Syrian chemicals thriller: No one knows the position of Cape Ray!

... while the hydrolysis process is probably taking place onboard right now!

globinfo freexchange

The Greek government doesn't care about this serious matter concerning the dissolution of the Syrian chemicals in Mediterranean according to the activists who organized a boat mission* to find Cape Ray. Cape Ray is the ship where the hydrolysis process is taking place onboard.** The mission boats sailed off from Chania-Crete to find Cape Ray, but they didn't manage to locate it.

During the press conference, Vangelis Pissias, one of the organizers of the mission, criticized Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Foreign Affairs, Evangelos Venizelos, stating that he doesn't know what is going on in his country and he doesn't speak with the American officials who behave like preponderant [over country's decisions].

The mayor of Sfakia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sfakia), Pavlos Polakis, stated that, according to information from the mission members, hydrolysis is taking place just 75-100 miles from Crete's shores.

The activists referred to the details of the trip and their efforts to locate and approach Cape Ray. However, they didn't manage to locate it finally, due to the bad weather conditions and because the ship changed its location. They claimed that their mission was under surveillance.

According to the activists' website (http://destruction-of-chemical-weapons.blogspot.gr/), a coast guard boat was discreetly following the boats of the mission during the first hours of sailing, while subsequently they were under surveillance by a drone and a helicopter.

There is a suspicious silence about the issue. No one is giving clear explanations and guarantees about the process of hydrolysis which for the first time is conducted onboard in Mediterranean. The absence of environmental organizations is characteristic, while the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) refers to US authorities. Why is there such a secrecy of the location of Cape Ray? Why there are no independent observers onboard to supervise the process?

The only reasonable explanation is that, in reality, there is no absolute guarantee for the safety of the process, and those who are responsible don't want witnesses in a potential accident and subsequent environmental disaster.

How Israel’s Supporters Play Victim to Justify Genocide & Silence Critics

BreakThrough News   As Israel commits a live-streamed genocide in Gaza, Western media and political elites continue to center one narrative: Jewish fear. But what about the actual victims of this genocide—Palestinians? Journalist Nora Barrows-Friedman joins Rania Khalek on Dispatches for a fearless conversation on Zionist indoctrination in the Jewish diaspora, how antisemitism is being weaponized to silence critics of Israel, and how Jewish identity politics has been manipulated to cover for unspeakable crimes.

How the U.S. & Israel Used Rafael Grossi to Hijack the IAEA and Start a War on Iran

Rafael Grossi, Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), allowed the IAEA to be used by the United States and Israel—an undeclared nuclear weapons state in long-term violation of IAEA rules—to manufacture a pretext for war on Iran, despite his agency’s own conclusion that Iran had no nuclear weapons program.   by Medea Benjamin - Nicolas J. S. Davies On June 12th, based on a damning report by Grossi, a slim majority of the IAEA Board of Governors voted to find Iran in non-compliance with its obligations as an IAEA member. Of the 35 countries represented on the Board, only 19 voted for the resolution, while 3 voted against it, 11 abstained and 2 did not vote. The United States contacted eight board member governments on June 10th to persuade them to either vote for the resolution or not to vote. Israeli officials said they saw the U.S. arm-twisting for the IAEA resolution as a significant signal of U.S. support for Israel’s war plans, revealing how much Isra...

The Best-Selling Apps Made By Israeli Spies

A new frontier for the BDS movement Nate Bear   The developers behind hundreds of Android and iPhone apps with billions of downloads are former Israeli spies whose apps are generating significant revenues for Israel’s genocidal war economy. The apps I’ve identified range from innocuous image and video editing apps to casual games, and most users won’t be aware they’re installing Israeli products on their phones. Many of these app developers operate under the radar, their ownership structures are opaque and the identity of their owners isn’t commonly known. The identification of these apps should add another frontier to the boycott, divest, sanctions movement, as it provides a straightforward way for ordinary people to avoid Israeli products that contribute to apartheid, genocide and ethnic cleansing. The proliferation of these apps on Apple’s App Store and the Google Play Store also raises questions over privacy and the harvesting of personal data, given the reputation of Israeli t...
