JERUSALEM - The Israeli military on Wednesday released documents and
photos it said proved Iran was behind a huge shipment of weapons
Israeli navy commandos intercepted last week.
Israel has said the cargo ship its troops seized off the coast of
Cyprus was carrying 500 tons of Iranian-made weapons for Lebanese
Hezbollah militants. The ship had dozens of containers with Iranian
markings on it.
On Wednesday, the military released what it said was the ship's
manifest that showed it was handled by "Islamic Republic of Iran's
Shipping Lines." It also produced labeling from the containers
indicating the ship originated in Isfahan, Iran, and a customs form
stamped by the Iranian armed forces.

Powers: "No that sort of thing's just not my bag, baby!"
"One book, 'Swedish Enlarger Pumps, This Sort of Thing is My Bag,
baby' signed by the author, Austin Powers...."
Powers: "It's not mine!"
//Back to the story....
Alex Vatanka, IHS Jane's security editor, who also examined the
Israeli photographs, said the significance of the Francop capture — if
proven Iran was behind it — was its timing, since it comes as Iran
faces stepped up pressure over its controversial nuclear program.
"What does that tell us about their threat perception, about their own
security priorities?" he said. "It seems to be an indicator of a
certain hardline interest in Iran being almost careless about the
consequences of their actions."

I think it's obvious what's needed here.
More sanctions.

Maybe what's needed is for you to go play "Rambo" over there, neocon.
In other words, walk the walk for once, chickenhawk.

I disagree. I think we should send a strongly worded letter!

the
will and moral courage of free men and women." - Ronald Reagan
Nah. We'll just wait until they've sent enough weapons to do actual
damage, then feign shock and claim that this is an immediate problem and
that we should have a preliminary summit to discuss the matter... 11
months after the fact.

seeing how we are the worlds largest suppliers of weapons to insurgents
anything we say to others about this being wrong is dismissed by them as so
much hypocritical bullshit.{and it is}
the movie 'Charlie Wilson's War' is about sending weapons to "terrorists"
and makes Mr Wilson into a hero for getting it done.
Yes, against Israel.
If he did you would really complain.
Good idea. Just send the letter special delivery. Attach it to
the tail of a cruse missile. Address it to the appropriate mosque.
