Can someone please calmly explain how blocking a freeway across an ocean and a country on a different continent, is supposed to have any effect on a political issue in the middle east?

People just abandoned their cars on the highway and walked away. They knew it was going to take all day and they had places to be. :P

Some people were confused and thought it was a Syrian protest too, not sure the message got through, haha.
