Flotilla
Flotilla
As per Phyllis Chesler: It (the flotilla) is something that Orwell would appreciate. The flotilla activists do not care about the facts on the ground, they refuse to understand that Gaza is filled with luxury hotels, office buildings, palatial villas, nightclubs, beach clubs, and well-stocked markets.

CAIR Taps Hizballah Apologist for Tampa Office (IPT News)
The Economics of Settlement - George Gilder (The American Spectator) To most sophisticated Westerners, the jihadist focus on the annihilation of Israel may appear bizarre and counterproductive....U.S. strategy has slid into total incoherence, drifting from a futile and deadly funambulism among the tribes of Afghanistan to propping up the Lebanese Army (i.e., Hezbollah) with sophisticated night-fighting gear to be used against no other target than Israel, and enhancing the Palestinian police forces with $100 million in new equipment and training assistance, all the while pretending to the overwhelmingly pro-Israel American electorate that it is, in fact, guaranteeing the military superiority of Israel. This feckless and reckless attempt at a "fairness doctrine" balancing act places the United States and the entire Middle East on a path that can only lead to a new war that such a Janus-faced policy, in which America arms both sides, will make at once more likely and more lethal.
