(BLOG) Similarity Between 'Freedom Flotilla' And 'Lifeline 3'

"The notorious Gaza Freedom Flotilla in which terrorists lured Israeli commandos into a violent trap on the Mavi Marmara was preceded by a less famous land convoy to Gaza, Lifeline 3, that bore many similarities to the flotilla, and was also largely made up of Turks.

Analysts in the Intelligence and Terrorism Information Center have now published a report that shows the terrorists learned from the mistakes they made in the convoy and applied the lessons in the flotilla.

Intelligence gatherers in Israel, it seems, were not able to connect the dots between the two initiatives in time to warn the IDF of the potentially violent nature of the flotilla."
