Phil you should know better ! The Daily Wail has a well recorded history of Anti - Semetism.
Israel has a right to exist, and defend her people.

GW, The Daily Mail is not my favourite newspaper either.
Of course Israel has a right to exist, and to defend her people.
But the bloodbath caused by an aggressive heli-drop on a relief convoy by armed soldiers in international waters in the middle of the night was little to do with defence.
To most decent people, it appears as I (not the Mail) described as an arrogant murderous atrocity.
That's why the world is urging Israel to lift the blockade of Gaza - and why the Israeli action has been widely condemned - not just in the Daily Mail!
It sickens me to think that a nation built after the Holocaust can deliberately inflict suffering, hardship and death on their neighbours.
Rubbish, the IDF acted with restraint.
Following a refusal to heave to for inspection most navies would have opened fire.
600 people to hand over releaf supplies ? Who are they trying to kid ?

The autopsies point not to restraint, but point-blank execution by gun-shots to the head and face.
