Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) on Sunday charted a new strategy for Israel in its war with Hamas, with the chances of a diplomatic solution to the conflict appearing increasingly remote.

This might be a tacit admission by the Israelis that they need to do more - but more likely the measures are a response to allies.

The Israeli military has intercepted a Gaza-bound aid ship, detaining 21 international activists and journalists and seizing all cargo, including baby formula, food, and medicine, according to the Freedom Flotilla Coalition.

Israeli special forces have raided a new “freedom flotilla” boat trying to deliver food and baby formula to Gaza.

For years, Gazans haven’t had free access to this precious natural resource. Israeli limits on fishing activities have fluctuated with tensions with Hamas, with limits of just three nautical miles and even previous total bans on fishing imposed at times.

Israel has long restricted aid to Gaza on the argument that Hamas steals it to use as a weapon of control over the population. On Saturday, the Israeli military announced new airdrops of aid.
