Gaza Boat Explodes
2009-04-13
A booby-trapped fishing boat exploded on Monday
am local time
near an Israel Navy vessel off the coast of the northern Gaza Strip.

No one was wounded in the blast, which occurred about 300 meters from the Gaza coast, near the border with Israel. The Palestinian vessel was laden with explosives, but was unmanned.
The Paleos have a drone ship?
The blast was heard further along the coast in Gaza City. Local Palestinian media, however, did not immediately report on the incident

It was a big boom.

No one was wounded in the blast

Are we sure there wasn't a MARTYRTM On the boat who's with his vestil doe-eyed virgins by now?

#3  Would it be too much over the top if I suggested that if it was filled with Muslim extremists it would still be unmanned?

#2  A simple, if unmanned and heavily laden with high explosives, fishing vessel.
