Ignoring the finger-pointing, the practical outcome is that Israel can cross another ally off the list. You can bet that Israel won't be willing to apologize and try to redress the offence to Turkey, because Israel truly has no regrets when it comes to using any amount of force in response to a threat, no matter how disproportionate or diplomatically insensitive.

Israel is building a self-fulfilling prophecy where it really is Israel alone, isolated, and surrounded by enemies. It acts only in the interest of Israel, and any country which fails to take its allies' interests into account will eventually find itself without any allies.

Probably.

The real mistake on Israel's part is the fact that they didn't take into consideration the possibility that some of the "peace activists" are violent Jihadist calling for the death of Jews.

And anyway boarding these ships was a mistake, the Israeli forces should've just neutrlized their engines (after entering Israeli waters) and make the ship stop in their tracks, while providing food, until the "peace activists" would agree to hand over the supplies (like they should've done in the first place).
