Al Hamed vessel visited Tartous monthly with "cement"

Records on a North Korean ship docked in Syria have been altered. Online databases tracking a ship reportedly flying a North Korean flag that docked in Syria have changed their records following a report in The Washington Post linking the alleged Israeli air strike in Syria to a North Korean shipment. The mysterious Al Hamed vessel visited Tartous monthly with "cement". Why is this important to know? As Captain's Quarters puts it,

"...the North Korean ship that purportedly reflagged itself as South Korean to evade Western investigators disappeared from view after the Israeli strike on Syria last week. The Al Hamed delivered what the Syrians classified as "cement" in the days before the strike, and an Israeli tracer says the ship has not been seen since...

...One would suppose that intel agencies for the US and Israel have started scanning the seas for the Al Hamed. If they can find the ship and inspect it, they could determine exactly what it delivered to the Syrians, and the identity of the new owners. It's entirely possible, though, that the ship will never sail into any port again after the Israelis uncovered its mission."

The following is from Dr. Aaron Lerner - IMRA 16 September 2007:

Following up on a report in today's Haaretz that identified the vessel Al Hamed as having visited the Syrian port of Tartous on 3 September, a search for the vessel using the cache option of Google finds that the same vessel also visited that port at the end of June and July also listing "cement" as the commodity it was carrying.
