I read somewhere that the Israeli's had paintball guns and a side-arm, and were only allowed to use the side-arm if something bad started to happen, which obviously did. Anyone else hear anything about that? In the video Baraka put up you can clearly see a soldier holding a paintball gun, as other soldiers around him are being attacked. It's around the 1:02 minute mark in the video.
Boarding the ships in international waters isn't the best idea, they should have waited until they were legally allowed to board them. Why did the people on the ship attack the soldiers? Their intent was to kill, seeing as how they threw them overboard and attacked the soldiers with pipes. I find it hard to believe that specially trained soldiers like this would start killing people without being provoked by a life threatening force.
