23. Normal shipboard life in the cargo hold?

And, no, I do not remember the IDF threatining deadly force prior to the flotilla. I recall that Israel promised to protect its borders and if anyone was interested in running humanitarian aid into Gaza, a legal method of doing so was available. That these individuals chose to incite violence during a lawful seizure action and take up arms against the lawfully boarding IDF Soldiers explains why the IDF had to return force in kind.
