"Zionism is nothing to do with being Jewish or Judaism"

The Freedom Flotilla, which was carrying humanitarian assistance to the coastal enclave, was in international waters in the Mediterranean Sea early on Monday, when it was attacked. Reports coming in, say there has been between ten and twenty people killed and some 30 others are wounded.

From around the world, the International Communities condemn the actions of the Israelis.

Reports are still coming through that the MV Rachel Corrie, a converted merchant ship, would reach Gaza waters by Wednesday; Israel said they will not let any ships reach Gaza and the Israelis are expecting an easy takeover of the ship, saying the Israeli forces would be "ready and waiting" for the Rachel Corrie.

Israel announced a decision to hold 480 activists captured on Monday, in jail saying the international campaigners would face prosecution.

The UN Security Council condemned the bloodshed in the Monday's attack on the ships and called for the immediate release of the civilians and ships in Israeli custody.
