Here are the pictures from the AP: http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5jVq5_qVfEU7G8sQDbjpN64rMmdtQD9G5TC3G0 which show soldiers from the 1st wave being held on the ship. They were released by the IHH itself.

Make up your own mind.

How did they win the PR war? They haven't, they just never seem to win the short-term hysteria, the long-term truth seems to go their way more times than not.

Try and fit the photos from the IHH in with their original protestations of innocence... See how they fit with what the IDF described. I know we have some people here who have serious issues with AIPD, but facts are facts, and photos released from the IHH which tend to clear the IDF, are facts (voluntary release of material tending to ones own discredit is ALWAYS probative).
