Flotilla hilarity

Some leftists are silly, yes, but I'm not sure what this proves.

The hardcore islamophile left is no more mainstream than the far-right.

I know there is often a sense that even the average politicians are islamophiles. But that is only because of the rhetoric they use when it comes to immigration and multiculturalism. At the end of the day they still support Israel for all its flaws, and they are starting to turn against the "multicult" with comments by Merkel and Cameron etc.

Proves that these ships have nothing to do with aid, they don't even have enough supplies for themselves.

Human biengs require more than one form of supplies. It is perfectly conceivable that they ran out of some key supply (such as potable water) and can have a hold full of useful material but it next to useless if you're going to die of dehydration.

Oh yeah that's possible, but these clowns claimed to be delivering food, and they ran out of it.

Yeah that is also perfectly possible but they claimed to be bringing food, no that is not in the link

they did run out of water tho.

Looking for non-partisan coverage of this, finding nothing but mouthpieces for the two sides. According to the Israel sympathists, it's much as Frags says. According to the Palestinian sympathists, it's another thing entirely. Not seeing any write-ups in any mainstream news source. Post linkies if you find 'em.
