This is the best the BBC can manage today...
Hamas claims to have captured a dolphin being used as an Israeli spy off the coast of Gaza, local media report.
The militant Palestinian Islamist group, which dominates Gaza, says the mammal was equipped with spying devices, including cameras, according to the newspaper Al-Quds (in Arabic).
Hamas 'seizes Israeli spy dolphin' off Gaza - BBC News
Hell of a tricky business, beheading a dolphin, I expect, but the upside is you can barbecue it afterwards and throw an alfresco picnic. Soy sauce, lettuce, a mung bean or two.
Selling the cameras might even turn a profit.

The American military are also known to train Dolphins to attach mines to submarines, amongst other tasks. We should do our own 'dirty work', rather than involve an innocent creature in our scurrilous activities. Humanity really 'sucks' sometimes!
As does the news!

Hardly the best the BBC could manage all day, what about the Greek PM's resignation, the Calais meeting, Glasgow Bus inquiry for just a few ?
You are being flippant aren't you ?
Have you considered either the Israelis are using dolphins to spy, or the news is to make the Palestinians look silly for propaganda purposes ?
The Telegraph is running with the story to make all Israeli opponents past present and future appear ridiculous HERE

The only aspect of the item that caught my interest was whether dolphin tastes more like beef or pork, and who I might know as could tell me. It was a common enough dish in the Royal Navy until turbine engines came in, somebody must remember.
I've been building spreadsheets all week, it's starting to get to me.

It's non-kosher, before you ask.

It tastes like chicken. You are correct, it is non-kosher. Jewish law says we must eat only dumb mammals, hence, no pork either.

A simple yes would have sufficed.
