This is really big!
Is going to have ramifications we can only guess at?
A civilian naval flotilla, purportedly carrying much needed supplies, sailing from Turkey to the Gaza Strip, intercepted on the high seas by Israeli naval commandos, numbers dead, the flotilla not able to breach the Israeli naval blockade of Gaza, ships and crews now imprisoned.
Thanks to CBS News.
"At Least 10 Killed as Israel Storms Aid Flotilla"
"Israeli Military Claims Commandos Encountered Armed Activists Who Had Planned to Attack Troops; Many Injured"
"Israeli commandos on Monday stormed six ships carrying hundreds of pro-Palestinian activists on an aid mission to the blockaded Gaza Strip, killing at least 10 people and wounding dozens after encountering unexpected resistance as the forces boarded the vessels."
Of course, even from the very beginning of Israel, from over sixty years ago now, there have been events [affairs] of this nature. Ships, carrying refugees or war munitions, intercepted on the high seas prior to arriving in what was at the time British Mandated Palestine, confrontation, conflict, lives lost.
1. The Exodus Affair. 1947. Carrying refugees from the Holocaust to Palestine, in violation of British policy, the ship being turned back, force being used by the British!

"The British Royal Navy cruiser Ajax and a convoy of destroyers trailed the ship from very early in its voyage, and finally boarded it some 20 nautical miles (40 km) from shore. The boarding was challenged by the passengers (the ship was in international waters where the Royal Navy had no jurisdiction), and so the British soldiers used force."
[the famous movie "Exodus" is based upon this incident!]
2. The Altalena Affair. 1948. Ship carrying war munitions, bound for Palestine, under the control of the Irgun. Jurisdictional and legal dispute between the constituted Israeli authority and the Irgun developed into an "incident", the Altalena being fired upon the by the Israeli military, lives lost, bitterness and resentment long-lasting as a result.

"The Altalena Affair was a violent confrontation that took place in June 1948 between the newly-formed Israel Defense Forces and the Irgun, a paramilitary Jewish group. The confrontation involved a cargo ship, Altalena . . . which carried weapons and fighters for the Irgun."
The interception of this flotilla sailing from Turkey can only make a situation that is already bad enough get much worse? Turkey and Israel have for some time now been exchanging "words" and apologies!
The Prime Minister of Israel has even called off talks with President Obama in response to the "crisis" that has now developed.
This is serious and bad serious!!
