Pushing UN - to Stall Gaza Flotilla Debate
Friday, Sept. 29 7:13 AM (EST) Israel puts pressure on United Nations to delay debate on Gaza Flotilla Attack against humanitarian workers back in May, resulting in the deaths of 1 American and 8 Turkish citizens. Demanding delay until Israel finishes up its internal inquiry of the unprecedented attack on civilians in international waters.

UN Report Claims Israeli Military Broke International Law in Raid on Aid Ship Killing 9 Passengers Bound for Gaza.

Israel wants UN to hold back report on Gaza Flotilla Attack until they can come up with results from their own investigation into the raid that left many citizens from European and America injured, wounded and dead.

The UN Human Rights Commission released a report on Wednesday which said that Israeli forces violated international law when they raided a Gaza-bound aid flotilla, killing nine and wounding many others, four months ago.

Immediately after the military action against the civilian boats, Israel came up with their own 'inquiry' on the raid, headed up by Jacob Turkel, a former Supreme Court Justice.

Foreign Ministry of Israel shot back at the report late Wednesday, even though they admit not studying it, saying the UN Human Rights Commission has an extreme biased and politicaized approach to the investigation. They say they will 'study' the report (later).

The Turkel Commission hoped to ease or put down the international fury at Israel's attack on civilian boats in international waters. The commission additionally is coming up with material for a separate investigation at the UN.

When interviewed on Army Radio a few days ago, former Judge Turkel was questioned concerning current status and when it would be finished.
His reply was, "Certainly we have now gathered most of testimony" and "If more witnesses testify, they will be less important and not a large number left."

Aharon Yaar, envoy to UN in Geneva, said today the results of the UN Human Rights Commission report has been already determined.

"Yes, certainly. We have by now gathered most of the testimony," Turkel said. "If there will be more witnesses testifying, they will be witnesses of lesser importance, and not a large number of them remain."

Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu attacked the UN report two days ago claiming it was "biased, distorted.." and those conducting the investigation are "obessed with targeting Israel".

salam alaykum shaikh yusuf, this is a message sent to me by a Christian Friend on Facebook __I ran across the website whtt.org, and because they were picketing outside the church my exhusband/wife beater went to I was instantly interested. I phoned the guy who made the webside and he agreed that the problem is 1) they take things literally, only instead of literal christians he called them zionists which I hadn't though of, and 2) he had done the research on the background of the bible translation manipulation which was now used by the fundamentalist sminaries and churches. http://whtt.org/show will get you to his powerpoint on that. That is how I became friends with Rich Siegal, on fb because he too had found that website and taked to the guy, Charles Carlson. Anyway, My Dad, who passed away in 1997, was a Lutheran Minister, and had been a medic in WWII at the normandie invasion, and was very level headed, was a man of peace, not extremes, and gave me a good solid religious background based on love and grace. (That is why I can only surmise my exploration of the the extremists in religion was a karmic thing. I beleive in reincarnation now and think we choose dramas, traumas, learnings, to fulfill a desire to know more than we could have in a past life. So I am learning in all of this fb fun as well. Thanks for asking, dear heart! The zionist chrsitians are scared out of their minds of being left behind, as if a God of Love could do that to them. Fear mongering, and old testament rhetoric (that has nothing to do with Jesus) has them trapped. It is a form of hypnosis, and they need to WAKE UP (which is what we say at the end of a hypno session). I studied it last year and have hypnotherapy clients now. Very interesting, what we are suggestible to, from this life and the past._ _http://whtt.or g/show/__Salam alaykum - Peace -_Hailana Ben Ali
