    Israel offers the option to deliver aid through its ports (Ashdod) and then land route. Exactly the place where the flotilla was brought to and their aid then continued on land by truck to Gaza.

      Israel extends an empty gesture they have no intention of actually doing hence all the aid not coming in. Similarly even in a blockade aid is specifically allowed or the blockade is illegal, seizing an aid ship and deporting is crew is strong evidence it’s an illegal blockade which is why they allowed all this to happen. It’s gotta get to court somehow and doing this to white celebrities is bound to get more traction then some other group attempting the same.

        The amount of aid getting into Gaza is constantly increasing and at more than 50 trucks per day. The whole supposed aid flotilla didn’t even bring a full truck of aid. It’s a political stunt, not about actually delivering aid effectively.

          So Israel claims, they also claim they aren’t murdering people and yet there’s these piles of murdered people all over the place.

          It’s a political stunt, not about actually delivering aid effectively.

          Correct! The thing they announced was to draw attention and test it the blockade was legal in court like was done in 2019 was indeed to do exactly that! That said if you didn’t know in 2019 they boarded a ship and murdered 9 people it’s quite lucky nothing similar happened this time.
