YES

She doesn't necessarily have to be on the ship, it only has to be in the context of her sailing into Gaza. Resolves No once her sailing trip is over (and she is again in some country that is neither Israel nor Palestine).

She and some of the crew went through a quick detention process and then deported, I think this market should resolve YES if this process (which most media used the word "detained" for) counts. otherwise resolve NO

I now realize that I should have been more accurate in the title, but I'd say that arrest = detention in common speech (even if it is not the same if you are being super pedantic)

@HannesLynchburg You should ping @traders when you alter or clarify the criteria.

bought Ṁ10 NO

I'm assuming being killed also resolves no.

@JessicaEvans I agree.

@JessicaEvans lmao as if that was ever on the table

@NicoqyPZ Sorry, it's just hard for me to tell who Israel treats as a moral subject. Their decision making is opaque to me.

@JessicaEvans might want to do even one iota of looking into it. The way they operate is pretty clear and just because the calculation doesn't with them unable to defend themselves doesn't mean there is no calculation.

@NicoqyPZ There's no amount of looking into it that can clarify things for me.

@NicoqyPZ The mental shortcuts people take when angry, don't model reality. And there is no common frame of reference for them except in other people who take similar shortcuts when angry.
