Israel cannot cite international law to enforce the blockade because the blockcade itself is against international law. So all those statements you use in your argument to defend Israel's killing of civilains (which in turn are subject to the previous points which you failed to mention) cannot be used in this case. In fact the UN has called on Israel to lift the blockade but like dozens of other UN resolutions Israel contines to defy the international community and ignore them as it has been doing for decades. In fact Israel is well versed in piracy on the high seas, it's nothing new to them they've been at it for decades mainly between Cyprus and Lebanon.
