Yeah, my opinion, and the opinion of a lot of people I know, is that Israel has gone overboard in a lot of ways- that in their quest to be secure, they've turned into a state that's not what a lot of Jews want it to be- i.e., they've gone too militaristic instead of being a haven.

I was getting really confused, because honestly most of the news I see sucks as far as actual information, but it sounds like their excuse is that one boat wasn't following procedures, and some people on board had ties with Hamas, and thus they sent in the soldiers.

Now, if there was information there was a huge stash of weaponry, I could see it being a good excuse. But I don't agree with the blockade in the first place. I dunno. It's very disappointing, to say the least.
