Irish aid ship delays voyage to Gaza

[azurnoir]

An Irish-owned aid ship headed for Gaza is delaying its voyage for a while to get equipped with video capabilities and satellite transmission to record what is happening at any given moment on the vessel, a Free Gaza Movement activist told CNN.

The MV Rachel Corrie, named for an American activist killed in Gaza several years ago, was expected to arrive late Friday or early Saturday off the coast of Gaza. Israel was offering to unload it in its Ashdod port, screen the material and then deliver it to Gaza, but fears of another high-seas confrontation were in the offing.

Adam Shapiro, Free Gaza board member, said the additions to the ship are being made for safety purposes.

Shapiro said Israel has made it clear it would intercept the ship and he hopes recording technology on the ship will make a difference in the behavior of any soldiers who board the vessel.

"Israel will be sensitive to the fact that we'll be recording what's happening and streaming it live," said Shapiro, who didn't identify where the Rachel Corrie is docking. He said it will head toward Gaza within the week.

1. It might be helpful in the wake of this PR debacle in which

every member of the Security Council but us called for the end of the siege and that sparked worldwide protests against the IDF.

2. Heads up to the IDF

If you disable the camera's or interrupt the feed. The world will believe ANY outrageous claim they make. The more outrageous the claim the more believable it will be. If they say the IDF held a satanic mass before their Gay Orgy. The world will say, Oh so that's what Israel wanted to hide when they disabled the camera's. Satanic perverts!
