"Arms smuggling heightens Iran fears"
U.N. BAN IS DEFIED
"Tehran may be building arsenal, helping militias"

SHARJAH, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES -- The warning came almost too late. The
freighter ANL Australia had already fired its engines for a 70-mile
dash to Iran when customs agents here were alerted to a possible
hidden cache of weapons on board.
Inspectors from the United Arab Emirates quickly swarmed the ship and
uncovered a truck-size container packed with small arms made in North
Korea. Concealed deeper in the ship was the real find: hundreds of
crates containing military hardware and a grayish, foul-smelling
powder, explosive components for thousands of short-range rockets.
The nature of the cargo, seized in July and described for the first
time in interviews with officials and analysts in the UAE and
Washington, has raised fears that Iran is ramping up efforts to arm
itself and anti-Israel militias in the Middle East. Israeli officials
have warned that they may use force to prevent Iran from developing
nuclear weapons.
The freighter seized in this port enclave was one of five vessels
caught this year carrying large, secret caches of weapons apparently
intended for the Lebanese group Hezbollah, the Palestinian
organization Hamas or the Quds Force, a wing of the Iranian
Revolutionary Guard Corps that supports insurgents in Iraq, according
to U.S. and U.N. officials and intelligence analysts. In three cases,
the contraband included North Korean- or Chinese-made components for
rockets such as the 122mm Grad, which has a range of up to 25 miles
and which Hamas and Hezbollah have fired into Israel.
Among the weapons components discovered aboard the ANL Australia were
2,030 detonators for 122mm rockets, as well as electric circuitry and
a large quantity of solid-fuel propellant, according to an account
given by UAE and U.N. Security Council officials. The materials were
bought from North Korea and shipped halfway around the globe in sealed
containers, labeled as oil-drilling supplies, that passed through a
succession of freighters and ports.
An Israeli raid last month on a ship in the eastern Mediterranean
reportedly netted hundreds more 122mm rockets. Israeli officials said
the freighter was bound for Syria and was carrying 500 tons of
armaments intended for Hezbollah. Similar caches were discovered this
year at a port in Cyprus and aboard Russian and German cargo ships
searched by U.S. Navy teams.
A U.S. intelligence official familiar with the UAE episode
acknowledged that U.S. spies "played a key role" in tracking the
shipment, but he declined to elaborate.
The surge in smuggling is a direct challenge to the Security Council,
which is convening a special panel this month to review Iranian
violations of U.N. resolutions banning such weapons shipments. U.N.
and U.S. officials say sanctions adopted by the world body against
Iran appear to be having little effect, and Iranian leaders continue
to defend their right to aid groups they call "fighters in the path of
God."
"We are proud to defend Hamas and Hezbollah," Ali Larijani, Iran's
parliament speaker, said at a news conference in May. "We are not
trying to hide it."
High-seas shell game
The route chosen by North Korea to deliver the rocket components
eventually seized by the UAE was hard to track. According to shipping
records, the 10 large cargo containers left the North Korean port of
Nampo on May 30 on a North Korean vessel, and two days later they were
transferred to a Chinese ship in the port city of Dalian, in northern
China.
From there, the containers were ferried to Shanghai, where on June 13
they were moved to a third ship, the ANL Australia, a Bahamian-flagged
freighter owned by a French consortium. Spokesmen for the freighter's
owner and operator say they received sealed cargo containers along
with manifests that listed the contents as oil-well equipment.
By mid-June, the cargo had left Shanghai on the ANL Australia, which
followed a meandering course through East and Southeast Asia, pausing
in mid-July in Dubai, one of the world's largest seaports. Then it
left on the final leg of its journey, to Shahid Rajai, on the shores
of Iran's Strait of Hormuz.
Because of international sanctions, Iran and North Korea have been
forced to buy and sell military-related technology through clandestine
means. Iran, in particular, has favored a strategy of redundant
purchases from multiple vendors, assuming that some shipments will be
discovered and stopped, said David Albright, a former U.N. nuclear
inspector who is president of the Institute for Science and
International Security, a nonprofit research group in Washington.
Using such schemes, and employing a network of front companies, Iran
has managed to obtain key technology and equipment for advanced
missiles as well as a sophisticated nuclear program.
"These networks have spread like the Internet, and as they get bigger,
they get even harder to destroy," Albright said. "They use fronts to
obtain all kinds of technology from major suppliers, including Europe,
Russia, China and the United States."
Gulf states crack down
For years, Dubai served as a convenient hub for Iran's illicit
procurement network. But two years ago, the UAE began what U.S.
officials acknowledge is a serious crackdown on Iranian trafficking in
military technology. Its government has enacted tough export controls,
restricted the number of business visas to Iranians and closed
numerous suspected front companies, according to UAE officials as well
as Western intelligence officers and independent analysts.
But government officials and analysts acknowledged that the UAE's
capacity to shut down trafficking is still being developed, and much
of the illegal trade in the region consists of cash-and-carry
transactions that are harder to detect and control.
The crackdown also is not without costs. The UAE, which conducts
nearly $15 billion in annual trade with Iran, has received numerous
complaints over what Tehran calls unwarranted interference by UAE
regulators.
Yet, UAE officials insist that they are acting in their own interest,
and not in response to pressure from the United States or anyone else.
"No one can tell us that we can't have legitimate trade," one UAE
official said. "But we were coming into a crunch, where we had to make
a choice for the sake of national security: We either have to do a
better job of stopping this trafficking or prepare to live with a
nuclear Iran."
UAE officials faced that dilemma July 22 when alerted to possible
contraband in the ship bound for Iran, the official said.
After the containers holding the arms and rocket materials were
removed, the ANL Australia was released to continue its journey. The
propellant was left on UAE soil, where it remained as recently as this
week. The U.N. sanctions committee has filed a formal query with North
Korea, but there has been no response.
UAE officials say they are awaiting the arrival of U.N. witnesses to
begin the process of destroying the fuel.

threats. Either you exist or you die.
That's Iran's dilemma. It is amazing no one mentions what capability Israel
has to destroy Iran. It is the world either you eat or being eaten.
The only legitimate rule of life is survival. Iraq was too naive when under
the attack of the coalition, they couldn't foresee what was coming. The
Iraqi national museum is looted and the whole country is in total
destruction.
It will take a hundred of years to rebuild Iraq as it was before Saddam or
probably never. If you know you are going to be attacked and destroyed, why
not plan for the best defense and also for the best offense for that matter.
No one can blame the people who are arming themselves in preparation for the
coming disaster.

Fucking Komin the Pedophile Turd
Komin the uneducated racist from Cambodia claims to have studied in
Sherborne School, Dorset, UK (very Celtic).
If nothing else, English Public schoolboys pride themselves with being
able to speak and write the King's English.
Despite going to Sherborne School, Komin the Cambodian turd still
writes as though he picked up the English language from American
servicemen frequenting his mother/sister's brothel in Phnom Penh.
Komin has clearly never benefited from the wisdom of his teachers in
Sherborne. He should have listened to his teachers there, instead of
playing with his small dick at the back of the class.
Komin the pedophile Cambodian - if I were you I would be asking
Sherborne School for my money back!!! I'm sure Sherborne would be
happy to rid themselves of any association with you as well.
