Blocking humanitarian aid to the starving is against international law.
Yes, and Hamas, who is stealing all aid and reselling it to the Gazan serfs should be punished. Any volunteers?
The starving aren’t receiving aid.
ham ass is.
100% of aid is stolen by ham ass upon arrival.
They do resell it to the starving at a massive profit they use to support continued terrorism.

Correct, in theory. But the British naval blockade of Germany in WW1 did much the same. From Wikipedia’s article on the subject:
“The blockade is considered one of the key elements in the eventual Allied victory in the war. In December 1918, the German Board of Public Health claimed that 763,000 German civilians had already died from starvation and disease caused by the blockade. An academic study done in 1928 put the death toll at 424,000.”
Gen. Sherman certainly had it right. War is hell.
With thousands of truckloads of aid piled up, groups of armed men are regularly blocking convoys, holding drivers at gunpoint and rifling through their cargo, according to a U.N. official

Food Aid to Gaza Is Getting Stolen as Fast as It Can Be Delivered
Obviously, I could go on all day.
A couple if points:
1) ham ass steals and resells for terror funding virtually all aid to gaza, so the lack of free aid is their fault.
2) As the author points out, it is well within the rights of Israelis to protest aid that primarily goes to fund the terrorists who murder Jews at every turn.
3) Prolly you’re right that it is wrong and probably illegal to block aid shipments. But one must at least sympathize with the motivation of the protestors: they’re trying to not get killed by the fact the aid will be stolen and turned into bullets to kill them.
