Israel and the Fleet

I generally admire the Israelis, they're nice, clever, tough, and when they put they're minds to it, impressively devious. At some point they will have to admit, though, that the current U.S. president is not on their side, and anything he says can be safely ignored. Everyone else has figured this out by now, so join the club.

The next ships to set sail for Gaza, full of humanitarian aid, should be torpedoed in the dead of night by one of those clever little submarines they have, several of which are currently minding their own business over in the Persian Gulf.

Press releases can be immediately sent out decrying the unfortunate early detonation of some of the aid being carried, and mentioning how dangerous it is to carry such stuff.

Howls of indignation, of course, will be heard all over the middle east. Just like any other day, but when the neighborhood cop quits walking the beat, you're on your own.
