This isn't about what was on the ship but what could have been on the ship. Why didn't they let the soldiers inspect the stuff?
How were the soldiers expected to know what was on board?
All they knew was that the organisation
claimed that they only had relief stuff on board.
Would you trust a safety check at an airport where everyone just claims whether he/she has weapons/explosives etc. with him/her? Or would you rather trust in a safety check that deserves that name?
@Merchant Raider
Have you ever been attacked with a baseball bat or similar weapon?
This things can kill and even if they don't they are more than enough to fracture your bones. I would so like to see you in the situation of those soldiers and stay calm and saying: Hey, everything is cool, it's just bats and rods.
