Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/August 2010 rocket attack on Eilat/Aqaba
There seems to be a consensus on Wikipedia that terrorist attacks are notable. This one is especially notable because of its international nature, its highly unusual method (launching missiles from the Sinai peninsula), its high profile target (a popular and usually quiet Red Sea resort town) and its ramifications re relations between the Palestinian Authority and Hamas, Egypt and Hamas, and re the US State Department's designation of Eilat. The nom and all the deletion advocates so far have said nothing more than "" without any attempt at substantiating the implicit argument that this attack is ''merely'' news. The fact that this AfD is part of a pattern of attempting to remove specifically terrorist attacks committed by a particular group (Palestinians) is troubling
