Check this one out:

daylife.com

No photoshopping, but the text reads:

Blood is seen on steps onboard the Gaza-bound Turkish ship Mavi Marmara in the international waters of the Mediterranean Sea early May 31, 2010. Israeli marines stormed the Turkish aid ship bound for Gaza on Monday and nine pro-Palestinian activists were killed, triggering a diplomatic crisis and an emergency session of the U.N. Security Council. Picture taken May 31, 2010.

To me, that captioning is implying the blood came from the dead activists, whereas we’ve seen wounded Israelis being dragged along that stairwell. It makes no mention of the attack on the Israelis.
