If the blockade is legal and a ship is asked to stop for inspection and doesn't, then sinking it would be legal. It's as simple as that. Your logic is always faulty.Blah blah blah. The ignoramus has spoken again, trying hard to sound intelligent but failing as usual. Even the anti Israel UN has called the Israeli blockade as LEGAL.Do you ever read International Law or do you just like to blather nonsense?
"In 1909, an international law was agreed upon that differentiated between "contraband" and "non-contraband" shipping. "Contraband," defined as weapons and other materials used in military manufacturing, could be controlled and blockaded during a war. "Non-contraband" cargoes like food, cloth, and raw goods could not be regulated through a blockade; countries could still import and trade these items."

UN Report Finds Israeli Blockade legal
UNITED NATIONS — A long-awaited United Nations review of Israel’s 2010 raid on a Turkish-based flotilla in which nine passengers were killed has found that Israel’s naval blockade of Gaza is both legal and appropriate.
The blockade may be legal, but sinking neutral shipping carrying humanitarian aid is not.
