Attackdykarnytt


US Navy SEALs ska på nolltid få ett nytt "moderfartyg" i Mellanöstern.

I förra veckan berättade jag genom en extrainsatt artikel i serien MILITÄRT! om att US Navy SEALs snabbt ska få ett nytt stort fartyg med tanke på möjliga skarpa operationer i Mellanöstern. Ett TV-inslag om detta kan du se ovan.

Vad gäller svenska SEAL-motsvarigheter var det ett bra tag sen man kunde läsa i svensk dagspress om den innovativa och svenskutvecklade dykarbåten "the Seal", som väckt internationell uppmärksamhet. Men NyTeknik kan idag berätta en del nytt om projektet. Tyvärr är den nya artikeln inte online (ännu), den förra artikeln finns här och sedan finns även dykarbåtens egen hemsida.

Apropå attackdykare kommer Gunnar Ekberg den 1/3 på Marinmuseum att berätta om sin tid som IB-agent och attackdykare, som hans bok De ska ju ändå dö handlar om. Formellt var Ekberg inte attackdykare men fick dock attackdykarutbildning, först i Sverige och sedan hos Shayetet 13.

Marinmuseum har för övrigt flera andra intressanta föreläsare under våren, som framgår av muséets utmärkta hemsida, kolla kalendern längst ner.

Megabustern eller Bunkerbustern som nämndes i videon är inte någonting som presidenten, Pentagon och USA har dragit ur en hatt.

World Net Daily:

The Iranian government, through a website proxy, has laid out the legal and religious justification for the destruction of Israel and the slaughter of its people. The doctrine includes wiping out Israeli assets and Jewish people worldwide. Calling Israel a danger to Islam, the conservative website Alef, with ties to Iran's supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, said the opportunity must not be lost to remove "this corrupting material. It is a 'jurisprudential justification' to kill all the Jews and annihilate Israel, and in that, the Islamic government of Iran must take the helm."

The article, written by Alireza Forghani, a conservative analyst and a strategy specialist in Khamenei's camp, now is being run on most state-owned conservative sites, including the Revolutionary Guards Fars News Agency, showing that the regime endorses this doctrine.

Because Israel is going to attack Iran's nuclear facilities, Iran is justified in launching a pre-emptive, cataclysmic attack against the Jewish state, the doctrine argues. Osv, osv.

Forts /.../ Iran's Defence Ministry announced this weekend that it test-fired an advanced two-stage, solid-fuel ballistic missile and boasted about successfully putting a new satellite into orbit, reminding the west that its engineers have mastered the technology for intercontinental ballistic missiles even as the Islamic state pushes its nuclear weapons program.

The commander of the Revolutionary Guards, Brig. Gen. Seyyed Mehdi Farahi, stated in August that the safir missile, which is capable of transporting a satellite into space, can easily be launched parallel to the earth's orbit, which will transform it into an intercontinental ballistic missile. Western analysts didn't believe this would happen until 2015. Historically, orbiting a satellite is the criterion for crediting a nation with ICBM capability...

The article then quotes the Quran (Albaghara 2:191-193): "And slay them wherever ye find them, and drive them out of the places whence they drove you out, for persecution [of Muslims] is worse than slaughter [of non-believers] ... and fight them until persecution is no more, and religion is for Allah."
