4 09 2011From Rense.com –
[snip] . . . “The eastern Mediterranean will no longer be a place where Israeli naval forces can freely exercise their bullying practices against civilian vessels,” a Turkish official was quoted as saying.
As part of the plan, the Turkish navy will increase its patrols in the eastern Mediterranean and pursue “a more aggressive strategy”.

Breaking: Turkey Stands Up to Israel
2 09 2011Turkey downgrades ties with Israel
Ankara expels Israeli diplomats and suspends military co-operation ahead of over 2010 flotilla raid.
Turkey has downgraded diplomatic ties with Israel and suspended military co-operation between the countries in anticipation of the release of a United Nations report into Israel’s raid of a Gaza-bound ship…
. . . All military agreements “have been suspended as of now”, [Turkish foreign minister] Davutoglu said, and Turkey will now see any measures necessary for the pertaining of freedom in the eastern Mediterranean Sea, the foreign minister said.
Turkey does not recognise Israel’s blockade on Gaza as legal and will take this matter to the International Court of Justice, he concluded. . . (more)

BBC:
Officials in Ankara said it was also suspending all remaining military agreements with Israel.
Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu said some of the report’s findings, leaked to the New York Times, were unacceptable.
Turkey wants Israel to apologise for the raid but it has refused to do so.
Nine Turkish pro-Palestinian activists were killed when Israeli forces stormed the flotilla in May 2010. . .

The Flotilla embodies the Arab Spring spirit
4 07 2011Earlier this year we watched with amazement as hundreds of thousands of Arabs charged into the streets of their cities demanding reform. The uprisings led to the departure of several leaders who had ruled for decades and also tested (and continue to test) several others.
But what led to this outpouring is much the same as the motivation behind the flotilla initiative which seeks to challenge the Israeli blockade of the Gaza Strip.
When fundamentally unjust situations are left unaddressed by states, the people must step in. That is precisely what happened in Tahrir square when hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of Egyptians lost all faith in the government’s ability to reform. . . .

Gaza Freedom Flotilla II Set to Sail
18 04 2011Vittorio Arrigoni’s Mother To Join Freedom Flotilla II
Egidia Beretta, the mother of Vittorio Arrigoni, the Italian activist and journalist killed in Gaza on Friday, said that she will be sailing to Gaza on May with the Free Gaza flotilla.
Beretta on Saturday told Italian news sources that “I want to see the Gaza that my son loved and sacrificed for, I want to meet the good people living there that my son Vik always talked about”. She added that Vittorio’s work will go on though his friends.
Vittorio’s mother added that her son received death threats from a right wing American group on their website two years ago because of his photos published online and the pro Palestinian tattoo he has on his shoulder.
Vittorio first came to Gaza with the Free Gaza flotilla in 2008 and used to live in a single bedroom house near Gaza City coastline until he was kidnapped and murdered by armed men. . .
