The ship was in fact carrying Syrian-made items for consumption in Iran.

Tehran says Tel Aviv spread 'false' claims about seizing a
ship with Iranian ammunition to sway attention away from the
Goldstone report on Israeli war crimes.

"We strongly reject such claims. Israel has made this
accusation to distract the international community's
attention away from the investigating committee's report on
atrocities it committed in Gaza," Iran's UN mission said in
a statement.

On Wednesday, Israel alleged that it had seized a huge cache
of weapons when raiding an Antigua-flagged vessel around 100
nautical miles from its shores.

Tel Aviv said the "hundreds of kilograms of Iranian-made
arms" were destined either for Hezbollah or Syria, a claim
that quickly drew rejections from Iran, Syria and Hezbollah.

Syrian Foreign Minister Walid al-Muallem said that contrary
to Israel's claims, "the ship was not carrying Iranian-made
weaponry for Syria or Lebanon", but was in fact carrying
Syrian-made items for consumption in Iran.

As the UN general assembly was busy reviewing the Goldstone
report, Israel's UN mission submitted a letter to the
Security Council accusing Iran of violating Resolution 1701,
which was issued to stop Tel Aviv's 2006 offensive against
Lebanon.

Iran's responded to the allegation by reminding the Zionist
regime that Tel Aviv has breached "not one but several" UN
Security Council resolutions, including that very same
motion.

A government, of Israel, by Israel, and, for: Israel.
But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light:
for whatsoever doth make manifest is light. The light shineth in darkness;
and the darkness comprehended it not. The light of the body is the eye:
if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light.
But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness.
If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness!
Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead,
and Christ shall give thee light. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
