m a bit inclined to believe them. I put a lot of skepticism in the interviews included in the report, but when the IDF says they were attacked by the “activists”, they provide pictures and videos taken by the “activists” attacking the soldiers, the Turkish government says that the “activists” attacked the soldiers, and the UN Panel that investigated it says that the “activists” attacked the soldiers… I don’t know, maybe it’s true and not just IDF propaganda?

                  Ok, I’m done with you. You’re either deliberately stupid or actually so. You seem to have no ability to engage in rationale debate and your ability to source and cite information is on a high school level. Go back to your echo chamber and enjoy the sound of your own voice.

          No I didn’t? Why would I need to note it again when you literally just said it and then I said I had used the same quote? That is by definition noting it.
