Which blockade?
To use your source, which is of course unbiased

Despite attacks by Hamas, Israel maintains an ongoing humanitarian corridor for the transfer of food and humanitarian supplies to Gaza, used by internationally recognized organizations including the United Nations and the Red Cross.

Both of those internationally recognised organisation formally complained that vital resources were blocked and that the approved crossings were unable to handle even the minimum required volume of humanitarian aid which Israel is obliged to let in.
Though since the worldwide objections to the action and another senseless round of violence Israel has relaxed the conditions and now allows passage of such "illegal terrorist goods" like errrrr...pasta, blankets and paper for example.


Onto more of the usual rubbish
Quote:
International law regulates the formalities of a blockade at sea. the Israelis have been confirmed to be in full compliance with these rules, the blockade has been found to be formally legal both in reason and implementation.
No they havn't, and they have publicly apologised for errors in both compliance and in implimentation.

Quote:
Just one single ship or boat managing to break through would nullify the legal formal validity of that blockade - the blockade would have been been broken up then.
A breach of the blockade in no way alters the legality of a blockade, that is like saying an illegal alien entering a country nullifies all immigration laws



So it does raise a question, why are you two such ardent supporters of Hamas?
After all they are the only ones really benefitting from the blockade you seem to be in favour of
