it's been going on for two decades, who's to tell another country what is or isn't needed for security? The fact two nations, one majority Muslim has been blockading them as well lends credence to the legitimacy and need no?

Only two decades? I don't know how Gaza hasn't brushed it off and surpassed Singapore economically.
Who's to tell another country? Well there's international law. If I understand your last question correctly the answer is no. That two nations, one being predominately Muslim, enforce an illegal blockade doesn't make the blockade copacetic.

If someone deeply cared and did want to try to help stop the suffering how should they go about it?

There’s numerous options but many are limited in their effectiveness given the distance most have from the issue.

Vote, speak out publicly to raise awareness and support, and donate. Those are some pretty basic options.

Are you saying you support the idea that protestors have a right to “shutdown” roads, train stations, businesses, etc?

It’s wild that his source for this appears to be the equivalent of a message board post

Why didn’t China reveal evidence of CIA interference in their politics such as the Tiananmen Square protests of 1989 and the Hong Kong protests?

Everything was always either the fault of the US government (because all other countries/people lack agency)

Or the Jews. The desire to bring up the Warburg family in general wouldn’t be as big of a deal if not for a massive pattern

Not an odd deflection. Just letting you know that it was the Warburg family that supplied Lenin with the train load of gold.

No the questions asked were simply to get peoples perspective

I personally think protests typically end up being ineffective, we live in a money driven world I think affecting their pocket is a better protest. Personally have never participated in any type of boycott but I think they are more effective

Protests are a tricky subject to me. If I truly believed our government was on the fast track towards a totalitarian state I sure as heck would hope the people defending our freedoms and fighting the oppressor wouldn’t ask permission on when and where they can take arms

I do believe protests get the attention of other voters. I like both occupy wall street and the tea party caught attention and possibly swayed some level of voters for example.

“It’s land back”? Clearly my French is horrible because I have no clue what he’s saying. Unless he was arguing Canada should give back land.

This false notion of originalism in terms of land ownership is one of the most ignorant things the left does.

Maybe to a certain extent with a voters but not much else, especially with the tea party. The Republican Party has only moved further and further away from that

This is a San Francisco State professor. After stating she never condemns resistance, she later goes on to talk about how there’s an open debate over the morality of high jacking planes. This was at “ArabCon”.

And yet some can’t understand why many of us want to limit immigration from the Middle East. Clearly we are just racist

So did BBC in 2010:
www.bbc.com

Gaza fisherman 'killed by Israeli navy' - BBC News

Doctors in the Gaza Strip say a fisherman has been shot and killed by the Israeli navy off the northern coast of the territory.
www.bbc.com www.bbc.com
And here in 2017:

Israeli Forces Kill Gaza Fisherman at Sea

It is difficult to imagine the pain the Bakr family must have felt in July 2014, when an Israel Defense Force (IDF) missile killed four of their children, cousins Ismail, 9; Ahed, 10; Zakariya, 10; and Mohammad, 11, as they played football on the beach in Gaza.
