We have all seen the news reports of the militants in the speedboat heading for the destroyer USS COLE, with their load of explosives to sink this ship. Was this all there was to the story?

S.E.I.G. Agent Be 491 is a retired spook (intelligence agent) of the highest level, and he called to tell us that the guys in the speedboat were not the cause of the extreme damage at all. He told us that the information in the spook community is that Speznatz trained frogmen formerly with the KGB and the Ukrainian Navy, came on a pleasure yacht to a point a mile or two from USS COLE and the swimmers went into the water. They went to the destroyer and placed shaped high explosive charges in strategic places on the hull in order to sink the ship right there. As we now know, this ship was a mere hair's breadth from sinking and only the skill of the officers and crew and their hard work kept the ship afloat.

If you don't know, Speznatz is the Russian form of Navy SEALs.
