The news of the blast was first reported by...Anon,<br /><br />The news of the blast was first reported by the Iranian authorities. Please see the update to the post. The director of shipping at Iran's Hormuzgan province reported that a fire onboard was caused by a blast. The director of Iran Shipping Organization ruled out any terrorist attack but attributed the blast to inflammable gases and vapors in oil tankers. Iran's Fars and Mehr news agencies ran those stories.<br /><br />There is a tense atmosphere in the region, but that does not mean that reporting of an incident like this is psyop disinformation. In this case, unless the Iranian officials wanted to make up the story for any alternative motives, there was a blast on an oil tanker at the Strait of Hormuz which regardless of its cause made it newsworthy.Nader Uskowihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02808543185109048956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5169130203475264933.post-2993748503424673682010-07-28T14:23:49.556-04:002010-07-28T14:23:49.556-04:00This seems like some sort of psy-ops disinformatio...This seems like some sort of psy-ops disinformation and has been refuted by most global media even. Even the BBC is not running this "news" and Japan has categorically denied any such incidence. I believe we will be hearing a lot more of such "news' in the future as the "sanctions" fail to bite.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
