A CHINESE FIRE DRILL

If anything,this should be an embarassment to Israel. An elite Seyeret (Navy Seal Special Ops) group making a night boarding on a hostile craft in a restricted area off Gaza armed with PAINT GUNS? Anyone should be morally indignant that they almost got their butts handed to them by Turkish thugs? These guys are probably the best trained military Special Ops group in the world-trained exhaustively with Kapop & Lothar CQC as well as being issued Israel's newest state of the art TAVOR 5,53 select fire battle rifle. Some commander needs to be reassigned to the motor pool.
