Israel was destined to get these missiles anyway at some point, raining down on them from the sky. Smartly they intercepted them first. Who cares what others think as it is better to survive than be popular.

Nor is it surprising to me that you failed to see the forest for the trees. It's the usual ham handed Israeli stunt.
Hamas, Islamic Jihad and Iran are all denying any involvement and all noting the timing of the AIPAC speech.
On Thursday, Mr Zarif rejected the allegations and questioned why they had surfaced just after the conference a pro-Israel US lobby group.

"An Iranian ship carrying arms for Gaza," he wrote on Twitter. "Captured just in time for annual AIPAC anti-Iran campaign. Amazing Coincidence! Or same failed lies."

A spokesman for Hamas, the militant Palestinian Islamist movement that governs Gaza, said they were a "silly joke".

And of course, were fuji et all to be really concerned about civilian deaths they would support Amnesty's call to end all arms sales to Israel, since the vast majority of civilian missile deaths are all due to Israeli hands.

And you never suspect Netanyahu of lying, or the IDF of faking things?
It is well known that Iran supplies missiles to these terrorist groups, they have admitted it in the past. No proof who these were going to, but I am pretty sure that UNRWA didn't order them.

Now Rob, you just have to let the OP know about this little fact. His judgment fails him once again.

Yes, it's Israel being caught in a ham handed stunt again. They are just so obvious. No wonder they are losing the PR war.
Iranians have already admitted to arming terror groups. Hamas already has lots of Iranian missiles.

Iran would not hide a Syrian destination.
Whoops.
Turns out the missiles were probably going to Al Qaeda in Egypt.

Instead, Israel has been trying to cover up for the new Egyptian military dictatorship.
‘Iran arms ship may have been bound for Sinai, not Gaza’
Israel could have obfuscated ship’s real destination to protect Egypt, US official tells Reuters; Jerusalem denies report
http://www.timesofisrael.com/iranian-arms-cache-may-not-have-been-meant-for-gaza-us-official-says/


Whoops.


And lets not forget that Israel has been making nuclear peace much harder for the world with their continued fabrication of material going to the IAEA and their refusal to join the NPT.

I wonder if he is even aware of that. Groggy is so obsessed with claiming Israel is wrong about something that he doesn't realize he just gleefully linked Iran to Al Qaeda.
Oh you poorly educated Zionist windbag. You might want to read before responding - generally it's a good rule. It turns out the rockets are Syrian made, not Iranian.

They were shipped from Iran to the Sinai. The ship sailed from Iran.
