Mavi Marmara Did Violate International Law

Humanitarian Aid on Mavi Marmara
A lawsuit against Israel Re: the Mavi Marmara incident was dropped by Kuwait because "the ship had violated the international law by entering the Israeli territorial waters without permission."

It is only a tiny item in the Arab Times (you need to go to the very bottom of the article), but it is there, in black and white.

Now if only the rest of the world would open their eyes and try to see beyond the hate...

Also:
KUWAIT CITY: The Ministry of Justice intends to shelve the case which has been filed by MP Dr Waleed Al-Tabtabaei and others against the Israeli government for humiliating and assaulting them while they were aboard the Turkish flotilla which was carrying humanitarian assistance to the people of the Gaza Strip in Palestine, reports Al-Dar daily.

It has been reported the ministry was preparing to file a lawsuit in international courts but was advised by lawyers not to go ahead with the suit because Israel could win the case and Kuwait would end up paying billions of dollars in compensation because the ship had violated the international law by entering the Israeli territorial waters without permission.
