After a week of what appears to be biased media reporting on the Israeli/Turkey incident - I just don't get it,
Seems that humanitarian aid has been flowing to Gaza for some time - and always with approved Israeli inspection before delivery. The agency in charge of this particular shipment of "humanitarian aid" didn't want to be inspected. why? What were they hiding?
Hmmm - wonder what would happen if I sailed through security at the airport - saying - hey - I'm not going to blow anything up - just let me through and don't look at my stuff. After all - I'm a frequent flyer and I do this all the time. I'm sure everyone would be in an uproar if I persisted in barging through the barriers on my way to the plane; we might notice more than a few pistols drawn. And everyone would understand - since we're concerned about our country's security.
But when Israel wants to inspect this ship with cargo provided by an agency which seeks to aid Palestinians,(including Hamas - known for its goal to obliterate Israel) and they're told they can't.....? They're supposed to smile and say - ok guys - just sail right through? Israel's security, defense of country is different than ours?
Am I missing something?
