Russia hijacked its own ship?
Remember the Russian cargo ship that went missing off the coast of France?
This article claims that Russian Intelligence hijacked the ship that carried "destabilizing" anti-aircraft weapons bound for Syria and/or Iran. The arms deal was apparently brokered by businessmen and Russian intelligence had to intervene in order to honor agreements with the US and Israel. The faux-hijacking was apparently contrived to avoid embarrassing the Kremlin.
