#1 Dang it, the Israelis should stop these boogers far out in international waters, using covert means with plausible deniability. There must be a multitude of ways to screw up a boat at sea.

For every boat they disable, one or more will have to remain with it to render aid. And if it is disabled enough to not be repairable at sea, it will have to be towed to some neutral port.

#2 Gaza aid flotilla undeterred amid Israeli warnings

IOW: They are not concerned for their lives because they know the Israelis are humane.

#4 A few 76mm rounds through the wheelhouse should "disable" them enough for Israel to then tow them to Ashdod. The idiots pushing this should be given 10 years of hard labor, so they will know they will pay for their provocation. Sinking them with all hands should be an option, also.
