    Container ship carrying U.S. arms to Syria splits and sinks

    A large fleet container ship named the “Mol Comfort” was carrying weapons from the U.S. to the FSA Rebels in Syria when it suddenly split in half in the Indian Ocean and sank, as it was making its way from Singapore to Jeddah. On board were 4,500 containers loaded with U.S. arms for the Syrian rebels.’

    Don't worry about what you can't change.
    Do the best you can with what you have.
    Be honest, even if it hurts.

    Title is a little misleading. That is not a U.S. ship.

            Okay:

            Title is still misleading and so is the article. Do you have a reputable source that says it was carrying weapons at all?

            Also, the ship didn't sink, and most of the containers were still floating on the separated sections.

            BTW, the crew was predominately russian and filipino....

              Wheres confirmation of the arns shipments? All i see about it is from right wing conspiracy sites.

              What the majority can agree on was it was Singapore bound from Saudi arabia and sunk in the aindian Ocean. Now, I own a globe, but am not a shipping expert.... But syria is on the wrong fucking side of the world. What were they going to do, ship it back over land to syria from Asia?

                  Easy, there. Sourcing is of the least importance according to the Ayatollahs of DFWMustangs. How dare you suggest their theories are anything but the truth?
