Remember that old joke about the Jewish kid who murdered his parents
then asked for clemency on the grounds that he was an orphan? Here is
the real life version.

Israeli officials say they are willing to pay compensation to the
families of the Gaza Flotilla victims, and express sorrow over what
happened. Now here comes the but -


"They want it spelled out that the commandos who boarded the flotilla
were acting in self-defense. And they want whatever deal emerges to
end the United Nations inquiry and other international legal
actions."


Oh, is that all?


Any compensation will of course be paid for out of US aid - by dint
of
which the Zionist entity exists - as happened in the 1967 USS Liberty
incident. And as for expressing sorrow, this does not extend to
holding the murderers accountable for their crimes in an
international
court of law, instead, the men who boarded a ship in the fashion of
pirates shooting at their victims with automatic machine guns are to
be portrayed as acting in self-defence.


Are these Israeli officials the same ones who distributed a video
parody of the Michael Jackson song "Heal The World" which portrayed
the victims as terrorists, and mocked them, including the nine men
the
Israeli commandoes murdered?


Probably, as the saying goes, you couldn't make it up. But the time
has come to say enough is enough; this crime against the world on the
high seas must not be permitted to go unpunished, as the Gaza
Massacre
almost certainly will.
