"I said Israel will attack any boat carrying doctors and medical supplies," [Roseanne Barr] wrote on her blog, adding that, "Israel is a NAZI state. The Jewish Soul is being tortured in Israel."

In her post, Barr likened Hamas to "street gangs" in the Los Angeles neighborhood of Watts, saying that Israel's military campaign is the "equivalent to Los Angeles attacking and launching war on the people of Watts to kill 'the Bloods' and 'the Crips.'"
