What is this? He was born in the US and lived here only for the first two years of his life. Neither of Furkan Dogan's parents are US citizens. Was he in fact a "citizen" anchor baby whose parents actually returned to their homeland of Turkey?

Hmmmmmmmm....wonder what the ties of Ayers and Dorne were, if any, to that Turkish ad for "aid" volunteers?

Hey OP, did you express similar outrage when Palestinian terrorists executed the disabled American hostage Leon Klinghoffer on the hijacked cruise ship the Achilli Lauro in 1985; or, does anti-semitism dictate that Klinghoffer's death was a-ok but Dogan's somehow is not because he was not Jewish?

Fukan Dogan was born here and not of parents who were citizens. He was a citizen in name only unless there is some other proof, an "anchor baby" of age 19? Did he register at age 18 for the selective service as is required of male citizens of the US? Did he file a tax return in the US? Did he register to vote? Did he return to claim his US citizenship at the age of 18? Did he exercise any rights or responsibilites of US citizenship other than being born on US soil?

Why was Fukan Dogan affiliating with Insani Yardim Vakfi (a.k.a. IHH) a known terror organization?

Answer me those questions please before you get too sick.

First off, where in the report did it say the bullet that killed him was fired by an Israeli soldier? When the Israeli soldiers boarded the ship, they were attacked and in some cases, their guns taken from them. He could have been shot during the initial attack in which the Israeli soldiers were fighting to defend themselves and he was in the crossfire or he could have been executed by his fellow passengers to be used as a martyr for the cause against Israel.

Their laws don't require a trial before execution?

It's not criticism of Israel that makes me suspect anti-Semitism, but rather how Israel is criticized.

For instance:

Notice how Israel is likely the worst nation on Earth? As opposed to North Korea or Russia or Iran or Saudi Arabia or pretty much any country with a FAR human rights record or aggressive foreign policy. How come I never hear this people ever mention any of these nations? Okay, sometimes they mention Saudi Arabia, but only to bring up the fact that it is officially an American ally.

Now, I am not too familiar with the incident in question, but from what I do know, it does sound like Israel is in the wrong regards the events that took place after the vessel was boarded. But do not act like a very similar incident would not have likely happened with any other Middle Eastern country.

My point is there are many here who defended Israel's actions immediately after this incident when little/nothing was known about what actually happened, these are the same folks who chant 'Anti-Semite!' at the mere hint of someone accusing Israel of any wrong doing.
