Muhamad Ali Nurani, Deputy Secretary General of the Society to Defend Palestinian People, said that an Iranian aid ship will be setting sail today to the besieged Gaza Strip.

The ship will carry as well as humanitarian aid a number of MPs, doctors, students and sports-persons.

Al-Alam satellite channel quoted Nurani as saying that a land convoy will make its way to Khoramshahr where aid will be loaded on the ship and the ship will sail through Boshahar and Bandar Abbas, then Oman, Yemen and Egypt to Gaza.

He added that the aid carried on the ship includes food, medical equipment and construction materials.

Good old pacifist Turkey. Nothing like dropping a few bombs on the Kurds. Hypocrycy springs to mind

The news item did not say that Iran was sending a ship! It said an Iranian ship was being sent by the Society to Defend Palestinian People.

probably includes missiles, ammo, ak47s and a few dead and rotting pigs for good measure

the puppeteers really are having some of the best (pork)belly-laughs they've had in years

So Iran has a lousy humanitarian history just as Israel has.

Neither of the records justify what has or is happening.

Cynic,

I thought this thread was below your interest.

Made a mistake, probably above it.

what or even if you think is a mystery to many

The people of Iran are not the poblem. I am am sure that most are just as peace loving as most of those of Israel. It is the extremist minorities in Iran and Israel and their governments that make both countries rogue states gulty of crimes against humanity. There is nothing to choose between them for disgusting behaviour and the atrocities they both have committed.

hooray ... exactly so, but until the populace has the courage - far far more required in iran - to forcibly tell the puppeteers to sling their hook, the carnage and appalling "behaviour" will continue

Hay-I agree to a point.

My worry is that you have a hanging president in Iran who is looking for nulclear capability. Would you trust him?
I do not nor does the west. He is more of a threat to world peace than any other state.

If he were dealt with I would feel better.

Hays,

I am agreeing with you too much.

But not all the Iranian and Israeli extremists are within their own country's borders. Some of those outside their "countries" ferment and propagate the problems.

Financial support for both sides comes from outside their borders.

ahmadinejad and his regime do far worse things than just hang opponents ..... we don't often hear of the severe tortures that are administered on the slightest pretext, or "disappearances" and the like

It shouldnt be forgotten that Israel was on the point of using Nuclear weapons when facing , what they thought was , impending defeat in the 1973 war .

It has since been argued it was a warning to the US , who then intervened and `saved` Israel .

However i get the impression there are Religious fanatics on the Israeli side who also have `God` on their side and all the other mumbo jumbo to justify a catastrophe .

Sheikh Raed Salah, the head of the Northern Branch of the Islamic Movement in Israel said, "Three weeks form now, another Freedom flotilla would sail to the Gaza Strip, and there would be another ship carrying the Turkish Prime Minister Tayyeb Recep Erdogan and a number of state presidents accompanying him to break the siege on Gaza".

fred - try promulgate

This is an indication of which way the wind is blowing in the West Bank. The municipal elections, which were due to be held in July, have been postponed due to deep differences within Fatah. Because Hamas have decided to boycott the elections, Fatah are worried that the result will lack credibility and be a serious blow to Fatah's remaining poor popularity. Fatah is also split, in that they ordered that no independent Fatah candidates could stand, but quite a few well known Fatah figures decided to stand.

Israel's attack on the flotilla has also strengthened Hamas. Hamas now has a very strong following amongst the average man in the street in Gaza and now in the West Bank. It looks as though Hamas are biding their time and will only stand for election when they think they will get a landslide.

All of this looks very bleak for the PA. Increasingly, it looks as though they are speaking less and less for the Palestinians. Hamas are developing their political skills at quite a fast pace.

cynic: Fred should also try foment.

or even be stuck in a vat to ferment .... interestingly, foment has two very different and contradictory meanings
