Iran's Weapons Shipment: The Full Disclosure
On March 5, 2014, IDF forces intercepted an Iranian weapons shipment to Gaza terrorists. For the first time, the IDF has released photos of the entire shipment. With its weapons exposed to the world, Iran can no longer deny its intentions to terrorize Israeli civilians.
Weapons found on-board:
- 40 rockets (type M-302), with a range of up to 160 kilometers
- 181 mortar shells
- Approximately 400,000 7.62 caliber rounds.

The sanctions are basically off, they're still enriching uranium and they're selling oil.
Why would Iran take the risk of
I think Iran is heading down a dangerous path; however, I can see why they are this way. The CIA coup which installed the Shah (which brought about the Islamic revolution), the Iran-Iraq war, the USS Vincennes incident (The CIA stole the black box and to this date no apology has been given), the decade long economic sanctions, the longstanding US support for their arch-enemy, yadi yadi yada.
ReplyDeleteyou're making some huge leaps, ignoring important parts of stories and basically acting as if the US is the great Satan and Iran is living the life of the Virgin Mary.
Deletebullshit!
i'm past the point of believing that the US does no wrong, but to say that the US is the reason why a despotic regime behaves the way it does crosses lines that are clearly marked....and i'm talking real lines not those put down by the President.
As a neutral party here, I would like to point out things from a third party perspective........For the past One Decade, Iran has been Surrounded on the West by an American Iraq, to the East by an American Afghanistan and a so-so American Pakistan. To the South lies the Bahrain fleet and that whole pile of sand called Saudi Arabia and its Sunni sister states, also Allied to the US. With all sides playing sinister/shadow games with each others economies, religion, borders trade zones and the lot, is it surprizing that Iran takes to equiping militias as its own leverage ?
Delete@Sarabvir Singh Touche that Iran appears to be surrounded by so-called American allies, but I have to point out that the powers that be in Iran have hated the current powers that be in the rest of the Arab world LONG before the US became a major player over there.
Deletewell, this is where I would like to ask a SINCERE question-
DeleteIs it the Sunni Arabs hell bent on containing Iran with US help ?
OR
Is it the US hell bent on containing Iran with Sunni Arab help ?
Whats the Origin here ? With no Origin, there can be no improvement. We have to find a Point Zero to this.

DeleteAs regards Israel Vs Iran, the whole world should put ONE TIGHT SLAP (OTS) on the face of both these Greedy Countries. I say Greedy cause one raises tension to feed its political Islamic Jihad Factory and the other raises tension to feed its Military and US Funding Factory.
DeleteThe World should be...........Bitch Please, you dont even share a F'ing border or a maritime route. All your problems are not process/geography oriented but Personality Oriented. So shut the F up.
OTS
Like there is no "the" US there is no "the" Iran.
ReplyDeleteI think that some groups with special intersts try to disturb the talks about the nuclear program.
Latest news: one stolen passport was used by an Iranian student.
This was to easy to detect...
say what? explain please. i don't understand this statement.
DeleteIran is like any other democracy not a solid structure with one ruler at the top like e.g. Putinia. There is even another branch, the clergy. We can just speculate who did know what but you may remember the Iran-Contra affair.
DeleteThey pomp weapons to Hezbollah all the time, for years or even decades. Bad luck for them that this shipment was catch by IDF, but there is probably nothing weird in this. Bad time, bad place. One shipment lost, probably couple of more delivered without problem.
ReplyDeleteMinor detail, these were going to Gaza not Lebanon so they would have been going to Hamas not Hezbollah. Also once in Gaza they is a great chance they would have been turned on Egyptian forces not Israeli.
ReplyDeleteDon't believe. Israel bullshit propaganda!
ReplyDeleteAny sources that say this is a propaganda trick or just "because".
DeleteYou an google translate this :

In Short : the m302 seems to be replica of original one's, and the road of rockets is crazy
Não dou dinheiro para "Agoravox", bando de picaretas!
Deletehehe.
Uma pergunta cretina:
ReplyDeleteComo conseguiram todos aqueles suportes para bater as fotos do armamento depois de tirar do navio?
Há mais: eu nunca deixaria tanta munição real só com sacos plásticos separando.
Coisa errada há nessas fotos... .
