      They said from the beginning that they were only there to rescue anyone should they end up in the ocean. Not to protect the aid boats.

      The fact that they openly said that tells you all you need to know about thier governments.

          For once, it doesn’t have to be blackmail. The Zionists have Uncle Sam. Relations between the EU and the US are already not the strongest they’ve been. Risking the ire of a large power like that is not exactly smart diplomacy.

          Would it have been the right thing to do? Absolutely.

      Being there likely saved Gretta from getting merc’d by an IDF sniper.

      They’re not doing enough, but they’re also not doing nothing.

        they did absolutely nothing, stopped following then when they reach the orange line, which is not gazan or Israeli territorial waters, but the heart of the Mediterranean where Israel likes to attack civilians.

        They literally turned around before they reached the Israeli boats. So no, that didn’t happen
