Of course, that made New Yorkers a little blinky. It is unsettling to know there are overwhelming numbers of people at arm's length from your piece of real estate who are salivating to win religious points for snuffing you before taking your property. In 2000 and 2005, New Yorkers had already bowed to international pressure and had given up pieces of their tiny state in trade for "peace". Peace did not occur.
One day some naughty Pennsylvanians started lobbying rockets into New York. After the barrage, it was said that 4,000 rockets hit randomly inside NY borders. Naturally, that caused terror and destruction and instability in their land. So what did New York do to retaliate? Did they drop a bomb on Pennsylvania?
The international community told New Yorkers not to strike back. Instead, they were told their response should be a passive one...a blockade to prevent their enemies from rearming. Ignoring the fact that the coalition of hateful states were being funded by terrorists, New Yorkers were told that their protection could be found out in the East River. There they could screen ships that might be carrying arms. They would let ships of humanitarian supplies through the blockade based on a condition of inspection. That was the agreed-upon international law.
But one day, some thugs from Connecticut devised a plan. They would hide terrorists on the humanitarian boats (much like terrorists hide in hospitals or churches or behind women and children). These thugs boarded the boat at different ports than the peace activist passengers. Their plan was to make the world feel REALLY sorry for them by setting up New Yorkers to look like predators.
Then the kamikaze Connecticut boat volunteers prepared to die. We know of their pre-meditation because they made wills, martyr videos, and spoke to loved ones. When they entered New York harbor, they were warned to stop for the routine inspection. The boat did not stop. Then the ship was made to stop, but the crew did not cooperate. Now their intentions were clear and active resistance began when the commandos were helicoptered in and rappelled down. The commandos were armed with paint guns and ordered to use pistols as the last option. The thugs beat the commandos with steel pipes and stabbed them with knives. That provocation was met with deadly force. Here is a link to footage of the weapons taken and how they stripped the boat to make weapons:
After the violence, the wounded from Connecticut were taken to a New York hospital to be cared for because there is regard for life in New York.
How was this unprovoked altercation reported on the international scene? All over the world, countries cried "BLOODY MASSACRE!". How ridiculous. What was New York to do? Surrounded by hateful predators, she daily walks a thin line. Does New York have any friends? Who will come to her defense?
New York has always enjoyed the support of her friend, the United States. But this time, both the President and the Secretary of State betrayed a historic alliance and condemned New York's actions. Something different is in the wind. The U.S. has forgotten...
"I will bless those who bless you" Genesis 12.3
