Israelis kill American – Joe Biden says: “What’s the big deal?”
“The U.S. confirmed that an American citizen, identified as 19-year-old Furkan Dogan, was killed by multiple gunshots during the Israeli raid on a flotilla carrying activists attempting to run a blockade of the Gaza Strip. “State Department spokesman Philip J. Crowley said the U.S. has made no decision on a response to Dogan’s death.” Apparently official Washington is torn between issuing a mild protest, and thanking them. “Protecting the welfare of American citizens is a fundamental responsibility of our government,” Hillary Clinton assured the media, “and one that we take very seriously” – but not seriously enough to issue an official protest. “We are in constant contact with the Israeli government attempting to obtain more information about our citizens.” Do they want to know how many holes the IDF put in Furkan Dogan’s head before they make a decision on a response? http://redactednews.blogspot.com/2010/06/israelis-kill-american-joe-biden-says.html
