Israel apologizes sending link of video parody of Flotilla debacle

[whosinpower]

snip - The Israeli government has apologized for sending the press a link to an online video parodying last week's deadly commando raid on a flotilla of pro-Gaza activists.The video, which promptly went viral, has stirred up further outrage about the fallout from the raid, with some calling for the video's apparent creator, a Jerusalem Post columnist, to be fired for spoofing the circumstances of an attack claiming nine fatalities.

I wonder how long Caroline Glick - the creator, will keep her job?

2. Israel apologizes, but at least they TRIED to be funny, right? ... crickets...

Yea... what a masterful attempt a humor, no? Or was it just a "we don't give a flying f*ck what anyone thinks, just watch" kind of moment. Either way, the fact that Israel apologizes for the flotilla parody video at all shows you that sometimes, even Israel can cross the line. Mess with the helpless Palestinians all you want, but piss off the Facebook crowd and you're in real trouble.
