More lies and make up stories to defend the terrorist act of the Israel Navy commando who shot to death 9 unarmed volunteers which was on the Mavi Marmara.
The Navy Rear-Admiral hinted that a repeat of what happened in Mavi Marmara could happen to the new flotillas from Iran in an article published in The Jerusalem Post titled "Navy braces for next flotillas" dated 15th June 2010.
Navy Rear-Admiral Rani Ben-Yehuda defended the Navy commando raid on the Mavi Marmara Turkish passenger ship two weeks ago, which ended with nine dead passengers, all of whom, according to the IDF, were hired mercenaries.
“We expected light resistance but never expected to meet a group of terrorists,” he said, adding however that in the final analysis the operation could be deemed a success.
“No innocent people were killed, only the terrorists,” he said. “When you go into a building that terrorists have taken over and you kill the terrorists, this is also a success.”
IRNA, the official Iranian news agency reported on Monday that 2 Iranian cargo ships carrying humanitarian aid for Gaza will leave next week; one will be sailing via Istanbul while another flotilla is to leave Lebanon for the Gaza Strip.
“I recommend that humanitarian activists who are planning on participating in these new flotillas think very hard because they cannot know who is on these ships,” he said. “We believe that there will be groups that will try to cause provocations and repeat what happened on the Marmara.”
