American, 19, Among Gaza Flotilla Dead


A U.S. citizen who lived in Turkey is among the nine people killed when Israeli commandos stormed a Turkish aid ship heading for the Gaza Strip, officials said today. The victim was identified as Furkan Dogan, 19, a Turkish-American. A forensic report said he was shot at close range, with four bullets in his head and one in his chest, according to the Anatolian news agency. -Source: ABC NEWS

Furkan Dogan, who was born in New York, was shot five times, including four times in head. That is not self defense, that is execution.

Obama is studying the situation.

McCain thinks we are not doing enough to support Israel in this crisis.

Biden wonders what all the fuss is about.

What happened to this country? I remember a day when our government sent in troop to protect American medical students in Grenada. Look where we are today. A foreign government illegally bored several ships in international waters (which is an act of war), some of which were flying the American flag, and then shoots one US citizen in the face (four times) and our government does nothing? What is wrong with that picture?

All these politicians, including the hundreds who take campaign money from AIPAC which represents the nation that just hijacked a US flagged ship in international waters, kidnapped 12 Americans, and murdered one, all hope they can convince you that we need to fight more wars against these ‘enemies’ of Israel.

I disagree.

We need to defend our borders here at home–not send our young men to die fighting the perceived enemies of Israel in Iran (or Yemen, Somalia, etc). What has Iran done against America? We are already expending American lives, resources and treasure in Iraq, Afghanistan, Somalia, and Yemen. Will be now add Iran to that list? If we do, what will be the response from China and Russia? Do we really want to start World War III when our own boarder remain unprotected? How stupid is that?

No government can serve two masters and a government that serves Israel cannot serve the American people. A politicians who proclaims themselves a friend of Israel thus in the same breath proclaims himself an enemy of America.

America needs leaders who put America first, second, and third.

America needs leaders who put America first, second, and third.

America needs leaders who put America first, second, and third.

Period. End of story.
