| edited for brevity. Armed Palestinians in wetsuits and flippers emerged from the Mediterranean and fired toward a beachfront Israeli settlement in the Gaza Strip, the army said Friday. Two attackers were killed and a third was wounded and fled. Paleo-phibians?
Yeah, a real tsunami. You guys should concentrate on training more and running your sucks less if you want to be any good. Thousands of Hamas supporters marched in the West Bank towns of Nablus and Ramallah on Friday, threatening revenge.
No shit, ya think? The blast which killed Ahmed al-Abed, of the Al Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigades. In the Gaza attack, the assailants came ashore late Thursday. From the beach, they fired assault rifles and rocket-propelled grenades toward the Israeli army post guarding the settlement, and soldiers returned fire. Obviously the soldiers did better. Ari Odes, a Tel Katifa resident, said he and his wife were driving toward the settlement when they heard shooting. Moments later, he saw the attacker on the road, aiming at the car, Odes told Israel Radio. "I pulled my head down and tried to aim the wheel so as to run him over but he jumped onto the shoulder of the road and I drove into the settlement," Odes said. "There was a second terrorist who shot massive fire at the gate of the settlement and the outpost." An Israeli army officer said the Israeli navy spotted three men swimming toward the beach and that two approached the settlement. A third man was wounded and footsteps indicated that he fled into the sea, said the officer, identified only as Lt. Ayelet. Soldiers found rocket-propelled grenade launchers, assault rifles and explosives on the beach, along with flippers. The military believes the attackers were trying to build a bomb on the beach for use in an attack on the settlement, she said. Paleo-seals - swift, silent, incompetent. Tensions have increased significantly since Israel assassinated Yassin on Monday. At the United Nations, the United States on Thursday vetoed a Security Council resolution that would have condemned Israel for the assassination. The U.S. ambassador complained that the text did not mention Hamas attacks against Israelis. Damn right. At Friday noon prayers at Jerusalem’s Al Aqsa Mosque, Islam’s third holiest site More amusement from our little warriors in paleostine. | ||||||

| #5 I have a mental picture of the next Yusuf Bond film, with the paleophibians emerging slowly from the sea, spitting out their regulators, hoisting their rifles, and fleetly running along the surf with their flippers still on. "Yar! We be pyrates!" |

| #3 The video also contained footage of a training session in which two men charged toward a rocky cliff, firing assault rifles. They proceeded over the edge of the cliff to their deaths. It was not a very impressive video. |
