The State of Israel has Seized the British Flagged Yacht Maureen in International Waters as it Sailed Towards Gaza.

Yes, yours, and your futile attempts at defending your grubby little genocidal regime.
So you have no actual rebuttal to the reference to international law quoted above.
You see why you lost every single argument you've ever had here?

I don't need to rebut it. My link clearly states that boarding and detaining the mariners of an unarmed vessel in international waters is piracy. It isn't the first time the IDF violated maritime law. It is you who thinks he wins arguments here, your projection notwithstanding. Perhaps you should review all the posts others have contributed refuting the lies and propaganda you post.
 
I do't

Maritime law, as shown, allows a nation to enforce its blockade by stopping a vessel in international waters when that vessel declares its intention is to break that blockade. (Duh, makes sense no?)
Sorry that you don't think you "need a rebuttal" but your claims were debunked.

Nope. Nobody was attempting to run a blockade. Of course you have the opportunity to prove that was the intent. So go for it.

What now? You deny that Greta and her crazy buddies declared they intend to bypass Israel's naval blockade on Hamas-run Gaza?
Are you sure that's the argument you're going with now?

The Freedom Flotilla said they were going to aid Gaza. That shows intent to run the blockade.
 
Your opinion piece is noted. Attacking an unarmed vessel in international waters is a crime of piracy. It is you who knows nothing, as usual. I'll wait with eager anticipation of being accused, by you, of anti-Semitism, Hamas support and terror enabling. Don't let me down, ok?
His "opinion piece" actually refutes his claim, as I noted earlier. In short, he's lying. He obviously knows nothing about international law, but everything about excusing criminal behavior. He's an enthusiastic endorser of genocide and war crimes.

Your claims were debunked and there's a reason you cowardly avoided responding further.
 
No, it deserves much more, but what it deserves is not polite behavior.
Well here's you going low making empty threats because you can't manage an intelligent response.
 
There are people here who don't understand what is going on in that part of the worls. This is not just a battle over a few acres of land and freedom for a couple of million Palestinians. This is an existential battle between good and evil. Israel is just the tip of the spear right now.

Oh my. Are you one of those Americans who want to protect Israel because it's Jesus' landing ground for the second coming?

And "a battle between good and evil? Really?
I guess this justifies the illegal settlements (funny how International law is quoted when it suits Israel and ignored when it comes to the settlements) all the evictions of arabs from their homes in the West Bank and starving the non-combatants in Gaza?

Nope.
 
Are you being serious, Sweden? Gaza requires 500-600 trucks of food, fuel and medicine per day to meet the 2 million people's basic nutritional needs. In two weeks, at least 7,000 to 8,400 trucks would have needed to enter. Israel just allowing a thousand or so only confirms that Israel is slowly starving the enclave to death, just like the Nazis did to the Jews of Lodz and Warsaw.


Sorry Greta did not bring an armada of aid ships with millions of tons of food and a couple super-tankers worth of fuel, but she is only one goodhearted autistic girl working against a militaristic country engaged in genocide, with her home country and all of Europe complicit in the same genocide.
I mean part of the reason all those people are in Gaza is because of the war.
 
People believe what they want to. Some choose to believe Hamas, others do not.


Nah, you just believe everything the Israeli state tells you to believe because you hate Muslims.

At least have some degree of honesty about this.
