Well we know now what the Iranians were doing in the Med
The Liberian flagged cargo ship Victoria took on arms in Lattakia Syria at the same time the IRINS Kharg and its escort was there, the Victoria then sailed for Turkey and then headed south for el-Arīsh in the Northern Sinai. The Israeli Navy stopped the ship and searched her. Aboard they found 60mm mortars (rounds packages in July 2009 and C-704 anti-ship missiles (complete with documentation written in Persian). The C-704 is a Chinese designed missile known to be manufactured in Iran; it has a range of 35 km a high subsonic speeds and a warhead of 130 kg.

Once again, the IDF proves it rocks.
I guess it's fortunate that they were destined for Sinai rather than Lebanon.

If the US ever needed to bomb someone in middle east, it's the Iranian regime.

The sad part of good news is that they don't catch them all.
Just like drugs and human trafficking across the US/Mexico border they don't all get caught ... The thrill is after all in the hunt ...
