    I don’t think the expectation is they will get through. The goal is to create a scandal that will increase international attention and pressure to make them stop.

    If they hurt Greta I predict there will be a lot of backlash due to her fame and popularity.

      I don’t think sinking this aid vessel would do anything to change the public conversation. The people who are aware already either condemn Israel or support the genocide. The unaware will not care about a handful more dead innocents.

      The bottom line is that Israel is openly and proudly committing atrocities and the international community is not willing to stop it. Only a military intervention could dissuade the IDF.
