Interesting mystery...

Curiouser and curiouser...

"It looks certainly like a suspect ship," government spokesman Telemachos Hytiris said."

Pretty big understatment, IMO.

Actually, there's a simple solution for this. The Brits have submarines in the Med. Tow the unmanned ship out into the middle of the Med and put a couple of MK48's in to her. Problem solved.

The BBC's Panos Polyzoidis in Greece says the shipment of explosives is so large that it may have been intended for a government rather than an organisation.

Hmmmm...

Somebody pays the bills for this kind of thing. A ship doesn't circle in the Med for 6 weeks without a purpose or funding. If you can't follow the ship, then follow the money.

The COmoros registration is interesting, whatever its significance.

There was an attempted islamic coup there almost a decade ago, and the hijacking in the mid90's of a plane from Ethiopia that crashed near a beach in the Comoros; on it were some CIA operatives. I forget if the hijackers were explicitly identified as jihadis or if the CIA people were the targt. Not too much information ever came out about the whole affair.

Fundy islami influence has been growing on this island fuelled by Saudi money and clerics subverting the island's more easygoing and tolerant islamic ways, similar to islamic coastal communities in India and Indonesia.

Whatever happened to the Iraqi mystery ships?

Sheesh. Cargo to be delivered to non-existant company, Sudan, enough explosives to level a city...still no interest.
