Israeli warplanes in 'incident' with German ship off Lebanon: military
Oct 25 3:00 PM US/Eastern


Two Israeli warplanes were involved in an armed incident with a German ship patrolling Lebanon's waters as part of the UN force in the Arab country, the German military told AFP.
A spokesman for the command of the German mission in Lebanon said it was investigating the incident which took place on Monday.


According to Thursday's edition of the Tagesspiegel newspaper, two Israeli F-16 warplanes fired shots as well as anti-missile defence flares while flying low over the German vessel.

I mean really guys, how hard could it be to defend shooting at the UN......AGAIN!

Israel is fast spending the world's sympathy for its (largely self imposed) plight.

3. Someone today asked me to take part in a divestment of Israel.
I was asked to stop supporting corporations that do business in Israel and to pressure my college to stop contracting with such companies. I have not agreed yet because I forgot to ask what their goal was. I can't engage in a movement if their goal is something I don't support, or something ridiculous or impossible.
