Well well well.. it appears Reuters News likes to edit pictures. We were lead to believe that there were no weapons being wielded by the IHH activists. IHH's own photographs clearly show one of them holding a bloody knife. Reuter's editor(s) felt it best to kind of, you know, crop that out so that you would believe that big bad Israel shot unarmed humanitarian workers. Mmmm hmm.
Makes you wonder what they (and many other news agencies) have edited in the past to get their own agendas fulfilled.

By their own admission IHH has said that the "activists" on the boat were armed, and with more than just what they could detach from the railings.
Reuters is EU based news, thus it's not surprising that they want to soften any role that one of their members might be accused of. In this case Turkey for loading up the boat with radical islamists who had an alternative agenda.
It's interesting to note that while there was much ado about a second boat being sent (and loaded up with famous persons) that no further word on the topic has been produced. Strange huh?
