Ok well I guess one of us will have to try a counter argument (we can't get any discussions going when we all agree).
The problem here is that Israel is right, this flotilla is little more than a provocation if they really were just about delivering aid there are multiple channels open to them including Egypt.
That being said I think there is also a valid argument that sometimes you have to be provocative in order to keep the worlds attention on something that they see is wrong and lets face it they know what Israel's response will be just another heavy handed bash-fest that will make the worlds media.
What we have are two intransigent parties who are determined to inflict their will on the other and in the end neither will win.
We are more often treacherous through weakness than through calculation. ~Francois De La Rochefoucauld |
