24 MINUTES AGO
They've turned the corner and are on their way to Gaza. 21 more miles and they will be there. Still 'escorted' by two Israeli gun boats.

I have been watching their journey since it began, and hoping for their safety and that their mission is accomplished Cinthia sent a letter to Obama telling him they were going. They have pretty much covered all angles for their safety and they are traveling international waters. I am keeping my fingers crossed.

AGAIN? :shk:

McKinney has pulled this crap before. Her boat never made it there.
(these type of 'aid' boats are notorious for running illegal arms into Gaza.)
She spent the next few days basking in the press and whining.
The wing nut is desperate to try to stay in the news and to be relevant.

31 MINUTES AGO Spoke to people on board. Israeli boats in front, threatening to arrest passengers. Will know more in 15 minutes.

Even if Cynthia was bringing guns to Gaza (which is ridiculous) it would only level the playing field!

What are you on?

38 MINUTES AGO Please IMMEDIATELY contact all embassies & consulates and demand people on the Spirit not be attacked or harmed in any way.

Just another weak publicity stunt from McKinney. The boat is probably filled with Twinkies and Suzie Q's.

What makes them think that they will be allowed in THIS time?? Dogs learn faster than these maroons.

She's irrelevant and not happy about it.
And you are right, animals in a zoo learn faster than her.

Hell no! If the morons are stupid enough to try to run an Israeli blockade (which is in place for a good reason) - stupid enough to try to run it not just once but twice, then they deserve whatever happens to them.

GIVE THEM THE DARWIN AWARD!

How can Israel blockade international waters?

Isreal is a soverign nation and has a right to defend itself. When boatload after boatload of illegal arms shipments and illegal ammunitions are being ferried into the Gaza, and the illegal arms and ammunition are going to be used in terrorist attacks against the civilians of Isreal, the Isrealis damn sure have a right to stop the murder of their civilians and they damn sure have a right to stop the attacks on their country.

If they were to turn a blind eye would be irresponsible and ignorant.

The so called 'palestinians' made their own bed and now they have to sleep in it. Their own behavior has caused these actions. Hell .. even Egypt has closed it's borders to them since they behave so badly.

This lady just likes to hear her own voice lol. Why on Earth would you try to run past a blockade? Is she really that stupid.

Reverse the situation, and imagine McKinney bringing medical supplies and food aid to emaciated and disease ridden Jews in Nazi concentration camps. Which is exactly the situation in Gaza. How would you feel then? Won't she then be considered a saint or a heroine in the eyes of Jews?

As usual, the same vile examples of human beings gathering to spew their hatred whenever people are brave and humane enough to confront the Israeli storm troopers.

For god sake, the tragedy of the Holocaust, which you lot would gladly remind the world all the time, seems to be completely lost on all of you. Or is it strictly reserved for Jews only and excludes the rest of the world.

Do carry on with your depraved rantings as it certainly isn't doing the Jewish cause any favors. It only exposes another ugly side every time you regurgitate offensive remarks from your orifices against people like McKinney.

Go McKinney!!! The world needs more people like you.

McKinney is one of the few patriots left in this country. If we had a few more like her things might be different.

My God! Do you ever have anything positive to say about people? Other than the ones that apply only to the neocon agenda? Seriously. Why do you hate McKinney so much? Because she tried to expose your buddy Bush and his cronies about the mess on 911?

She is actually someone who stands for the consitution (yes, that Goddamned piece of paper your buddy so lovingly described). But, because she has gone against the mighty Republican and Democrat parties she is a nut job? Hmmmmm, she is trying to help these people. Period. She is not bringing in illegal arms. She is a humanitarian on a mission to help HUMANS.

But that is always lost on people like you.

You are asking two of the most callous posters on this site what they would 'FEEL' if the tables were turned? You see, that's the problem right there. If there are people out there who have challenged the 'party' that these two support then that means those people are idiots and can't learn things as quickly as 'animals in the zoo'.

So asking them how they would feel is kind of a stupid question because it is obvious from their posts on many humanitarian subjects that they DO NOT FEEL.

Just ask Hamas to release all of the food and supplies that they are hoarding for themselves. There is your problem. Hamas likes to receive donations they just don't like to hand them out to those who need it. They keep people under the proverbial thumb.

Even if the wingnut McKinney were to make it through a blockade, Hamas would seize the Twinkies.

The effort makes everyone look good on paper and in the media. However, reality bites the big one.

Anything to stay in the spotlight.
