A Palestinian woman and youth pass in front of shops closed as part of a general strike by Palestinians to protest against the Israeli naval commando raid on a flotilla attempting to break the blockade on Gaza, inside Damascus gate, in Jerusalem's Old City, Tuesday, June 1, 2010.


That's logical.
In protest of something that happened thousands of miles away, we will be completely unproductive. Makes total sense.
I'm sure there is more to the story that what is being reported. I can't imagine the Israeli military being to arbitrary.
