I'm not saying this as a joke, I'd sincerely like clarification on this:

three Britons missing in the Occupied Territories

I thought when Israel abandoned (or whatever you want to call it) the settlements in Gaza, that it represented a total withdrawal.  Why are they being called Occupied Territories?

Because the Foreign Office just like the Foggy Bottom is full of bigoted anti-Israelis (and then I'm being kind).

Well spotted by the way!
