    Well sure, they knew this was a likely outcome - because they know the Israel government is batshit. The purpose of the mission was aid and activism. They definitely knew that arrest was likely, but that’s not why the did it. They didn’t want to be detained. They just want to help the people of Gaza in whatever way is within their power. This is how they chose to do it.

    It may not be perfect, but it’s definitely more effort and effect than doing nothing. And the more people who get on board with some actions, the more likely they are to succeed.
