We apologize that our Israeli commandos acted with logic and taking into consideration the many civilians that were in the belly of the ship and killed only 9 terrorists. If the authorities in Israel had known that the boat held terrorists, the command would have been to kill everyone.

  --- MK Danny Danon (Likud)

Danon said this in a letter he sent to Turkish PM Erdogan in response to Erdogan's demand for an apology by Israel for it actions in the flotilla incident.
