How it changes anything? It doesn't change the fact that the IDF commandos got an hostile response to their boarding attempt, nor does it change the fact that there's a video that clearly shows one of the activists trying to stab one of the commandos in the back, nor does it change the fact they were running the blockade even after being warned many times not to do it.

To end up shooting people with impovisioned weapons is disproportionate reaction! this is why police does not shoot at protesters during street fightnings even if they violent and put them in danger...

Maybe it's because you have room to maneuver on the streets and there's usually a whole bunch of officers to back you up. You can bet your arse that if in a riot, few officers are massed up against by a dozen rioters clubbing them with steelrods and whatever they can get their hands on, that the officers will do whatever it takes to get out of that situation. Even use deadly force.
