According to tracking data, the Global Sumud Flotilla — which includes 58 vessels — was located near the Greek Island of Crete, hundreds of nautical miles (over 1,000 kilometers) from Israel, when confronted by Israeli forces.
By the morning hours of Thursday, Israel’s Foreign Ministry said the Navy had detained some 175 activists. In total, the Navy intercepted 21 of the Global Sumud Flotilla’s 58 vessels, security sources said.
The Navy has called on the remaining activists to either turn back or sail to Ashdod if they have humanitarian aid, where it will be inspected before entering Gaza. If they continue on their course, the Navy said they would also be stopped.

Your post is fine. Ignore agitators who just like to shoot the messenger or start arguments.
Russia has lost the war. The Russian economy has been destroyed
We’d looked forward to these Nazis and useful idiots’ boats getting themselves sunk.
Nevertheless, the Israeli defense forces’ operation sounds very good. Breaking this stupid publicity stunt
up.
Any legitimate aid (if there is any aboard it wouldn’t amount to much) will be safely channeled through proper screening to remove any weapons. More Sid isn’t needed since Israel has donated more than 10,000 full truckloads of free food and humanitarian supplies (plus IDF has enabled some smaller donations from Jordan,UAE, and USA).
I’d still sink the boats. But maybe they can carry some of the Hamas terrorists to Spain and Sweden?

I like when it is done this way. It gives an opportunity to jump into the conversation with a new thought that is not directed at the

Those look a lot like drug smuggling boats to me. Didn’t one boat from Spain (that figures) turn around because one of the main dudes was trying to bang all the “chiks” on board? Except greta......😵
Because the green-red pro-islamic hypocrites are allergic to efficient fuel oil at sea, their 58 “sailing vessels” can actually only deliver and unload about 1 pickup truck load of “food” for the starving Gaza children from each boat.
The rest is used to feed the boat’s crew on their incredibly slow trek for publicity and praise. Publicity and an insane level of hatred for the world’s Judeo-Christian culture is their real cargo.
