Answer the simple question. There was no comparison of Israel to the police, the question is about how in general to respond to armed authorities. Who they are matters not.

You have done nothing wrong, say at sea in the Gulf of Mexico. A Mexican vessel (coast guard) approaches, and wishes to board you, and does. Do you attack the boarders with sticks and knives, or do what they ask you to do? The authorities in the scenario ARE AT FAULT for boarding you in the first place—do you attack them, yes, or no?

A simple question.
