Where is the American Freedom Flotilla?

Dr. Sama Adnan wants to know! While eight other countries summoned their Israeli ambassadors, only silence emanates from the Obama Presidency. His response was painfully muted and embarrassingly awkward, regretting the loss of life without assigning blame or responsibility. However, Israel's continuing defiance in the face of American pressure, given the billions of dollars, military technology, and diplomatic cover at the UN from our United States, how can Israel display blatant contempt for American security needs and foreign policy priorities with such impunity? Does the Israeli government have a dirty secret on every American official, blackmailing them into silence? The reality is, unfortunately not much different: AIPAC has been able to threaten every elected government official with an electoral loss, if he, or she criticizes Israel - It is thought to be one of the most powerful lobbies in Congress. Congressional support for Israel plays more to domestic concerns such as desperately needed campaign funds for tight races, rather than American security concerns in the Middle East. Congressional silence about Israel's excesses guarantees campaign contributions from AIPAC! Please click on the headline of this article for the rest of the story by Dr. Sama Adnan !
