Just to add a little fuel to the fire, why not declare the Turkish aid organizers a terrorist group? Does this mean the IHH will now be on the US terror list as well? Or is this list exclusively for the Israeli's to follow?

This group is not scheduled to sail until next month it says, so there will be plenty of time for both sides to stoke the furnace before the next flotilla arrives, which Israel has stated they will not be permitted to pass. Then with the Iranians already on the way, this point may be moot.

As they should.
Ant other prudent sovereign would do the same.

At the rate theyre going wont be long before the entire world is on their watchlist..

A terrorist nation creating a terror watch list ..... should I laugh or cry?

Keeping an eye on someone who attempted to break a security perimeter seems like an entirely prudent move.

Am I missing something here?

If the US has followed suit I can't find it. The State Dept has not updated their online list since January 19, 2010 Foreign Terrorist Organizations
