"Israeli authorities have given us until midnight tonight to change course and head to the port of El-Arish [Egypt]; otherwise they are threatening to intercept the boat with their navy," said Mashallah Zwei, one of the organizers of the sailing aimed at challenging Israel’s sovereignty over the coast off of Hamas-controlled Gaza.
The News identified Zwei as a member of the Qaddafi Foundation, an alleged charity. He said by satellite phone that the request would be "studied before a response is given." The foundation said that the Israeli Navy is “shadowing” its vessel, named the Almathea, which will reach Gaza Wednesday morning if it continues on its present course and at current speed.
Leaders on board the ship earlier had said they would head for Egypt if confronted by the Navy, which was trapped into a violent clash May 31 with terror activists aboard a ship sponsored by the Turkish-based IHH origination. It since has been revealed to be a charity front for terrorist-linked activities and support.

just a little side note to this one joe. the story is a little off on time lines. the IHH is and has been linked to terrorist groups sence the mid 1990s. In 2006, a report issued by the Danish Institute for International Studies stated that during the 1990s the IHH maintained links with al-Qaida and a number of "global jihad networks." The report also said that the Turkish government launched an investigation into the IHH starting December 1997 after receiving intelligence that the IHH had bought automatic weapons from Islamist terrorists.
a French intelligence report found that in the mid-1990s IHH leader B’ulent Yildirim recruited soldiers for jihad activities in a number of Muslim countries and that the IHH transferred money, firearms, and explosives to jihadists in said countries.
turkey in my mind will be the next afghanistan!
Sink the ship !
This will be used as the excuse for the next World War
