Why is an Iranian "Landing Craft" heading towards the UAE?
Been watching Marinetraffic.com this morning since Judethz posted the thread about it, and I noticed this ship:

Looking at the map of the area and turning off everything other than "unspecified ships", and turning on it's track, you can see it seems to be heading for the UAE. Could be nothing, but it's interesting...

drug shipment,taken out through the ship bottom from underwater by divers...is everyone asleep?
How unfortunate for some rulers when men,women,and children continue to think... Keep repeating the lies loud enough and long enough and just maybe the people will start to believe the lies again and good luck with that...finding your energy open until mars becomes raging aries...

You Dumb or something. Iran trades with all the countries on the opposite side of the Persian gulf.

What so unusual about a ship heading across the gulf. It happens on a daily basis.

Something fishy here for sure, why would they convert a 2010 built "landing craft" to a fishing boat?

Not that I expect a combat mission vessel to leave their AIS transponder on for all of us to see its position...

Because maybe it is? Cattle isn't easy to unload at port and considering it's all desert and beaches, it would be easier with a landing craft.
