[QUOTE]Israel's navy has shot and killed four Palestinians wearing diving gear off the Gaza coast, officials say.
The Israeli military says it believes those on board were planning a "terrorist attack".
Hamas officials in Gaza say four bodies have been recovered and two people are missing.
It comes a week after nine pro-Palestinian activists died in an Israeli raid on an aid flotilla trying to break Israel's blockade of Gaza, Israel controls and occupies the sea off the coast of Gaza despite having withdrawn its forces from the territory in 2005.
The country's Haaretz newspaper quoted an Israeli army source as saying the incident took place at about 0430 local time (0130 GMT) and that the boat was heading north to Israel from waters off the Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza.
Israeli media is reporting that helicopters were involved in the operation.The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) said there were no Israeli casualties.
The BBC's Jon Donnison, in the West Bank town of Ramallah, says it is not yet clear exactly what has happened but it is not uncommon for the Israeli navy to open fire on fishing boats it feels are too far out at sea, he adds.
There has also been sporadic rocket fire out of Gaza into Israel since that raid a week ago.[/QUOTE]

[B]-Please can a mod lock this thread, I'll post it in the Israel megathread.-[/B]
The bit about the helicopters is extremely helpful and adds to the newstory greatly. Without this sentence, I wouldn't be able to appreciate this!
I think you missed the thread which says any more Israel threads will = a ban.

You just want to conceal all Israel's crimes, don't you?

All you do is post sarcastic posts. Seriously, just get out while you can.
Anything that you say is not worth replying to.
if you've ever seen his posts regarding Israel's actions
DogGunn is right people

What difference would it make if this was posted in the thread or in here?

no, and that wasn't sarcasm.
[QUOTE=JDK721;22434191]no, and that wasn't sarcasm.[/QUOTE]
... "another israeli apologist" - sounds like sarcasm to me. Or if you're serious, and that's your arguing point, then you should probs find another one.
This was probably justified, I mean they could have been super hamas anti-israel pro-terrorism sympatizers! Better shoot them dead to be on the safe side.

Though it is obvious your post is satirical, I don't see how murder isn't news worthy.

If we make a thread every time an Israeli kills a Palestinian or vice versa, we're going to need a new subforum.

think about that for a minute

So we should simply ignore the crimes of Israel?

No, but we don't need to make a thread every time it happens. I bet the US kills just as many civilians than Israel does.
[QUOTE=Mr. Scorpio;22434567]think about that for a minute[/QUOTE]
Except, most would just be multiple news sources about the same event, as we've seen over the past week.

Yeah.
[QUOTE=Mingebox;22434694]Yeah.[/QUOTE]
Too bad, we're all out of "get-a-free killing" cards for Israel.
