I really should have said that this appears to be a violation of International Law. The question should really be "How are the international community going to respond?"
The UN have taken a stance that says that Israel is an occupying force and so this kind of attack seems to be a clear problem for the international community to address:
> The United Nations, Human Rights Watch and many other international bodies and NGOs continues to consider Israel to be the occupying power of the Gaza Strip as Israel controls the Gaza Strip's airspace and territorial waters as well as the movement of people or goods in or out of Gaza by air or sea.[0]

They have the most powerful lobbying group in the US and have many politicians on their payroll. I mean just look at the illegal settlements. Universally accepted as illegal and actual war crimes. Ongoing for decades now and we have rarely seen anything more than an occasionally gentle condemnation. Is it any surprise that the Palestinians are revolting?
