According to the BBC: "The UN Charter on the Law of the Sea says only if a vessel is suspected to be transporting weapons, or weapons of mass destruction, can it be boarded in international waters. Otherwise the permission of the ship's flag carrying nation must be sought."

Israel complains its soldiers were attacked, but what kind of welcome were they expecting exactly? Lei's and a BBQ?
