I think they still have Leon Klinghoffers wheel chair from the Achille Lauro, another heroic moment in arab history. The guy who shot Robert Stethem in beirut just got out of jail. Hope US policy is similar to that of israel and that guy will end up dead.

I strongly recommend reading the The Outlaw Sea book I mentioned before. Very interesting read.

The changes are to disguise the ships so that it is not recognized but, your thought on maintaining the markings is provocative -- like that passenger ship that was attacked -- bring a WMD aboard and have a ship full of hostages to boot.
