As if no one else could build or deploy a limit mine. Provoking the US is a way to get massive quantities of Iranian hardware turned into scrap and to further damage their own economy. Someone else is trying to provoke this fight.Well, since Iran is a pawn of Russia, maybe they, with ChiCom support, think they're finally ready to set things off.

Weak torpedoes? Left over WW II duds? Torpedoes made in China? The hole was above the water line, who makes the jumping porpoise torpedo? It stinks, it looks like a waging dog situation.

This was an early headline. It looks like it was actually limpet magnetic mines.

Plausible theory that I would never have believed before finding out they lied to us about Kuwait. I had no idea they were slant drilling into Sadaams oil, they told us Sadaam was the aggressor and Kuwait was a humanitarian disaster in need of rescue.
I do not trust the war mongers Pompeo or Bolton
