Nothing like a group of dumbed-down thug terrorists...hopefully this will backfire and we will see Egyptian outrage. This should be good.

This war is escalating madly. Scary times we live in, for sure.

UN denounces Israel for moving out of the way, causing loss of innocent lives.

To be funny, humor must have an element of truth in it.

That's precisely why I damn near drowned on my soda when I read your very witty response.

I wonder where they got the missles. Since they have hit two ships, do you think they have anti-ship missles and not unguided rockets?

Good thing we don't live in Israel, eh?

Scary, alright. Just imagine having to deal with it on a day to day basis for the last.....what....15 to 20 years (when the terrorist crap started).

John Kerry was at the helm and has already submitted a Purple Heart request.

Hezbullies are paranoid and are lashing out wildly, without regard for the consequences. The little runts need a dose of healthy discipline. They're been running wild like children without consideration for the rules for a number of years now. I think they should be neither seen nor heard.

I read the ship was 10 miles out to sea.

What guides these drones TV? Need to adjust countermeasures to that bandwidth.

Wouldn't be surprised if they were readying to fire a missile, themselves.

I might bet that the Egyptian ship was doing recon for Hezbollah to help with targeting of Israeli ships
