I've yet to see Israel release footage that covers the full events - that they are cutting the context raises very reasonable doubt. They have also made sure they had the first couple of days media time to themselves in being able to offer first hand accounts.
It seems to me though that the best case is that Israel was responsible for taking the guns onto the ship (despite early claims from official Israeli sources that the passengers were armed and running weapons in - which doesn't do much for confidence in their version of events).

Basically, I'm not going to believe either side on this without seeing a lot more proof... but Israel timed this as they do with other things they are expecting bad publicity from and Israel chose to send armed commandos one by one onto a ship full of people who they know expect the worst of Israelis soldiers and are likely to be resistant. Israel has changed the story it has been putting out several times as well. All of which makes me think it is reasonable to assume there is a lot more than just their version.



I'm not actually sure what you are trying to say. My view is that what you said was worthless because you ignored the vital context that started the mess and I make and made no assumptions regarding your views on it being murdr or not - I stated that it was on the basis that armed Israeli soliders illegally boarded a ship where they knew there would be resistance then shot people for resisting their illegal actions.



Doesn't take the responsibilty of the person breaking in.



I agree with that sentiment, I just don't see it as relevant to this.
The idiots in Gaza who launched rockets into Israel in response? Them it is relevant to... though there are some pretty serious questions about the describing the Israeli army as a "legitimate government military" - it uses illegal weapons and carries out illegal attacks.
