Flotilla Terrorists Came to Kill IDF Soldiers

January 24, 2011

January 24 2011- Militant Islam Monitor-Testimony from IDF soldiers reveals that soldiers who boarded the IHH flotilla expecting to be confronted by peace activists were instead met by terrorists intent on martyrdom.

Solders have told Israel National News:

"They choked me and tried to throw me into the sea from the starboard side of the Mavi Marmara…I realized that my life was in danger and that they were trying to kill me and to throw me into the water to kill me…At that point I felt a sharp blow to the left side of my stomach, and I realized that I had apparently been shot," he testified.

One of the commandos told the committee, "As soon as I hit the deck…they started hitting me with iron bars I also saw a terrorist holding an axe… Then a terrorist ran toward me with a knife and stabbed me in the chest as hard as he could…and all the time they kept beating me with iron bars. They beat my head, my stomach and my legs..." http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/141915

One solder who had been stabbed recounted how he saw his intestines spilling out while being dragged down a ladder. Some soldiers were strangled and shot.

The terrorists also refused medical care when the IDF came back to treat the wounded hoping to die as martyrs.

The IHH is a Turkish NGO which has been linked to Al Qaeda.
