PHOTO & VIDEO LINK BELOW: As YWN Israel has been reporting, a special Israeli Navy force intercepted and boarded a ship 100 miles off the coast of Israel. The ship, carrying the flag of Antigua, was carrying 500 tons of weapons in civilian disguise. According to the IDF, the amount of weapons found is 10 times larger than the Karin A ship intercepted in January 2002.
The video link below shows the commandos boarding the ship & searching for weapons, and has the IDF unloading the goods in the Port of Ashdod.

If Obama won’t supply the weapons to Israel, the Koreans and the Iranians will end up helping out.

Shomer Psuhyim H’ - does CNN report this? does Goldstone condemn Israel for searching a civilian ship?

This operation and the bombing of the nuclear reactor in Syria were Pilei Playim B”H. With the RBSH’s help, look what these giborim have achieved. All those who deride the State thinking the Zionists have nothing better to do with their time than pick on a mother in Meah Shearim should take note. The sophistication of the reactor operation, the intelligence gathering and breaking into communications channels, knocking out a radar system, pilots who were not fearful to go deep into enemy territory, and executed their mission perfectly speak volumes of how hard the Zionists work to make the EY safe for all of us. Think about how much training all these people needed to do their jobs and all the people who were involved in secondary roles.
In the zchus of the Torah learning in EY, may the State see many more miracles like these.

#4, These are all separate issues. The State of Israel is not a person, it actually consists of many people, where those in charge of security might do a good job and those in charge of justice will not. Then, within security or justice, you can have those who do a good job and those who don’t. The story of the Meah Sheorim woman has taken on a life of its own, and doesn’t tell us anything about Israeli know how in knocking out a nuclear sites. The people who give Israel that capability might very well be sophisticated chareidi Jews.

Agreed to #5. However this interception story does show that Hashem Levado is always watching EY. Which means that as far as Hashem is concerned we are all ONE unit, and you can day that Hashem is constantly weighing the pros and cons of all are Collective Zechusim, also including the political scenarios. Kol Yisroel Aravim Zeh Lzeh.

I cannot agree with you any more. Regardless where one stands with hashkofeh the amount of Torah learned in Eretz Yisroel, is more then in the entire chutz le’oretz combined. There is no question that the number of tzadikim, talmidei chachoim and ovdei Hashem in Eretz Yisroel gives it gevaldiga zechusim, including hopefully the geulah sheleimeh bimheroh beyomeinu omain.

Let the Israelis unpack the explosives and send them off to there intended destination…

The story is really a bluff story. Why did they release the ship today? How could a ship filled with so much weaponry have a crew that didn’t know about it? And how could a ship with that much weaponry not even have a weapon to protect itself? And if it really carried arms, why didn’t they just disable it by bombing from sea or air? The whole story is very fishy…….
