Klein: Ayers, Dohrn Top Activists in Gaza Flotilla Group
May 31, 2010, by Brenda J. Elliott
Jerusalem bureau chief for World Net Daily, reports from New York: The group behind the Gaza flotilla that engaged in deadly clashes with Israeli commandoes today counts among its top activists Weather Underground terrorist founders William Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn as well as Jodie Evans, the leader of the radical activist organization Code Pink.
Ayers and Dohrn were close associates for years with President Obama, while Evans was a fundraiser and financial bundler for Obama’s presidential campaign. Earlier today, Israeli navy commandos raided the six-ship flotilla, encountering heavy resistance and live fire from the activists. Nine activists were killed and dozens of others were reportedly injured, as were several of the Israeli commandoes.
The flotilla was organized by the Free Gaza Movement, a coalition of leftist human rights activists and pro-Palestinian groups engaged in attempts to break a blockade imposed by Israel on the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip. Ayers, Dohrn and Evans’ Code Pink have led several recent Free Gaza Movement initiatives, including attempted marches into the Gaza Strip. Dorhn was in the Middle East just last month on behalf of the movement.
And as we remember today, those who have fought for authentic freedom in past wars, let this remind us that we are at war now, throughout the world, and at great risk of losing the Soveriegnty and Responsible Liberty for which those who came before us fought. My generation, as so many died to allow us to also pass along this sacred gift, please carry on in this charge, instead of being prodigals.

This is absolutely what I thought had happened when I saw this on television. If the crisis isn't large enough here, why not stir up something internationally? Obama and the Palestians and the UN all seek to force Israel to give up more land and force a "peace" treaty on them and comments have already been made that they will do this whether Israel likes it or not. Such blantant mismanagement and disdain for our best ally-just like they are treating the United Kingdom now. I pray for Israel everyday just like I pray for our country under this radical attack on our faith, beliefs, economy, and everything we hold dear and have for centuries. There is nothing in these plans that is any good for you or me-it's all about power of the few and riches for the few and the rest of us will just have to do the best we can to survive. All these "brainy" people who came from the "love" children of the 70's are now in power and we need desperately to stick together, focus-don't allow crisis in one area to divert your attention-vote, write congress, tell others but whatever you do, do it peacefully-they want us to rebell and committ crimes so that they can make us look like radical right wing extremists and beleive me, the media will show it over and over until November...Follow Martin Luther King's way-know the truth, speak the truth, do not committ any acts of violence. We simply can't save our country that way-they are just waiting for us to do something stupid.We are just as smart as they are-God Bless America and Israel...
