 * If you are referring to its existence per se, then it’s in the film World War Z. Age of Empires II also has it. My definition is my interpretation of the locution. --Æ&#38;Œ (talk) 12:23, 3 November 2013 (UTC)


 * Delete. Does it have any meaning other than SoP? All the cites I can see refer to literally driving one's opponents into a sea. Could you provide the cites you're talking about, Æ&#38;Œ? Hyarmendacil (talk) 03:43, 10 November 2013 (UTC)


 * I probably can’t legally provide them here. Why are you so sure that it’s literal? It’s a fairly common expression, and driving somebody into the sea sounds unusual to me, so I doubt that it is meant to be literal. Just delete it then. --Æ&#38;Œ (talk) 19:03, 11 November 2013 (UTC)
 * I gather that the World War Z quote is from an arab desiring to drive Israel into the sea. I would think they mean into the Mediterranean, not into the desert. Spinning Spark  00:48, 12 November 2013 (UTC)


 * RFV-failed. No citations of idiomatic/non-SOP use (citations that would support the RFVed definition), and indeed no citations of any use at all, were provided in the entry. - -sche (discuss) 22:11, 17 January 2014 (UTC)
