    Shooting at international shipping isn’t holding anyone accountable unless you hate shipping corporations. And yeah if you shoot at the military (any military) don’t be surprised when they shoot back.

      It’s clearly made the US take notice (since they care more about trade than people’s lives), so mission accomplished. How else do you propose they do it, given the limited resources they have? Take it up with the UN, where the US vetoes any resolution against israel?

        I suggest they pressure Egypt to allow all aid into Gaza no matter what Israel wants.

        I suggest they donate to the IRC.

        I suggest they go join the people they see as comrades and fight Israel.

        I do not suggest that they declare war on the entire world’s shipping. Which is responsible, in part, for delivering their own Humanitarian Aid. And transferring food and energy the world over. Furthermore effectiveness at getting attention does not equal moral. I don’t get to shoot at random cars on the freeway because I don’t like how the next state over handles homeless people. And they don’t get shoot at random ships.
