HUMANITY?

Update
It looks like most of the peace activists held since Monday are now being released either back to Turkey or to their own countries.

However, some activists are still being held by the Israelis. It is still not sure if they are all Arab-Israelis.

Abid Mahi - A British film maker is also amongst the activists in the flotilla. He has not yet arrived back in Britain.


A full list of those who were killed has not yet been confirmed but it is thought that most were of Turkish nationality.


Reports today are saying that 10 PEACE activists were killed (read murdered), by Israeli commandos on the peace flotilla that was heading towards Gaza. This is a despicable act of state terror towards civilians. Israel is already operating an apartheid system in Palestine and has no qualms in murdering innocent men, women and children in the name of security.

Israel seems to get away with everything it does without any real condemnation or action from the International community including 'Muslim' countries in the Middle East.

For us ordinary people, apart from writing to our MPs and raising awareness of what is going on in Palestine, we can try to boycott any Israeli goods that we come across in protest.

Attack in Pakistan

Last week, two Ahmadiya mosques in Lahore were targetted by terrorists leaving 70 worshippers dead. It leaves me asking what did this achieve? It leaves me asking what makes us human?

  1. Interesting to see only 34 dedicated to an attack where 70 people died compared to 210 for one where a fraction of the number died.
