On the day before the IDF boarded the ship, the “peace activists” on board the Marmara chanted the jihadi slogan to kill all Jews.
“[Remember] Khaibar, Khaibar, oh Jews! The army of Muhammad will return!”
Khaibar is the name of the last Jewish village defeated by Muhammad’s army in 628. Many Jews were killed in that battle, which marked the end of Jewish presence in Arabia. There are Muslims who see that as a precursor to future wars against Jews. At gatherings and rallies of extremists, this chant is often heard as a threat to Jews to expect to be defeated and killed again by Muslims.
Al-Jazeera also interviewed a woman who said that the flotilla participants’ goal was “one of two happy endings: either Martyrdom or reaching Gaza.”
These were not “peace activists.” These were not even civilians. These were terrorists with a purpose. And they achieved it. Israel is suffering its worst public relations disaster since the supposed bombing of a family on a Gaza beach—which turned out to be a Hamas-caused explosion, but the world never, ever updated its information on that.
The delegitimization of Israel continues at breakneck speed.
And its unfortunate that many of the anti Israel propagandists in media are Jewish of the left wing kind.
