  23. Israel found a ship that looked suspiciously like an American spy
  24. ship.  They asked the Yanks who, after checking into it, denied that
  25. it was American.  So the Israelis looked at it again and the Yanks
  26. continued to insist that all American ships had been pulled out of
  27. there.  The Israelis said that if it's not American, then perhaps it's
  28. Russian, Egyptian or something else and we're gonna send it away.  The
  29. Yanks said "Be my guest".

  31. Now tell us who fouled up here?
