This has been ongoing with the Israeli blockade for YEARS now.

We should treat Israel exactly the way they've treated Gaza. Blockade the Nazraeli scourge.

We should never treat anyone the way Israel treats Palestinians.

I wish I could agree with you but there's no other way to make them change their behavior and calling for simple defunding/ disarmament has accomplished nothing. We can blockade them first and save measures like white phosphorus burning and blowing innocent non combatants to smithereens for later if that's what it comes to. The reason they lobbied and achieved a ban on anti Israeli boycotts in the US is because such a boycott would more than decimate their tiny asses. We did worse to occupied Iraq with less evidence.
