Messianic Bible People Sent A Message About The “Free Gaza Movement” Flotilla
Shalom Teresa,
There are many people in the Jewish Scriptures who had zeal but used it wrongly.
Do you remember the story of Rabbi Sha’ul, also known as the Apostle Paul?
Before Paul had the Damascus Road experience in which God spoke to him saying:
“Paul why are persecuting Me,” Paul the religious Jew (Pharisee) was rounding
up the Jewish Believers in Yeshua (Jesus) and persecuting them.
Paul’s zeal was being used against God’s (Y-H-V-H’s/HaShem‘s) will.
We see this same misdirected zeal in Hamas terrorists and suicide bombers who murder
and maim innocent Jewish men, women and children for the sake of their ‘holy cause.’
What is very sad is how people around the world are empathizing with them, calling for
the destruction of the State of Israel, which was reborn in 1948 in fulfillment of Biblical Prophecy.
This week Pro-Palestinian activists aboard “another” Flotilla ship bound for Gaza, prove
the point that people can be totally and entirely deceived.

Yeshua tells us that in the last days, many people will be deceived, even the very elect!
Grey-haired activists, including a couple of dozen Canadians and the novelist Alice Walker,
have boldly stated their willingness to die for their cause of bringing humanitarian aid to the
“impoverished people of Gaza, who are ‘cruelly oppressed by the Israeli military regime,’
state these activists.
Kevin Neish, an elderly B.C. activist said, “We’re expecting to be tasered.” And founder of the
Free Gaza Movement, Mary Hughes Thompson, told the CBC Television, “If anything should
happen to me – if I should die – I can’t think of a better cause.”
Unfortunately, their zeal is misguided and very dangerous at its extreme. If any of these
well-meaning individuals were to be martyred, it would only be to enable terrorism, not to stop it.
We must remember that Israel’s blockade exists only to stop rampant weapons-smuggling into Gaza.
And If these international activists truly cared about people in desperate need of humanitarian help,
they’d be sailing to North Korea or Sudan where people are being starved.
The people of Gaza themselves, admit that there are no shortages and
that they do not need the aid.
According to Israel Today News, July 2, 2011, local people of Gaza are now coming
forward to affirm what Israel has maintained all along – that the international aid
flotillas attempting to break through Israeli naval blockades are totally unnecessary.
In conversations with Gaza businessmen, Israel’s Ynet news service revealed that
even the Palestinians living in Gaza admit to having plenty of supplies thanks to
Gaza-Israel border crossing transfers.
Gaza may not be the most prosperous region of the world, but it is most definitely
not the most impoverished either. Gaza is a place where flat-screen TVs, new cars,
extravagant weddings, and Israeli mineral water abound.
Medical shortages are caused more by the Palestinian authority’s failure to pay
their suppliers on time, than on a lack of supply.
In addition, much of the humanitarian aid that the Flotilla ship brings never reaches
the people on the street, but is rather seized by Hamas and resold at high prices.
In fact, organizers of the first ship to set off for Gaza last Friday, the Audacity of Hope,
carrying several dozen Americans supportive of the “Palestinian Cause,” admitted last
month that their vessel didn’t even contain any humanitarian aid whatsoever! Their
only goal was to confront the Israeli blockade.
They were, perhaps, hoping for a repeat of what happened last year when Israeli military
forces were ambushed on the Mavi Marmara ship and while protecting themselves,
unfortunately killed nine people.

Fortunately, this week, Israel did have to confront the ‘misguided’ Flotilla, as the Greek
Coast Guard stopped the ship shortly after it left the Greek port.
The Greek coast guard also intercepted The Canadians’ boat, the Tahrir
(Arabic for “liberation”) and took it back to the marina.
This verse from King David who spent his life defending Israel, is so appropriate:
“May all who hate Zion Be put to shame, and turned backward” (Psalm 129:5)
The other deception that makes this international group of so-called human rights
activists so misguided, is the fact that these people’s support is Hamas.
Hamas is a terrorist organization that is dedicated to the destruction of Israel, and has only
one objective, to control Gaza. Most of the “Palestinians” living in Gaza are not happy
with their Hamas leadership, and would prefer to live under a free democratic Israeli society.
Hamas endorses The Protocols of the Elders of Zion, a notorious anti-Semitic document
which Adolf Hitler used to help spread his hatred of the Jewish people, with this
propaganda of Zionistic plans for world domination.
Hamas’ leader, Khaled Meshaal, is based in Syria where you are seeing daily on TV and in
the newspapers that the regime of Bashar al-Assad is murdering hundreds of his own people.
These ‘peace activists’ aboard the Flotilla vessels seem to ignore the crucial fact that Gaza is
controlled by a terrorist organization.
On July 11, 2011, Israeli President Shimon Peres met with the Greek President Karlos Papoulias
to thank him for the important role that Greece played in blocking the Gaza-bound flotilla.
In response to seeing the banners on the Flotilla boats saying, ‘Free Gaza,’ Peres stated: “Gaza
does not want peace, and that if Gaza would be free of terror, Gaza would be free.”
