President Obama faces his first real challenge today after Israel attacked a humanitarian relief convoy in International waters, including 2 ships registered and flying the US flag, and killed more than a dozen civilians on a ship flying the Turkish flag. Turkey is a NATO member, and an attack on a ship of a NATO member country in the Mediterranean Sea is explicitly a trigger for a unified NATO response.
An early press release of the Turkish Foreign Ministry is reposted here: Press Release from Turkey's Ministry of Foreign Affairs re: Flotilla Massacre
Please consider taking action to encourage Obama to end the siege and naval blockade of Gaza, to protect the lives of passengers and the badly needed humanitarian cargo of U.S. and NATO flagged ships in the flotilla. Obama must severely sanction Israel for this aggressive violation of International Law, which is essentially an act of war against the community of nations.
