Given the tactics used by the Israelis during the attack (unmarked aircraft, jammed radios, targeting antenna and gun mounts, firing 5 torpedoes, machine gunning life rafts in the water, helo-borne assault troops) quite possibly their intent was to sink the ship and kill all of the survivors in an effort to blame the Egyptians for the attack to get the US to enter the war on the side of the Israelis.
