WILL ISRAEL COMMIT ACTS OF PIRACY AGAIN?

Scores of human rights activists are putting their lives on the line as they seek to sail two ships from Cyprus to Gaza. Israel has threatened them with military attack.

That is piracy, often condemned as such when committed by other actors such as off the coast of Somalia.

However Israel's blockade of Gaza by land, sea and air is regarded as an exception to the rule at least by
a majority of American Zionists.

Of course a number of Israeli activists are involved as are some American Jews. They are putting their lives on the line for peace, justice and an end to the blockade of Gaza.
