The ship that took the Free Gaza nitwits to a clash with the Israeli navy sank yesterday. Say buh-bye, boat!
Free Gaza group spokesman Ramzi Kysia said the 66-foot yacht SS Dignity sank while being moved from a marina to the port of Larnaca because of bad weather. He said no foul play was suspected but that police are investigating the incident.
The Dignity was seriously damaged in December in a collision with an Israeli navy ship. The activists said the navy rammed the Dignity, while Israel said the boat tried to outmaneuver an Israeli vessel and crashed into it.
Funny, I don’t recall reading about any of these same people trying to bring supplies to Sudan after the UN aid groups were thrown out. You’d think that they don’t care about the Sudanese starving—apparently, they only care about the Palestinians who, uh, aren’t starving.
But then again, if they tried to bring a load of supplies into Sudan (not by ship, of course), they’d probably meet the same fate as the UN aid groups: A welcome by the Sudanese Arab militias. Sure, they’d make headlines after they were dead, but then, they wouldn’t really go into a war zone where there was a chance of actually getting hurt, would they?
Apparently not.
