    Default Missiles fired at USN ship

    "Attackers Fire Missiles at U.S. Navy Ship
    AP - 23 minutes ago

    AMMAN, Jordan - Attackers fired at least three rockets from Jordan early Friday, with one narrowly missing a docked U.S. Navy ship and killing a Jordanian soldier. It was the most serious militant attack on the Navy since the USS Cole was bombed in 2000. Another rocket fell close to a nearby airport in neighboring Israel, officials said. Jordanian and Israeli authorities said militants fired the Katyusha rockets from a warehouse in the Jordanian Red Sea port of Aqaba."

    Katyushas? Those things are awesome! Even if only for the lighting effects.

    Well you don't see Israeli and Jordanian authorities agreeing every day either... that alone is worth a fireworks display.

    Our genes maybe in the basement but it does not stop us chosing our point of view from the top.
