Interesting enough and 'Most disturbing about these reports are them stating that the New Star is owned by the J Rui Lucky Shipping Co Ltd. which is a private limited company registered in Hong Kong and has long been known by Russian FSB Analysts to be an International shipping carrier of US Military and CIA cargo to support their Global War on Terror under contract with the American giant services company KBR whose former leader was US Vice President Cheney.' according to other sources available on the net.

..never mind that the article insinuates it's a chinese ship and then says it's 'Sierra Leone' flagged! Covert what?...terror...Cheney...?...what's next, aliens?

Cheney is likely in Crawford passed out in Bush's pool, a shotgun on his belly, in a floating chair, with Heinekin bottles floating all around him, naked....

every time Chenney fortold the repeat of 9-11.'not if but when'
He was treadding where only terrorists had.
every effort at self-cogratulations for having resisted thus far;
the visible fuse begging for a light

Cops go berserk when someone causes them to give chase; that's why Rodney King got the crap beat out of him, he ran. Cops get even more surly when forced to give chase under nasty conditions. The Russian Coast Guardsmen were in a cop role when they had to leave port in a gale to chase this vessel, and they behaved just as cops would.

And by the way, a ship's port of registry has nothing to do with who owns or crews a vessel. Registering a ship in a country which offers advantages for doing so is called a 'flag of convenience', and it's an extremely common practice. Panama, Liberia, and yes, Sierra Leone, are the favorites. I'm not the least surprised that a 'Chinese' ship was registered in Sierra Leone.

Was that brown rice or white rice?Feb 20th, 2009 - 08:57:43

Nothing like gun-boat diplomacy.

There is OBVIOUSLY more to this than is on the surface (no pun intended). Something HAD to have caused the ship to flee with its cargo of 'rice'.

I guess the answer may be resting on the ocean floor now.

Think about the effects of ocean water on a cargo of rice. If the cargo is really rice there will be plenty of very fat fish when the hull explodes under the pressure of the expanding rice and the rice will surely be washed aways and if there is anything other than rice (contraband) it will surely be recovered to prove who is correct in there report.

If the ship was carrying something either very important or very incriminating that should not have been there (as suggested by their supposed CIA carrier role) it is entirely probable that they scuttled the ship. If whatever it is has been buried in thousands of tons of rice, it will take the fish a while to clear the way to finding it - it will be exceedingly difficult for divers to excavate by now fully expanded rice. Needle in haystack stuff! But the evidence will emerge eventually and may well be made public when it does, in order to rebuff claims of 'Russians murder Chinese sailors'.
