McKinney Tries to Deliver Medical Supplies to Hamas

by Stephan Tawney on December 30, 2008

Yeah, as in former Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney of Georgia. You know, the one who assaulted a Capitol Hill police officer because he dared ask for her credentials when she wasn’t wearing her identifying pin. Apparently the loony sympathizes with the State Department-designated terrorist group.

An Israel Navy ship clashed on Tuesday with a small boat carrying international activists with aid destined for Gaza, an Israeli Foreign Ministry spokesman said.

There were no reported casualties from the incident involving the small cabin cruiser “Dignity” that sailed from Cyprus late on Monday. …

Free Gaza Movement told Reuters their boat, carrying 3.5 tons of medical aid with 16 people aboard, was rammed and shot at while in international waters about 70-80 miles off Gaza by Israeli naval vessel.

Palmor denied there had been any shooting although the two ships made “physical contact.” He said no one had been hurt and that the Israeli ship escorted the aid boat back to Cypriot territorial waters.

What moron would sail a yacht into a warzone patrolled by the Israeli Navy in an attempt to assist Hamas? Oh, right, the same one that believes the Department of Defense killed 5,000 prisoners during the week of Hurricane Katrina and dumped their bodies in the Louisiana swamp. Maybe Hamas will let this embarassment to our nation move in with them.

Incidentally, it’s no surprise that McKinney sympathizes with terrorist groups. Daniel Pipes looked at donors to her political ambitions and found a who’s who of radical organizations. Couple that with her and her family’s not-so-secret distate for Jews and you get a loon that thinks sailing a yacht filled with medical supplies for terrorists into a warzone  is a good idea.
