This riled up the protesters / aid workers / lefty wing nuts on the boat as well as make them believe the IDF wasn't going to use lethal force. So when the soliders board they attack believing the soliders don't have real guns. Once attacked the Soliders fight back using lethal force.
To me that scenario is the only way to explain why the people on the boat were rioting before being boarded.

The helicopters were overhead. The people also had an entire boat trip to sit around and discuss their defiance, which spilled over into violence the moment the IDF came. The video we have is also not in sequence. There may have already been soldiers on the boat at the point we see the people rapelling down from the copters.
