We have been informed—but we refuse to believe—that the White House was linked to the Islamic Flotilla headed for Gaza.
First of all, the White House would not condone the illegal behavior of the pro-Palestinians on the Mavi Marmara.
Second, the White House knew that the objective of the Mavi Marmara was to aid Hamas, which the American State Department has listed as a terrorist organization.
Third, the White House has always pursued an "even-handed" or morally neutral Middle East Foreign policy vis-à-vis Israel and its Arab enemies.
Fourth, the White House knows that Iran gave the green light to the Gaza Islamic Flotilla to distract attention from Iran's nuclear development program which the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff vigorously opposes.
Fifth, the last thing the White House wants is a conflagration in the Middle East which would obviously stop the flow of oil through the Persian Gulf on which the American and world economy depends.
For these and other reasons, we know that a democracy like the United States would not aid or abet the agents of totalitarian Islam.
