Turning Kassam rocket shrapnel into fundraiser for Israeli bombshelters
0 comments Posted by queen at 6:59 PMHow does one fight back against rockets that rain from the sky? Maybe a little Alinsky-style ridicule. Maybe publicizing heart-wrenching stories of victims. One Israeli artist, Yaron Bob, has used his metal-working skill to turn rockets into roses. The funds support construction of Israeli bomb shelters in endangered neighborhoods. The gifts range from $25 keychains to larger bouquets costing thousands.

Al Reuters Crops Flotilla Photos To Remove Gazan Bloody Knives
0 comments Posted by queen at 12:30 PMNot just once. Twice. This is a pattern. And not the first time Reuters has reported news on the middle east in bad faith. Shame on Reuters. They hide the truth to push a political agenda.

Protesters on board the Gaza flotilla attempting to run the Israeli blockade of Hamas in Gaza used guns, knives, clubs and metal pipes to attack IDF naval forces who boarded the vessels of the flotilla around 2:00 EST this morning.
"It was a well-planned lynch," one IDF officer said, despite claims from the promoters of the Gaza flotilla that they were unarmed civilians on a humanitarian mission.
The confrontation took place after the flotilla ignored a series of warnings that began around 11:00 p.m., requesting them to redirect to the Ashdod port where they could unload their cargo for land transport to Gaza .
When naval forces boarded the ships of the Gaza flotilla, they were met with gunfire, knives, metal pipes and clubs. Two passengers from the flotilla fired weapons they had grabbed from soldiers.
"As a result of this life-threatening and violent activity, naval forces employed riot dispersal means, including live fire," the IDF Spokesperson's Office said in a press release.
IAF helicopters evacuated some of the injured from the Gaza flotilla to Israeli hospitals.
