A Lebanese journalist holds an anti-Israel placard during a protest in front of the Al Jazeera TV office in Beirut February 5, 2009, against the Israeli seizure of a freighter trying to break the blockade of the Gaza Strip. It was the first apparent attempt by a foreign ship carrying aid to reach the Palestinian enclave since Israel ended its 22-day offensive in the Gaza Strip two weeks ago. No weapons were found aboard the Tali, a cargo vessel flying the flag of the West African state of Togo, an Israeli army spokesman said. REUTERS/ Mohamed Azakir (LEBANON)
