Israeli inquiry finds raid justified
"An Israeli military inquiry found no wrongdoing or negligence in the navy's raid on a Gaza-bound aid flotilla, but said intelligence and operational mistakes led to the deaths of nine Turkish activists.
A civilian panel is conducting a separate inquiry into the May 31st raid that triggered an international outcry, strained Israel's relations with its once-close Muslim ally Turkey and forced the Jewish state to ease its land blockade on Gaza.
"The inquiry found that on the one hand there were no wrongdoings and no negligences in any fundamental areas during a complicated and complex operation," Giora Eiland, a retired Israeli general who headed the military inquiry said today.
"But on the other hand there were mistakes that were made in decisions, including some taken at relatively high levels, which meant that the result was not as had been initially anticipated," Mr Eiland told reporters at the Ministry of Defence in Tel Aviv, where he released his report into the incident.
Israel says its troops acted in self-defence in opening fire on passengers who attacked them with metal rods and knives.
It also says the interception was neccessary to enforce a naval blockade designed to prevent arms shipments from reaching Hamas, the Islamist group that controls the Gaza Strip."

What a surprise! You would have expected all those commie Jews to castigate the military thuggies. But no, obviously there must have been no wrongdoing, or else we would have heard about it on CNN.
Everything Israel does is eventually justified by Israel.
