"The report about the "Victoria" arms vessel seized near Israel's coast Tuesday received little media coverage in the backdrop of the Japan earthquake disaster. IDF soldiers may have been lauded for preventing weapons from reaching terror groups, but the army's PR efforts failed to impress foreign media elements. The IDF invited members of the foreign press to get a close look at the weapons seized on the ship. Foreign reporters left the Ashdod Port outraged after being held up for over an hour at a security check post."
