Not to mention that much of what was labelled as "food" indeed was construction material and concrete - with Hamas known to massively build a bunker network in the Gaza strip.
How loving and care-taking the Turks and the donators to this human aid expedition have been, one can also see in that all medical drugs that were included (like the other stuff just thrown in to the ship'S comoartzment, in chaos), had their expiration dates already run out - by 2 years and more. Much of the food was not to be consummed anymore, too, also expired since long time. In other words: the ship's
official load was just a foul alibi. The construction material was meant to assists Hamas' military network. Israel allows food into gaza, but constzruction maeriual and any luxurious food that could boost morale (chips and chocolate for example), are banned.
Nevertheless, if you have the money, you can live a luxurious life in Gaza. There is almost nothing you cannot buy, from luxury food to high tech. It's just that only the richest elite and the Hamas functionaries can afford most of that stuff. The ordinary population cannot.
Israel has replaced most of the food at iuts own cost, and then transported it to Gaza - where it was rejected by Hamas. Hamas needs no fed, comfrotable population. It needs a hungry, suffering and hatefilled population with despair and anger in their hearts. Only suffering eyes win the propaganda war in world media,. only angry people tolerate Hamas' tyrannic regime that is not shy of sacrificing its own people - and most of them not voluntarily.
And I recall that Israel claimed to have found weapons, too. No surprise - they came under fire and attack when boarding the ship, being moved on by a mob with the intention to kill.
