Iran warns Israel over aid ship interception


www.presstv.ir
A senior Iranian commander says if Israel continues intercepting humanitarian aid for Gazans, Iran will adopt an alternative approach.

After an Iranian ship, carrying food and medicine, was stopped 20 miles off the coast of Gaza, Brigadier General Mir-Faisal Baqerzadeh, Head of the Foundation for the Remembrance of the Holy Defense, hit out at Israel for committing a "war crime"

I have to agree with you. Iran should prove itself better than the Israeli scum and pass on the aid to the UN so they could then effectively distribute it to the poor, needy, injured and dying.

Kudos to Iran though, if this is a shipment of medical supplies then it proves to me that at least one nation on this bloody earth has the balls to shove a finger up to these genocidal swine and help their brethren.

Yet at the same time the US is sending weapons to the Israeli's, which in itself is nightmarish in its timing and anybody daring to question Iran over this should really be questioning themselves.

Already we have 1000+ dead, many from the effects of illegal weapons, yet the pro-Israeli crowd will no doubt shoot back at my post by claiming Iran are sabre rattling by daring to bring a ship into these waters.

GET AID TO THE DYING NOW!!!!

Iran should order Hamas to stop the rockets if it wants to stop the deaths. Then peace may be achieved. Then people will be saved.

Mrmonsoon is correct! Aid should be delivered by plane to Egypt. Iran by sending a boat is being provocative. Just like suppltying Hamas in Gaza with weapons and training. Iran is playing a very dangerous game. When Iran gets bitten, please don't bark!

Why should it?
Why can't it be delivered by ship?

The point of by plane was to get the aid to those who need it as fast as possible, not on a slow boat.

I have stated many times in this post that the aid should go through egypt, no matter if it arrives by plane/boat/ or overland route in a truck.

One reasons to go to Gaza directly is to cause more unrest.

The only other reason is to avoid having the aid inspected.

We all know what would be found if it was.

Where do you live? Do you follow the news? Israel are at war with Hamas. Gaza is a war zone. How can you expect Israel to let an Iranian ship dock in Gaza when Iran supplies Hamas with training, weapons and funding? This is like expecting Iran to let an Israeli ship to dock into Iranian controlled waters for its Arab minority. It just aint going to happen lol!

I am in the UK and checking the news, it seems it seems the ship will be going to Egypt.

Israel tells Iran aid ship for Gaza to leave: report

I wished I had checked it sooner as we seem to be having a pointless discussion.

So are all the weapons going to be discovered by the Egyptians?

What seems to be pointless are hollow threats made by Iranian military men. Having your military commanders make comments about your countries strategic intentions to the international press is about as stupid and unprofessional as it gets, in any event.

The Iranians have zero ability to project their power beyond their own borders. With the price of oil falling as it is, their economic warfare option appear to be dwindling as well. They are a small dog, tied to a tree, yapping furiously from across the street. A minor annoyance, but certainly nothing to be concerned about......yet.

I'm also sure that the Iranian ship has zero weapons on board. The Israelis would love nothing more to capture such a ship in their territorial waters, and expose it's deadly cargo to the world media, while simultaneously castigating the Iranian government for supporting international terrorism. The Iranians may be irrational fanatics, but they are not that dumb. They would rather play the role of innocent guy being roughed up by the neighborhood bully.

But this threat from Iran is pretty laughable. What are they going to do against the Israelis that they aren't already doing now?

What I would wager money on is this: a terrorist attack against an Israeli embassy, major business, or some place where Israelis / jews gather on vacation or holiday.....an attack carried out by muslim extremists....funded by the IRGC. I'll bet dollars to doughnuts that one is coming soon...
