INDIANS INVOLVED IN IRANIAN DIRTY BOMB

The incident described in the story below has received virtually no
media coverage or investigative reporting. We have no way at this time
to confirm the veracity of all the details in the story.

However, enough details in the story ring true that we believe it our
duty to make sure our members are aware of this. The key paragraph of
the story is this:

   Although American intelligence and government sources are
maintaining a strictly observed silence, the same does not apply to
the Russians and so it is that we learn the real story of the MV Iran
Deyanat. She was an enormous floating dirty bomb, intended to detonate
after exiting the Suez Canal at the eastern end of the Mediterranean
and in proximity to the coastal cities of Israel. The entire cargo of
radioactive sand, obtained by Iran from China (the latter buys
desperately needed oil from the former) and sealed in containers
which, when the charges on the ship are set off after the crew took to
the boats, will be blasted high into the air where prevailing winds
will push the highly dangerous and radioactive cloud ashore.

Even if what this story reports turns out to be inaccurate, the fact
remains that the Iranian government's stated intention – the
destruction of Israel and the United States – coupled with its ongoing
efforts to manufacture nuclear weapons of mass destruction, make the
scenario below very plausible…if not now, sometime in the future.


Hijacked Iranian Ship Was A Dirty Bomb Meant For Israel On Yom Kippur

Hijacked Iranian Ship was a Dirty Bomb Meant for Israel on Yom Kippur

On August 21st, 2008, the MV Iran Deyant, 44,458 dead weight bulk
carrier was heading towards the Suez Canal. As it was passing the Horn
of Africa, about 80 miles southeast of al-Makalla in Yemen, the ship
was surrounded by speedboats filled with members of a gang of Somalian
pirates who grab suitable commercial ships and hold them and their
cargos and crews for ransom. The captain was defenseless against the
40 pirates armed with AK-47s and rocket-propelled grenades blocking
his passage. He had little choice other than to turn his ship over to
them. What the pirates were not banking on, however, was that this was
no ordinary ship.

The MV Iran Deyanat is owned and operated by the Islamic Republic of
Iran Shipping Lines (IRISL) - a state-owned company run by the Iranian
military that was sanctioned by the U.S. Department of the Treasury on
September 10, shortly after the ship's hijacking.

According to the U.S. Government, the company regularly falsifies
shipping documents in order to hide the identity of end users, uses
generic terms to describe shipments to avoid the attention of shipping
authorities, and employs the use of cover entities to circumvent
United Nations sanctions to facilitate weapons proliferation for the
Iranian Ministry of Defense. The MV Iran Deyanat departed Nanjing,
China, July 28, and, according to its manifest, planned to sail to
Rotterdam, where it would offload 42,500 tons of iron ore and
"industrial products" purchased by an unidentified " German client".
The ship has a crew of 29 men, including a Pakistani captain, an
Iranian engineer, 13 other Iranians, 3 Indians, 2 Filipinos, and 10
Eastern Europeans, stated to be Albanians.

The MV Iran Deyanat was brought to Eyl, a sleepy fishing village in
northeastern Somalia, and was secured by a larger gang of pirates - 50
onboard and 50 onshore. The Somali pirates attempted to inspect the
ship's seven cargo containers but the containers were locked. The crew
claimed that they did not have the "access codes" and could not open
them. Pirates have stated they were unable to open the hold without
causing extensive damage to the ship, and threatened to blow it up.
The Iranian ship's captain and the engineer were contacted by cell
phone and demanded to disclose the actual nature of the mysterious
"powdered cargo" but the captain and his officers were very evasive.
Initially they said that the cargo contained "crude oil" but then
claimed it contained "minerals." Following this initial rebuff, the
pirates broke open one of the containers and discovered it to be
filled with packets of what they said was "a powdery fine sandy soil"
….

Within a period of three days, those pirates who had boarded the ship
and opened the cargo container with its gritty sand-like contents, all
developed strange health complications, to include serious skin burns
and loss of hair. And within two weeks, sixteen of the pirates
subsequently died, either on the ship or on shore.

News about the illness and the toxic cargo quickly reached Garowe,
seat of the government for the autonomous region of Puntland. Angered
over the wave of piracy and suspicious about the Iranian ship,
authorities dispatched a delegation led by Minister of Minerals and
Oil Hassan Allore Osman to investigate the situation on September 4.
and they witnessed some of the deaths due to exposure to 'something on
that ship.'

The Somali pirates initially set the ship's ransom at $2 million and
the Iranian government provided $200,000 to a local broker "to
facilitate the exchange." The $2 million dollar ransom agreement,
which was supposedly secured on September 6th, never took place for
reasons unknown. After September 10th, sanctions on IRISL were applied
specifically because the company was said to engaged in illicit
operations on behalf of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps.

Serious negotiations were broken off completely. Iranian authorities
subsequently denied that it agreed to the price nor had paid any money
to the pirates. Nevertheless, after sanctions were applied to IRISL on
September 10, Osman says, the Iranians told the pirates that the deal
was off. "They told the pirates that they could not come because of
the presence of the U.S. Navy." The region is patrolled by the
multinational Combined Taskforce 150, which includes ships from the
U.S. Navy's Fifth Fleet. Subsequently, it was disclosed that the U.S.
government had offered to pay $7 million to the pirates to "receive
entry permission and search the vessel." Officials in the Pentagon and
the Department of State have consistently refused to comment on the
situation.

The exact nature of the cargo remains officially a mystery but
officials in Puntland and Baidoa are convinced the ship was carrying
weapons to Eritrea for Islamist insurgents. "We cannot inspect the
cargo yet," Osman said, "but we are sure that it is weapons."

The US Navy (and the French and the Russians) have been hove to off
the coast of Eyl, going anywhere once released, it will be seized once
it gets to sea. The specific clauses that have been approved in both
the UN and in Congress would allow the US Navy to seize the ship under
the suspicion clause. The claims that there are weapons onboard, and
the possibility there might be chemical weapons, has insured there is
at the very minimum, an inspection of the ship by outside authority
will be mandated. At this writing, the MV Iran Deyanat is at anchor,
watched closely by American, French and Russian naval units.

Although American intelligence and government sources are maintaining
a strictly observed silence, the same does not apply to the Russians
and so it is that we learn the real story of the MV Iran Deyanat. She
was an enormous floating dirty bomb, intended to detonate after
exiting the Suez Canal at the eastern end of the Mediterranean and in
proximity to the coastal cities of Israel. The entire cargo of
radioactive sand, obtained by Iran from China (the latter buys
desperately needed oil from the former) and sealed in containers
which, when the charges on the ship are set off after the crew took to
the boats, will be blasted high into the air where prevailing winds
will push the highly dangerous and radioactive cloud ashore.

Given the large number of deaths from the questing Somali pirates, it
should be obvious that when the contents of the ship's locked cargo
containers finally descended onto the land, the death toll would be
enormous. This ship was nothing more nor less than the
long-anticipated Iranian attack on Israel. Not the expected rocket
attacks (which could be intercepted by the Israelis) but an even more
deadly and unexpected attack by sea. It is very interesting to note
that the Israeli government has in the past few weeks, been loudly
demanding that the United States establish a naval blockade of Iran.

The reason for this blockade would be to prevent any more Iranian
ships with deadly cargos from attacking either Israel or other targets
from the sea.
