In another act of brutality and provocation, the Israeli Navy this morning opened fire on Gazan fishermen, sailing WITHIN the 6 mile nautical limit imposed as part of the blockade.
Please, if anyone out there has any justification for this, I'd love to hear it, or is it yet another example of an occupier using extreme violence to remind an oppressed population who's boss?
Ever since Israel was founded its neighbours have been less than friendly and on several occasions downright belligerent - though thankfully to an incompetent degree.
These neighbours set the tone for the relationship and continue to do so, and it is entirely natural for Israel to respond in a robust, responsible and
caring manner which reflects its perfectly justifiable and rational lack of trust it has in the surrounding population.
