Andy9o8 2 #26 May 31, 2010 QuoteMeanwhile, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu canceled his imminent trip to the United States, in wake of the murders of at least 10 people after Israel Navy troops boarded a flotilla of ships heading to the Gaza Strip carrying aid. I clicked on your link to the article by Barak Ravid and didn't find the word "murders" in that sentence; rather, it said "deaths". So then I googled it. Other newspapers which picked up the article also have the word "deaths" in that sentence; none of them quote the article as using the word "murders". In fact, when I googled the exact phrase, "in wake of the murders of at least 10 people after Israel Navy troops boarded a flotilla of ships", I got zero hits. Please explain.

Andy9o8 2 #36 May 31, 2010 So you deliberately altered the wording in something you held out as a quote in a source. If you were a journalist and got caught doing that, you'd be fired. If you were a college student, you'd be expelled. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Channman 2 #39 May 31, 2010 > They were illegally boarded by armed men in the middle of the night. I don't know about you but violence seems like a pretty reasonable response. Illegally boarded??? Israeli made it very clear that the area they were sailing into was under Naval Blockade and they should allow boarding so the ship could be searched for weapons. It is also a known fact all other vessels were boarded and searched without confrontation. Israeli troops were well within their rights to defend themselves and if required use deadly force to secure their safety. These activist were looking for a fight and appears they got one.

sundevil777 102 #41 May 31, 2010 After a while, even the guardian and other willing palestinian propagandists will start to report the entire story. They'll choose to not describe it as a correction to their earlier reports. I think you'll ignore it completely.People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired.

If you were a Tour de France cyclist, you'd be disgraced. If you were a UK physician caught phonying data to connect inoculations to autism, you'd lose your license.
