Yahoo News Canada<\/a> is reporting today that Israel has released pictures and documents from the ship it commandeered last week near the coast of Cyprus.  <\/p>\n

The article pointed out:<\/p>\n

\n

““Hidden among the dozens of other containers on board, and disguised
\nas civilian goods, the ship contained a consignment of 36 shipping
\ncontainers with 500 tones of arms en route via Syria to the Hezbollah
\nterrorist organisation in Lebanon,” the army and foreign ministry said
\nin a statement.<\/i><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n

“”A total of about 9,000 mortar bombs of different types were seized,
\nalong with about 3,000 Katyusha artillery rockets, 3,000 recoilless gun
\nshells, 20,000 grenades and over half a million rounds of small arms
\nammunition,” the statement said.<\/i><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n

“It was accompanied by photos showing the ship’s manifest, containers
\nbearing the logo of the Islamic Republic of Iran Shipping Lines and
\ncargo with Iranian armed forces customs labels.<\/i><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n

“Among the weapons seized were 2,124 Iranian-made 107mm artillery
\nrockets and thousands of AZ111-A2 fuses manufactured only in Iran, the
\nstatement said.”<\/i><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

It is very obvious that Iran, in its quest to be ‘the major player’ in the Middle East, and its quest to destroy Israel in the process, is doing anything it can to create chaos in the region.  It is understood that the weapons were headed to Hezbollah so that another round of fighting between Israel and its neighbors can begin. <\/p>\n

The part of this that is so frustrating to me is that Iran is pulling the strings to create more conflict in the Middle East while they themselves are risking nothing in that conflict.  Although Iran is pulling the strings in Syria, Lebanon, and some of the territories the Israelis have given to the Arabs, there are other countries in the region who are opposed to the path Iran is taking.  Until Iran is dealt with–not only in terms of stopping its nuclear program, but in terms of fomenting unrest in the region–there will not be peace in the Middle East.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
