I don't know how it was advertised in the US, but over here its tagline was "Rebels without a clue". I daresay the activists in question aren't too pleased with that. :lol:
It is. I wanna watch their precious speedboat get run over and then them all cry about it like little girls.

Over here they are thought of mostly as Hippies at Sea.

Seems more accurate IMO. I caught a few minutes of it a day or so ago, couldn't make heads or tales of what was actually going on.

Why, what other reason could there be? ;)
Well personally I watch it with the vague hope that one day I'll get to watch them all drown...

Don't worry, Graham. I'm sure there's still a couple of WW2 era mines floating around the Pacific somewhere. :wink:

I'd say that mass drowning falls under the category of "fail."

Though it would be funnier if they all got eaten by whales before they could drown.

And moving onward, Israel has decided to allow construction materials in - overland, at least. Let's see how this point of give is reciprocated. Oh, that's right, it won't be.

It'll be reciprocated all right - if the Israelis are giving Gaza steel piping then the Gazans will give Israel steel piping. Via rocket.
