An evil plan that sounds like something a James Bond villian would come up with ... and then thwarted by pirates? What an amazing tale, if it all checks out.

Oh, don’t worry, Obama will sit down with the Iranians and have a serious talk with them about this, and finally agree it was the Jews’ own fault!

Very scary, and we will probably never know the reality.

The Mossad will know. If this is true, there is no way Iran will survive if that One is elected. Israel will take Iran out to save its people.

If it checks out. Unlikely btw. When the Iranians finally do nuke Israel or the US they’ll do it in a way that they can deny they did it. Since this boat is registered to Iran, it makes the whole story fail.

God even uses pirates to protect his people.

I thought the ship with the tanks and arms for Eritrea was a Ukranian ship and the one with the radioactive sands was the Iranian ship. There have been a lot of confusing reports coming out of the Somalian pirate stories.

It wouldn't surprise me if the Massad did know about the shipment (through an anonymous Chinese contact), and through a different middle contact, had Somali pirates go for such an unprotected anonymous ship.

The Iranian oil goes to the Chinese while the Chinese inform the Israelis and the Israelis sell a honey pot to the Somalis. Until the dirty bomb is secured and rendered harmless, this is almost a “victimless” crime.

But, it should have never happened in the first place.

Actually it was a conspiracy between George Bush, Isreal, and the Pubbies. This was hatched to defeat THE ONE NEXT PRESIDENT!

Horsehockey! They are blantantly threatening Israel with every news conference coming out of Teheran. Why in the world would they care about it being traced to them? The important issue was that it was supposed to be clandestine up to the moment it exploded and then Teheran would be thumping its chest to show they are the leaders of the Islamic world. Funny how the lawless pirates which Teheran is in some was funding their leaders did the deal in. Just perfectly ironic. God is in control if we would just listen and watch a bit closer as a nation.

We should blow it in place. Get rid of the ship and the pirots at the same time.

It isn't clear if only the pirates sickened and died or some of the crew did as well.

What is also curious is if it was indeed a dirty bomb, who was going to detonate it and were the unwary crew to be sacrificed?

Raises almost more questions than it answers, as usual. If China was the origin of the hot sand, I wonder what they were thinking.

If I remember correctly it was last month Iran was frothing at the mouth about Israel’s coming doom and they have been very quiet these last couple of weeks.

Also I have heard about this ship for awhile but its been constantly shuffled to the last page so to speak.

Now that its being more revealed was this the only attempt? I would think Iran would have a dual plan or contingency if one was revealed, and this could also be a clever diversion.

Could there be an identical situation right now elsewhere?

In Britain maybe? There was an alert, was it something real?

And could this happen off of any American seaport city?

I can just imagine something like this detonating in Chesapeake bay, that could quite literally disrupt navel operations at the least not to mention the hysteria and panic, or someplace like Tampa Bay Florida, the winds could blow all that dust into several populated theme parks almost immediately with little or no time for evacuations.

Iran needs to be taught an abrupt massive lesson on surviving in the modern age right now, they threaten the whole planet literally.

On the other hand, there is one thing even Satan cannot control. Human sin. (It pisses him off to no end.

The way the hold was described, if half true, this ship would be so hot that it would have a broken geiger counter miles away sounding like an am radio in a nighttime thunderstorm.

Boat from Iran, clandestine up to the moment it exploded. Listen to what you just said, and remember that the US Navy, not to mention the Israeli Navy know pretty much every ship on the ocean at all times with satellite surveillance. You’re the one making a mistake.

Ultimately, if true, a dirty bomb is a psychological weapon that preys on the public’s irrational fear of radiation.

I have not heard anything of this in the Main Stream Media, so it must not be true.
