According to Israeli officials, the 102-page report concludes that Israel's naval blockade of Gaza was legal, as was the interception of vessels trying to break the blockade; the IHH activists behind the flotilla were looking for a violent provocation; there was a relationship between the Turkish government and the IHH; and the IDF soldiers defended themselves after coming up against premeditated violence by those on the ship.
The report also concludes, however, that the soldiers used excessive force.
The report calls on Israel to express regret, which it already has done, for the loss of the nine lives on the ship, but doesn't call for an apology. It also calls for Israel to pay compensation to the families, which Jerusalem already said it was willing to do if the Turkish government set up a fund.
So what is Real Real Liar getting at?
