"Germany Reacts to Monday's Raid

Political leaders around Europe have blasted Israel this week for its military's deadly attacks on a flotilla of pro-Palestinian activists trying to break an Israeli blockade against the Gaza Strip early Monday morning.

Politicians and celebrities -- including Swedish bestselling mystery author Henning Mankell -- from a number of European countries were participants in the 'Free Gaza' flotilla."
