How exactly? They didn't bring any actual weapons, everything was what you would typically find in a mob and taken from items on the ship. No guns, no explosives. They attacked armed soldiers who had questionably boarded their ship. For all we know these civillians had good reason to fear for their lives when they attacked the soldiers with make-shift weapons. I very much doubt the taliban would bother taking ships with humanitarian aid to Palestine even.
