Plucky Little Israel

The forces of the Middle East's only nuclear-armed power have intercepted an existential threat comprising thirty activists on a boat with some deadly cement and children's books. The Estelle is the latest of several vessels to attempt a breach of the Righteous State's blockade of Gaza, which was imposed after Hamas won the 2006 elections there, or "after Hamas seized power in 2007" as Britain's leading liberal newspaper hath it. The most notorious such incident was the boarding of a flotilla by the Righteous Commandos two and a half years ago, when nine Turks maliciously self-neutralised in order to make the Jewish people look bad. Fortunately, the people aboard the Estelle seem to have taken a less Islamic view of things.

    As the U.S. has demonstrated, the best existential threats come in small packages.
