A Human Rights activist says Israel will continue its crimes against humanity since the international community allows the Israeli regime to get away with its “bloody murders.”

In an interview with Press TV, rights activist Ken O'Keefe, who was on board a Gaza-bound aid flotilla attacked by Israeli forces in May, denounced the international community for allowing Israel “to get away with murder over and over again without any kind of punishment.”

“I have scorned the world such as the United Nations, the European Union and the United States because we have allowed Israel to get away with bloody murder for decades now,” O'Keefe noted.

“It would of course make sense to the Israelis that anything they do is perfectly legal,” O'Keefe went on to say.

The rights activist pointed out that he was on board the Mavi Marmara when Israeli commandos' raided the ship and "executed people in cold blood."

The Israeli forces killed nine activists, mostly Turks, and injured about 50 others.

Israel has recently released a report of an inquiry by an Israeli investigation committee, defending a naval assault on the Gaza Strip and the decision to prevent the flotilla from reaching the besieged territory, saying the attack was "legal."

“They didn't just murder people, they executed people in cold blood including Furkan Dogan, who they continually call in the liberal Western media a Turkish citizen, but he happens to be a Turkish American citizen,” O'Keefe added.

US President Barack “Obama and the Western governments continue to pretend as if one of their citizens were not executed,” the rights activist concluded.
