Trying again: Gaza-bound 'women's flotilla' setting sail from Barcelona
|
| This is the fourth or fifth try -- does anyone beyond the participants even notice anymore? |
[Jpost] The small fleet of 2 vessels is slated to carry thirty women from various nations, including Israel, with the aim of breaching Israel's naval blockade of the Strip.
Despite the recent reconciliation of ties between Israel and The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire....
, it appears that the controversial Gazoo-bound flotilla movement has yet to subside.
An activist flotilla sailing under the banner "Mujeres Rumbo a Gazoo" (Women's Boat to Gazoo) was set to anchor off from Barcelona on Wednesday evening toward the Gazoo Strip.
The small fleet of two vessels was slated to carry thirty women from various nations, including Israel, with the aim of breaching and boycotting Israel's naval blockade of the coastal Paleostinian enclave.
Meanwhile,
...back at the shouting match, a new, even louder, voice was to be heard...
Israel was prepared to thwart the flotilla from illegally infringing on the maritime blockade of Gazoo, which was established in 2007 following the terrorist group Hamas, the well-beloved offspring of the Moslem Brotherhood,'s takeover of the Strip.
A diplomatic source on Sunday told The Jerusalem Post's Hebrew sister publication Ma'ariv that the Foreign Ministry was doing its utmost to deal with the matter. The source added that the ministry's efforts sought to minimize possible diplomatic and media harm caused by the flotilla.
Israel and Egypt have also implemented a ground and aerial blockade of Gazoo to thwart weapons and rocket materials from reaching the hands of terrorist entities.
With the capacity to haul 15 passengers each, the Amal (Hope) and the Zaytouna (Olive) sail boats were expected to dock at various ports on their journey across the Mediterranean. After setting sail from Barcelona following two days of anti-Israel events and lectures, the boats were slated to first stop in Corsica.
Among the pro-Paleostinian activists due to board the vessels were European Parliament member Malin Bjork from Sweden, retired US army colonel Ann Wright and doctor Fouzia Hassan from Malaysia.
Among the Israeli nationals expected to take part in the flotilla was the media spokeswoman for controversial Arab-Israeli MK Haneen Zoabi (Joint List), who was on the 2010 Turkish Mavi Marmara flotilla.
In June, Israel and Turkey mended a six-year rift sparked by the Mavi Marmara incident, in which 10 Turkish citizens were killed attacking Israeli commandos.
Israel fears such flotillas could be used to transport materials to Gazoo that could be used by forces of Evil to manufacture weapons and murderous Moslem infrastructure.
Last June, the Israeli Navy intercepted a Swedish flotilla boat off the coast of Gazoo without incident and towed the vessel into the Ashdod Port.
