Israeli military police have arrested a defense force officer who allegedly stole computers from the Gaza-bound aid flotilla intercepted by Israeli commandos in May.

Officials say the officer is suspected of stealing as many as six laptop computers, some of which were sold to other soldiers.  News reports say some of the soldiers who allegedly purchased the computers are also under investigation.

In May, nine pro-Palestinian activists on a Turkish ship were killed after Israeli commandos boarded vessels attempting to deliver aid directly to Gaza, in violation of an Israeli blockade.

The incident increased tensions between Israel and Turkey.

Israel had commandeered several Turkish ships that were part of the flotilla.  However, earlier this month it allowed the ships’ operators to sail the vessels back to Turkey.

Some information for this report was provided by AP, AFP and Reuters.

    Hey Chuckles,

    Too late! Your dashnak Armenian forefathers already took care of that by committing several genocides which will now be settled in several court rooms in Europe and the US! Thaks to Mark Geregos, he’s just openned the floodgates and doesn’t even realize it until just a few weeks ago, but too late. But, he still gets to keep his fees.

    Also, thanks goes out to the governor of Arizona, who now has set a precident for Erdogan, if he wishes, to deport the 100K illegal Armenians in Turkey! All he has to do is point a finger to Arizona’s immigration law and simply do the same thing!!

    Look Chuckles, here come the dancing bears!!!!
