Iran To Provoke Israel and Desires For Israel To Kick Their Ass

[BigBadBrian]

Iran’s Red Crescent Society is preparing to send two aid boats to Gaza this week to challenge the Israeli embargo. The announcement came a day after a senior Iranian official offered Revolutionary Guardsas escorts for vessels challenging the blockade — a move that would be seen in Israel as a provocation. Nine people were killed in an Israeli commando raid on a Turkish aid flotilla last week.

“One ship will carry donations made by the people and the other will carry relief workers. The ships will be sent to Gaza by end of this week,” said Abdolrauf Adibzadeh, the head of the Red Crescent in Iran, adding that a third boat could follow at a later date.

The first two vessels will head to Gaza in co-ordination with the Turkish Government, one of them carrying “70 aid workers such as nurses and medics and the other will have foodstuffs and medicines”, Mr Adibzadeh said. He called for volunteers to join the convoy. The third boat would have an operating theatre on board.

Israel, which has kept a tight control on any goods or people entering Gaza since the Islamist Hamas movement took power in 2007, has vowed not to allow aid boats through. Its interception of the six-vessel flotilla last week ended in a bloodbath, international condemnation and calls for an independent inquiry.

In response to a no-confidence motion tabled by opposition parties the Israeli Defence Minister, Ehud Barak, said that his Government would investigate the incident and consider alternative ways to enforce the blockade.

The raid has ruptured Israel’s strategic alliance with Turkey, its sole friend in the Muslim world. Turkey has said that ties will not return to normal until an international inquiry is held, a move that Israel is resisting.

The Turkish Prime Minister, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, yesterday described the raid as a violation of international law. “If there is hatred, it is Israel’s hatred. If there is terror, it is Israel’s state terrorism,” he said after meeting President al-Assad of Syria.

Israel is worried that Turkey, with whom it has enjoyed close military ties in the past, is moving away from the West and closer to the Muslim world. A joint Turkish-Iranian attempt to break the blockade would add to such fears.

The last time that the Iranian Red Crescent sent an aid boat with food and medicine to Gaza it was intercepted by the Israeli navy without casualties in December 2008. Tensions have soared since the killings on the Mavi Marmara ferry last Monday and Israel has accused an Islamic Turkish charity of sneaking mercenaries on to the vessel.

Israeli forces killed four more people off the coast of Gaza yesterday, accusing them of being Palestinian frogmen trying to break out of the heavily guarded coastal enclave to attack Israel.

Abu al-Walid, a survivor of the attack, said that seven unarmed members of al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigades, a militant offshoot of Fatah, had been doing “swimming training”. when Israeli helicopters and naval forces opened fire.Israel’s military said that it had attacked “a squad of terrorists wearing diving suits on their way to execute a terror attack”.

History of the emblems

[edit]The Red Cross

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/1a/Flag_of_the_Red_Cross.svg/100px-Flag_of_the_Red_Cross.svg.png


The flag of Switzerland, from which the original Red Cross is said to have been derived

The Red Cross emblem was officially approved in Geneva in 1863.[5]

The Red Cross flag is not to be confused with the St George's Cross which is the flag of England, Barcelona, Freiburg, and several other places. In order to avoid this confusion the protected symbol is sometimes referred to as the "Greek Red Cross"; that term is also used in United States law to describe the Red Cross. The red cross of the St George cross extends to the edge of the flag, whereas the red cross on the Red Cross flag does not.

The Red Cross flag is often confused with the Flag of Switzerland which is the opposite of it. In 1906, to put an end to the argument of Turkey that the flag took its roots from Christianity, it was decided to promote officially the idea that the Red Cross flag had been formed by reversing the federal colours of Switzerland, although no clear evidence of this origin had ever been found[6].

[edit]The Red Crescent

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/0f/Flag_of_the_Red_Crescent.svg/100px-Flag_of_the_Red_Crescent.svg.png

The Red Crescent emblem was first used by ICRC volunteers during the armed conflict between the Ottoman Empire and Russia (1877–1878). The symbol was officially adopted in 1929, and so far 33 Islamic states have recognized it.

