Breaking: At least 40 flotilla "peace activists" were Al Qaeda

It is being reported that Israel has now confirmed links between Al Qaeda and the "peace activists" on the Gaza bound "humanitarian" flotilla boarded by the Israeli military on May 31st.

It would appear that while world leaders continue to condemn Israel's actions in defending itself from terrorism, the Obama Administration continues to dither in it's support of one of our strongest allies in the middle east.

The United States, having experienced terrorism first hand, should stand in support of any nation which takes action against the worldwide spread of terrorist elements.  The "humanitarian organizations", which were likely fully aware they placed civilian activists in harm's way by allowing Al Qaeda elements on board their ships, should be the one's being condemned.

Whether Israel could have handled the situation better is not the question.  What's done is done.  The question is, does Israel deserve the harsh criticism being leveled against them, for likely acting in the name of their own security, while giving the flotilla every opportunity to turn back, or be peacefully boarded and searched?
