"It means that it’s registered in the United States."

I understand what it means. I'm asking why are we allowing this ship to be flagged by us? This means it is under our protection and we have a duty to ensure that it has safe travel on the world's waterways. We are we affording that protection to a bunch of terrorist lovers who want to provoke Israel?

Consider the name of the vessel.

While the WH would deny it publicly, I suspect this little escapade has support from the very top.

I find nothing in their stated intent or the name of their vessel that would be in conflict with the position or actions recently taken by Barack Husein Obama. It is a high price a nation pays for permitting the state indoctrination of it’s children.

I'm not a lawyer, but not only has the US recognized the embargo as legitimate, I believe we were a signatory to the agreement after the Israeli withdrawl which turned the Egyptian border over to the Euros, and left Israel in charge of sea traffic. We've no obligation to American flagged vessels acting illegally. Maybe an obligation to prosecute if the agreement rises to the level of a treaty.
