by Steve Shalom: “But What Could Israel Do” from a very good resource, the Israeli Occupation Archive. This is one of the best critiques I have seen of the Israeli and New York Times version of what happened Monday, May 31, 2009 when Israel killed nine people on the Mavi Marmara, who were bringing humanitarian supplies to  Gaza.  Steve Shalom’s article places Israel’s attack in the context of the ongoing Israeli aggression and blockade of Gaza.
