If this is indeed the case, it means the Iranians are projecting WMD worldwide.

Hasn’t this happened before with a hijacked ship?

Is the article current or many months old?

If this is indeed the case, it means the Iranians are projecting WMD worldwide. But even more important, the pirates have violated Islamic Law...

“The Sunday Times reported that the pirates became ill, suffered apparent skin burns and lost hair.”
Just Cool.

Didn’t this happen last year? Is this an old article?
The Iranians have sent chemical weapons to their allies in the past and they have been used in Africa.

I have been trying to figure out WHAT happened to THIS ship and its CARGO. We all read about it and all of a sudden the story fell off the map. Not a thing since. The idiots opened the cargo up to see what booty they got.....Surprise!
If anyone has the whereabouts I’d like to know. Supposedly it was intended to be part of a radialogical bomb when set off along the coast of Israel.
As I say...storys about it have been scarce indeed.

But don’t worry, I fully expect Senator Hatch or somebody to make a big stink about this on Capitol Hill, and then express outrage on Sean Hannity’s show sometime in the next week. Boy, that’ll show ‘em. And for all of us, quick, send faxes to our Congressmen. And emails. Let’s go. Yeahhhhhhh!

I am somehow doubting this story because oft the crew. Wouldn’t they be affected, too?

apparent skin burns and lost hair
Sounds like mustard gas.
It was probably a blister agent if the skin was burned. Could've been Lewisite, phosgene oxime, or phenyldichlorarsine as well.
The hair loss kinda sounds like radiation poisoning though.

News reports on this have been quietly disappearing over the past year. Seems google search has a “1984” element/faction at work. Google search the vessel name: M/V Iran....
Missing now are the stories of the numbers of dead, and disposition.. Story Drudge won’t touch.
WMD indeed. A smoking deadly gun, no takers?
It’s good for Iran that Obama is Muslim.
