Blatant lies by Israel PM

Netanyahu said they successfully vetted the first five ships in the convoy, but the sixth and largest ship didn't co-operate ‹and "deliberately attacked" Israeli troops.

"They were mobbed, they were clubbed, they were beaten, stabbed, it was even reported there was gunfire," he said. "Our soldiers had to defend themselves, defend their lives, or they would be killed.

"Regrettably in this exchange, at least 10 people died. We regret this loss of life. We regret any of the violence that was there."

“Two Turkish nationals, one on my right and the other on my left, were shot in the arm and hand. I managed to escape and crawled to safety on the deck which was covered in blood.

“I did not see any sharp weapons like knives, machetes, swords and so on being used, but volunteers merely used water from hoses to stop the commandos from boarding the ship.

“It was indeed a painful experience. It was an eye-opener to the world. I did not expect Israel to act in such a way because we were civilians on board but were subjected to military action,” he reported live over the private television station from Jordan where he and 11 other Malaysians had arrived safely yesterday.

Astro Awani reporter Ashwad Ismail recalled the horrifying experiences on the assignment to cover a convoy of six vessels delivering aid to 100,000 Palestinians.

On behalf of the group, Noor Azman recounted Monday's attack to those present, saying that Israel's version of events was pure fabrication.

He dismissed Israel's assertion that those on board the ship were bent on violence.

"How can this be when among them were a two-and-a-half-month-old baby and those aged above 80. Nobody will bring a baby along if their intention is to terrorise other people," Noor Azman said.
