		<description><![CDATA[Ah, Greg, great minds ... ;) I wrote the Tattlesnake piece before I read your article, but I had  the same thought when I heard the official Israeli govt. excuse for firing on the aid workers: it was one steaming load of BS to think that the untrained people aboard that ship could disarm, beat and even stab trained Israeli commandos.

I noted with some sour amusement that the AP was reporting the aid workers as &#039;Palestinian supporters&#039; or &#039;Palestinian activists&#039; -- as if you could not possibly want to altruistically aid people in need unless you also agreed with their political cause entirely.

But I also noted with interest that the AP put a disqualifier on the official Israeli govt. photos of the aid workers allegdely beating up the commandos -- even they wanted to distance themselves from these stinkers.

What a shame that the American mass news media doesn&#039;t have as much freedom to criticize Netanyahu&#039;s ultra-right govt. as does the Israeli daily newspaper Haaretz.]]></description>
