Description | The deadly Israeli raid on ships taking humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip has sent a shock pulse through the international community.
Though the United States is urging against a rush to judgment, Israel's longstanding critics immediately condemned the early morning raid Monday as a criminal act. As details trickled out about the circumstances of the confrontation that left at least nine pro-Palestinian activists dead -- all of them on a Turkish ship that refused to allow a cargo inspection -- it became clear the incident would have widespread diplomatic implications.
The raid comes in the middle of several delicate diplomatic negotiations, any of which could be set back by the incident. Israeli peace talks have been thrown into doubt, and the incident could imperil efforts to win tough sanctions on Iran at the United Nations. |
