I've Been Thinking:

On Thursday an Iranian destroyer and supply ship passed through the Suez Canal.

As predicted, those ships are now docked in Syria. A destroyer in that position can shoot at almost any rebel stronghold.

More importantly, those two ships working together have spectacular computer and satellite resources and the ability to listen in on and sabotage communications.

Meanwhile, sources in Egypt and from Syrian rebel groups announced that their communications systems have been disrupted. They said they are no longer able to communicate with one another freely.

According to a report in the newspaper Asharq al Awsat, a daily Arabic paper out of London, an Egyptian security source commented that Syrian army and intelligence is no longer able to totally monitor the communication of the rebels.

Now with the help of the Iranian ships, they can both listen and disrupt the systems of communication.

Disrupting communications is a very important strategy. Syrian powers are not interested in learning about the plans of the opposition. They are interested in disabling the opposition and in weakening them.
