The Islands history took a blow in 1972 when an El Al flight from Tel Aviv landed full of terrorists who took control of the aiport and declared Vagar as an Israeli outpost and that the Faroe Islands were now part of Israel including Waveland. The offical language was changed to Hebrew and Vagar became 'Jew City' with 10 new Synagogues built within the week from Cardboard and Sheepskin. A new circumcision ward was added to Jew City General Hospital, opened by Rabbi Bum-Mashalahek, and was put into immediate use. Natives were not pleased with the new administration and many refused to use Hebrew as their first language - a new form of Faeroese circulated called 'New Faeroese - Neu Føroyst' which was made illegal within the week. Eventually the Terrorists realised that they achieved nothing by capturing the Islands and had basically just pissed everyone off for 3 years. Faeroese control was reinstated on 23rd June 1975.

I find it hard to believe that Vágar is the only airport in the Faroes. -- Bjarki 19:44, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
