Italians cop 7 tons of Iranian explosives bound for Syria
Italy has taken time out from its busy schedule of eating, screwing and watching the Silvio Berlusconi comedy hour to commandeer 7 tons of T4 explosives headed from Iran to Syria. The weapons were hidden in shipping containers on a boat docked at the port of Gioia Tauro in Calabria.

Gotcha bitch!
Italian anti-mafia police, who made the seizure, are not sure whether or not the boat was stopped for technical reasons, or because part of the cargo was meant for Italy. As of now, that’s pretty all much anyone knows.
T4 explosives, also known as RDX explosives, are powerful weapons meant for military and industrial use. In the 90s the mafia used these to attack public officials. Now they will be used to embarrass Iran. Iran: If you’re going to send a present, try not to send it through a people whose culture has no understanding of personal bubbles or privacy. Everyone knows that no one gets through Italy without the paisanos copping a feel.