[edit]The Red Crystal

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/bb/Flag_of_the_Red_Crystal.svg/100px-Flag_of_the_Red_Crystal.svg.png

On December 8, 2005, partly in response to growing pressure to accommodate Magen David Adom as a full member of the Red Cross & Red Crescent movement,[citation needed] a new emblem (officially the Third Protocol Emblem, but more commonly known as the Red Crystal) was adopted by an amendment of the Geneva Conventions known as Protocol III.

[edit]Recognized emblems in disuse

[edit]The Red Lion and Sun

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/59/Red_Lion_with_Sun.svg/100px-Red_Lion_with_Sun.svg.png

The Red Lion and Sun Society of Iran was established in 1922 and admitted to the Red Cross & Red Crescent movement in 1923.[7] However, some report the symbol was introduced at Geneva in 1864[citation needed][8] as a counter example to the crescent and cross used by two of Iran's rivals, the Ottoman and the Russian empires. Though that claim is inconsistent with the Red Crescent's history, that history also suggests that the Red Lion and Sun, like the Red Crescent, may have been conceived during the 1877-1878 war between Russia and Turkey.
In 1980, because of the association of the emblem with the Shah, the newly proclaimed Islamic Republic of Iran replaced the Red Lion and Sun with the Red Crescent, consistent with most other Muslim nations. Though the Red Lion and Sun has now fallen into disuse, Iran has in the past reserved the right to take it up again at any time; the Geneva Conventions continue to recognize it as an official emblem, and that status was confirmed by Protocol III in 2005 even as it added the Red Crystal.[citation needed]

Well, supergenius, it's actually the Israelis that are causing most of this. And "kick their asses?" Oh, okay. You mean like in Lebanon where Hezbollah gave the IDF a bloody nose by simply not fighting the way Israel wanted them too?

Yeah, a bloody nose with rockets, which is what these perfectly legal and justified blockade stops are intended to prevent getting through.

Except it's against international law. In Somalia, they call them pirates...

Not legal and completely unjustified actually.

[BigBadBrian]

Not legal and completely unjustified actually.

They are not allowed to blockade their own waters to prevent weapons from coming in? You're deluded.

It's not like anyone is going to stop them anyway.

[Seshmeister]

It's not their waters.

The Gaza Strip is not part of Israel legally or morally.

Obama an anti-semite? He has plenty of Jews in his cabinet. Emanuel being the chief of staff, and Geitner being the secretary of the treasury. There are others. Certain Jews want to start a war with Iran and Israel has played the poor victim game for so long and the western world traditionally backed them up over the years they just feel like they can do anything they want. Especially, when they feel they have the big US military machine on their side and lots of nukes themselves. My major concern is a US/Israeli attack on Iran. The world is split between Europe/North America/Israel and Russia/China. Iran is where a possible showdown could happen and it could snowball into world war III. Israel is breaking international law at will, it's turning Gaza into a ghetto, and it's built huge barrier walls. If I didn't know better the Nazis and Communists did such things. Israel is out of control and if it remains on it's current course, it's days are numbered. Turkey has a million man army with modern NATO equipment. Honestly, keep pissing the world off Israel and it's over for you.

[Nitro Express]

I don't have anything against decent Jewish people but Israel is ran by a bunch of thugs. It's a dangerous rogue government that will attack anybody it pleases. Over the years, many peaceful US Citizens have been killed by the state of Israel and the US Government has done nothing.

[BigBadBrian]

It's not their waters.

The Gaza Strip is not part of Israel legally or morally.

According to the UN and the San Remo Manual of International Law, a country may enact a blockade if it is at war. Hamas has launched around 10,000 rockets into Israel. If that's not war, I don't know what is.

Besides, Gaza is still a part of Israel, so I guess technically it's a civil war.

I've been to Israel several times. They don't fuck around with their security with ANYONE. Americans are almost always well treated in Israel, though.
