CE: Flotilla For What?

May 31 of last year, there was an outrage when Israelis boarded ships from Turkey, providing aid to Gaza. Israel wanted to check the ships in order to prevent weapons from reaching Gaza. But, it turned fatal with 9 dead. International outcry resulted, raising a PR hell for Israel (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/10203726). Now, today, Israelis boarded a German ship, Victoria, and uncovered Iranian missiles onboard (50 tons worth of weaponry). No international apology, no outcry against the extremists. Israel has a massive PR problem, but when we are justified... the international community still paints Israel as terrorists (http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-4043392,00.html).
