The Audacity of Dopes

Wanna know who's dumb enough to challenge the Israeli Defense Force and try and run the naval blockage of Gaza?  These people.  They're the passengers on a poorly named vessel "Audacity of Hope".  Gee, I wonder where that name came from?

It's a collection of American morons who are apparently hoping to follow in the footsteps of Rachel Corrie.  Remember her?  Here's a photo:

She was the Southern California woman who went to the Gaza Strip, and while taking a break from burning American flags and chanting anti-Israeli and anti-American slogans, decided to try and stop an IDF bulldozer that had been sent to destroy the home of a suicide bomber.  Corrie got herself tenderized when the bulldozer refused to stop for her moral superiority.

Given that the head of Code Pink is one of the Audacity of Dopes, perhaps a well placed torpedo or anti-ship missile could remove that inflamed boil from the butt of Mother Earth.

UPDATE:  The dopes may not be sailing after all:

Six ships which were slated to take part in the Gaza-bound flotilla are being detained by the Greek port authorities, Ynet learned Sunday night.

Senior officials in Jerusalem have confirmed the report, which followed a Sunday decision by Greece to stop the US vessel "Audacity of Hope" from participating in the sea-bound convoy.

While the organizers of the maritime convoy claim that more than 1,500 activists are set to take part in the initiative, it now appears that no more than seven ships, carrying 200-500 passengers, will participate in the flotilla.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reiterated Sunday that Israel will not allow any ships to breach its blockade of the Gaza Strip.
