Like many others, I have learned of the Israeli boarding and confrontation with a flotilla of ships claiming to bring aid to Gaza and are of Turkish origin. Many fellow bloggers are quick to condemn Israel in their actions, but I disagree. I am not yet ready to side with one nation as of yet due to the lack of information on the complete picture of what happened, and I urge people to do the same. Recent reports from the scene have proven contradictory based on their sources, and I believe it wise to wait until verifiable intelligence is released.
If Israel indeed has attacked a humanitarian ship and caused the death of civilians, then I too will be "shocked" like many of those who denounced Israel's actions. However if the aid flotilla was indeed carrying weapons and terrorists supporting terrorist operations in Gaza, then Israel is surely justified in carrying out this preemptive strike against those who wish to harm her.
