Where are the #FreeTheHostages people now?

Don't they have empathy for the kidnapped volunteers of #FreedomFlotilla?

Does anyone care about their safety and well being?

Honestly that would probably have been the smartest move for Israel. Let a token / useless amount of aid get through so they can say “see we’re allowing aid!”, but not enough to matter.

They couldn't tolerate the appearance of weakness or charity, because the Israeli settlers would be engaged as a result.

If anything, not simply killing the crew will likely be reported on as Woke and Soy.
