Juan Carlos Monge, who is assigned to accompany the fact-finding mission, says it is speaking with witnesses and government officials in Turkey and Jordan, but Israel hasn't granted the team an invitation. [IMG]http://gyazo.com/8cb6ea6376753dfa0ae280f40c637e4f.png[/IMG] Israel's UN mission said Tuesday it wasn't commenting on the investigation. Israeli commandos killed nine pro-Palestinian activists trying to break a maritime blockade of Gaza. Israel says the soldiers acted in self defense. A report will be presented to the council September 27. Another UN panel under New Zealand's ex-Prime Minister Geoffrey Palmer and Colombia's ex-President Alvaro Uribe is also examining the incident.[/quote] Surprised? But really any evidence given by Israel during the probe shouldn't be treated as 'truth', in fact, it should be treated the opposite. You cannot accept evidence without being given the opportunity to cross examine those who are giving the evidence. Otherwise, how do we know the evidence hasn't been made up by some bloke in the office next door to Barak's? Anyways,[URL="http://www.facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=983421"] Israel stated previously that they will quit[/URL] if it's soldiers must testify/be cross examined.
Surprised, not really. Caring anymore, hardly. People only keep it going because it's Israel.
[QUOTE=DogGunn;24313281]Surprised, not really. Caring anymore, hardly. People only keep it going because it's Israel.[/QUOTE] And why shouldn't it be kept going? It's pretty important.
[QUOTE=CheeseMan;24313429]And why shouldn't it be kept going? It's pretty important.[/QUOTE] Because 2 shitholes that fight each other will ultimately disappear and thus 1st world countries shouldn't care.
[QUOTE=FalconKrunch;24313578]Because 2 shitholes that fight each other will ultimately disappear and thus 1st world countries shouldn't care.[/QUOTE] Both Israel and Turkey are "1st world countries", and both have and will exist for a long time.
Israel has exsited since 1948, anyway Israel is just plain bullshit
[QUOTE=Mr.T;24313661]Israel has exsited since 1948, anyway Israel is just plain bullshit[/QUOTE] Turkey has existed since 1923. Both had history before their establishment as a country. You sure you're not bullshit?
[QUOTE=DogGunn;24313617]and both have and will exist for a long time.[/QUOTE] Turkey, sure. Israel? hahaha no.
[QUOTE=Melnek;24313752]Turkey, sure. Israel? hahaha no.[/QUOTE] What was that regarding? If it's to either, you're clearly ignorant.
I see DogGunn is already here, where's ohadje and BEM?
[QUOTE=IStanI;24314052]I see DogGunn is already here, where's ohadje and BEM?[/QUOTE] What am I doing "wrong"? I am certainly not supporting Israel.
[QUOTE=DogGunn;24313769]What was that regarding? If it's to either, you're clearly ignorant.[/QUOTE] I edited, and nope.
[QUOTE=Melnek;24314111]I edited, and nope.[/QUOTE] I stand by what I said. Turkey with US protection will exist for a long time. Israel with US protection will exist for a long time.

The soldiers look like the soldiers in prototype

[QUOTE=CheeseMan;24313429]And why shouldn't it be kept going? It's pretty important.[/QUOTE] Because the attention span of majority of the world for a major crisis usually only lasts 2-3 weeks at most. I mean hell, the BP oil spill still needs cleaned up, but since the well has been capped, no one gives two shits anymore. They barely gave one shit right before it was getting to be capped anyways.
Not surprised at this really. As soon as the US stops sucking Israel's dick the better off we'll be.

[QUOTE=JDK721v2;24324184] That's not a reason as to why it shouldn't be kept going.[/QUOTE] I meant it as why it won't, not why it shouldn't.
[QUOTE=JDK721v2;24317816]Is that why you posted in the thread?[/QUOTE] Totally.
[QUOTE=Earthen;24318310]The soldiers look like the soldiers in prototype[/QUOTE] That explains everything! The gaza flotilla people were infected with the Blacklight virus. So the Israeli soldiers had to board and eliminate the virus!
