Israel controls and occupies the sea off the coast -
not 'patrols', 'occupies'...
al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades, a militant group linked to Fatah, has reported that four of its men were killed - Fatah training off the coast of Hama-held Gaza?

“Good ol’ BBC, being sure to hint that “terrorist attack” is just poor semantics.”
Yeah, no bias there. (roll eyes, exasperated sigh.)

Interesting no suggestion by the fine journalists at the BBC that any of these groups are “terrorist” groups or even terrorist groups or have been involved in intentionally killing civilians. Nice.

“Meanwhile, the Iranian Red Crescent has announced it will send two aid ships to Egypt for onward delivery to Gaza through the Rafah crossing later this week, Iranian state media report.”
To: davidosborne
David - Thanks for your support but Israel has never asked anybody or any foreign force to defend them against attacks, time and time again. Israelis will defend themselves but appreciate US assistance in terms of MORAL SUPPORT, weapons systems and know how. The current Commander & Chief seems to be able to field his golf bag and cart and little more let alone a Company of soldiers... and so far he is renigging on the moral support issue as well.

The version of the article now has a title of "Israel navy kills four Palestinian 'militants' off Gaza".
As if the divers might be members of al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades cricket side, as opposed to being militants (without the quotes).

Well really - there could be a gazillion reasons why palestinians would be scuba diving in right?
Im sure they were carrying humanitarian relief items upon their bodies.

These read like road-runner vs wyle e. coyote episodes.
No wonder I hate coyotes, although they look good as a foot rug. Can't say the same here...

You're missing the most important sentence in this story:
Meanwhile, the Iranian Red Crescent has announced it will send two aid ships to Egypt for onward delivery to Gaza through the Rafah crossing later this week, Iranian state media report.
Iran will intentionally try to provoke Israel.

Thankfully, it seems that cooler heads has prevailed and now the Red Crescent is sending the aid through Egypt’s newly opened gate.

Ha ha ha ha exactly!
In my heaven, I'm hoping for 72 hot sluts. Don't need to spend eternity with virgins.
To: Kickass Conservative
Sea Hunt was great. I really miss the innocence of our youth when TV shows were about good triumphant over evil.
To: grey_whiskers
I guess that means that when the divers get their 72 virgins, they'll join the "mile deep club"...?Great post!
To: davidosborne
Thank you for your service David!
To: COBOL2Java
Thanks for not photoshopping a Helen Thomas face on those virgins.

“The BBC’s Jon Donnison, in the West Bank town of Ramallah, says it is not yet clear exactly what has happened.”
Isn’t it obvious, every parent gets into their scuba gear when out looking for “cheese and missiles for the kids”.
