Okay, hold on here.
Muffinmix, first of all, CNN is not a "not completely handicapped" source. If anything, it's the most handicapped of them all.
Second, Israel isn't stupid. They aren't going to board and detain completely innocent civilians because that would bring them a world of crap. Do you seriously believe that Israel is just evil and wants to kill and detain innocent people for no reason and deal with the consequences? Obviously, something else was going on, but CNN (and every other member of the liberal media) wants to spin it against Israel.
Third, they certainly weren't innocent civilians as 8 people were killed by them before and during Israel's boarding of the ship.
Fourth, do you really think that it's only the Islamic terrorist groups that want to wipe Israel off the face of the earth? Since Syria and Egypt can't beat Israel in a real war, it makes perfect sense for them to fund and support anti-Israel terrorist groups. Obviously, Turkey wants in on the Israel destruction party too, which makes sense, as they all share the same ideology.
Fifth, that ship was purposely trying to go through the Israeli blockade. It's called a blockade for a reason, and any true humanitarian group is going to get permission beforehand from Israel (to let them through), as is done all the time. Obviously, it wasn't a humanitarian group.
What's funny is that another pro-Palestinian ship is trying to break the Israeli blockade and they are going to do the same thing they did with the last ship. Seriously, what's wrong with defending yourself against a ship that either wants to attack you, or is going to give supplies to people who want to attack you?
EDIT: I know I organized this poorly, but I didn't have enough time. Just read through it.
