Read this post if you want to understand the growing problem the West--specifically the U.S.and Israel--have with Turkey.
Turkey is deliberately helping the Iranians to undermine U.S. policy in the Middle East, and by sending a flotilla to Gaza, in defiance of Israel's blockade, is tantamount to an act of war, it seems to me. There was nothing humanitarian about the trip, because as William Jacobson notes, humanitarian aid can come over land. That this group tried to get through the blockade speaks to more sinister aims to bring weapons into Gaza.
Our president's throwing our allies under the bus, including Israel. More here, including the fact that the group responsible for the flotilla supports--surprise!--radical Islam.

Moral Equivalence
Don't bother pointing out the 6,000 rockets fired from Gaza at Israel. The fact that Israelis are more accurate makes themevil. Don't point out the anti-Israeli rants coming from our own shores, calling for the annihilation of Israel. That's ok. But attacking back is not.
Equivalence is the title of Dan Collins's post at Protein Wisdom. Read it.
