The narrative in the mainstream media is that the Freedom Flotilla passengers were innocent peace activists who were ruthlessly attacked by bloodthirsty Israeli Defense Forces. They did nothing wrong, Israel just decided to use violence against them out of the blue.

Sadly for the MSM there are now dozens of videos on the Internet that prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that the terrorists of the IHH disguised as peace activists attacked the IDF first, who then fought back in self-defense. One of these videos is the one below. It shows, its description at YouTube explains, how “IDF commandos, during the operation to redirect the Gaza flotilla, boarded the Mavi Marmara in the early hours of May 31st, 2010. When they attempted to board, activists, in a prepared attack, lynched the soldiers and stole two pistols.

“In this footage you can hear the radio exchange between soldiers on their way to the bridge and the IDF ship. The soldiers report encountering live fire and serious violence.”
