Israel's foreign ministry has branded it a "selfie yacht", while Thunberg says she has been "kidnapped" after Israeli forces boarded the vessel.

It's sad that they are so frightened by a boat carrying food, medicine, and baby formula that they are forced to commit a war crime to stop it. Yes, since the boat was in international waters, it is a war crime (and act of piracy) to attack it.

In 2025, you expect Israel to sign up for a ground assault that will kill so many of their own soldiers when the Hamas people are in tunnels? The bar for Israel is impossible to clear.

I guess option 2 of leveling all of Gaza (except the tunnels, somehow) is a much better option.

Doesn’t forgive the suffering piled upon civilians in Gaza but if this IDF claim is accurate (and IDF has made it pretty clear any of their claims require confirmation by credible sources), then it does create a lot of questions about who among UN, WHO and European aid officials knows what about Hamas tunnels under world agency hospitals and other locations.

Fake news! Israel built those tunnels to frame Hamas.

It's sad that you don't understand why they have to stop every boat, truck, etc coming into Gaza.

Bullshit. You don't stop a boat 160 miles from Gaza in the middle of the night with a special ops team in international waters. What's the point of stopping an aid ship?

There will be innocent people that die. Every war has that.

Sure, but do you have any expectation of restraint when one side has immense technological and resource superiority? What’s an acceptable ratio of innocent civilians: armed combatants in such a war? What about innocent Palestinian civilians: IDF forces? How many “bad” children should be sacrificed for the safety of a single ”good” soldier?

Nope, just one well-placed bunker-busting bomb into his tunnel, which happened to be directly adjacent to a hospital.

So yeah, then just take out the hospital while you're at it to get one guy. You show your true colors and just admit that you don't value Palestinian lives. Stop pretending like you care.

They didn't take out a hospital. They took out the bunker adjacent to and beneath the hospital.

I can't even imagine what life must be like for you.

After hundreds of pages, plus many more on the other board; after dozens or hundreds of posts stretching back a year; you come back with the same useless, uninformative, irrelevant maxim you started with.

I would disembowel myself at half that humiliation. It is humiliating for you.

You do when you're at war.

Come on.....Because Israel can't be sure it's only aid. They can't even be sure it's an aid ship.

That's a BS excuse. They can easily search the ship and let them pass. However, they purposefully raided them at night and basically abducted them.
The people on the boat aren't any random people. They are humanitarians, journalists, and government officials. They aren't carrying any weapons.

It's not. They intercepted the boat, as they should.

This was a PR stunt that ultimately impacted nobody except for the fools on the ship who are going to inconvenienced while being detained and deported.
