Iran Cancels Plan to Send “Aid” Ship to Gaza

Good.

The Iranian ship called “Infants of Gaza” had been expected to sail Sunday for Gaza carrying 1,100 tons of relief supplies and 10 pro-Palestinian activists but plans were canceled “due to restrictions imposed by the occupying Zionist regime,” Bighash said.

Iran made the announcement Tuesday prompting Israel to warn its archenemy to drop the plan.

Israel considers Iran a threat because of its suspect nuclear program, its long-range missiles and its support for Lebanese and Gaza militants.

Israeli security officials said the prospect of an Iranian boat headed for Gaza had Israel deeply worried, and that naval commandos were training for the possibility of taking on a vessel with a suicide bomber on board.

  2. There’s another option for dealing with Iranian ships.

    Unrestricted submarine warfare…

  3. No lefty comments = Obama hasn’t told them their position yet (just like immigration).

    My opinion…  Iran sees the light at the end of the tunnel for their nuclear program, and why jeopardize that right now…

  4. In a year, when Iran has nuclear weapons and missiles capable of delivering them thousands of miles away, then they will be the dominant power in the middle east. Once that genie is out of the bottle, no one will be able to put it back in… and we will have Barack Obama, the world’s most ineffectual leader, to thank for it. Oh sorry, and we can thank the dopes who voted for him as well.
