I have literally been rendered speechless. Live ammunition being used for no reason against innocent civilians, whose sole aim was to aid those blockaded in Gaza.

The incident is still being investigated. This was in no way a propotionate response to stones being thrown at a car.

The Israel Shield
http://english.aljazeera.net/news/americas/2010/05/201051412713367443.html
The amount of money being fed into this 'project' is simply ridiculous. There are people in the world that are in need, and would benefit with this sort of funding.
Here are some figures quoted in the article:
According to the US state department, US military aid to Israel in 2009 totalled $2.55bn. This will increase to $3bn in 2012, and will total $3.15bn a year from 2013 to 2018.
More information coming soon.

Talks resume
