and also clearly marks its vehicles so they aren't attacked by mistake, I have to conclude that this was no accident.
The Israeli's got what they wanted; a suspension of activity in Gaza of WCK. The people they were feeding will now go hungry.
And the ethnic cleansing of Gaza continues.

And WCK was their last chance, these brave volunteers were willing to go anywhere, but no one can blame them if they could be facing death.
