Outrageous..

There is very few words that you can think of to sum up the mood of world opinion in light of today’s act of state-sponsored terrorism by Israel on the Freedom Flotilla, some 60km west of the Israeli port of Ashdod.

Are we supposed to believe that the IDF are the fucking victims in this attack?  They had weapons – the protesters were defending themselves and they were massacred.  I see that Comical Ali lookalike – Mark Regev, is trying to say that this was proportional.  Like Jenin then...

When ships are boarded off the coast of Somalia it's called piracy.  Being boarded off Gaza it's called self defenceHow fucking convenient...

The response from countless governments the world over has been one of anger and bewilderment – some such as Sweden has expelled its ambassador, something that I implore the Foreign Office to do likewise.  Others are considering more stringent action.  As of now the US state department has not commented.  I wonder why...

There are demonstrations across the world springing right now, in support of the Flotilla, thousands are outside the Israeli embassy in London right now.  If the British government is not willing to condemn OUTRIGHT this act of terrorism, then we must take the fight to not just Israel but to the ConDem coalition.

Nick Clegg described the situation in Gaza in December last year as a “living nightmare for one and a half million Palestinians squeezed into one of the most overcrowded and wretched stretches of land on the planet”.

Over to you Mr Clegg...
