“” “” Posted so the Iran defenders can change their tune from “False Flag” to “it’s not our business”.
Well, in time that can can preserve some dignity.”” “”

In fact if there is proof it is everyone’s business.

Not true. The US rescued all the sailors from one ship, but Iran interred all the sailors on the other ship.

CENTCOM reports that the Iranians got the crew from the Altair:

“At 9:26 a.m. local time the Iranians requested that the motor vessel Hyundai Dubai, which had rescued the sailors from the M/T Altair, to turn the crew over to the Iranian FIACs. The motor vessel Hyundai Dubai complied with the request and transferred the crew of the M/T Altair to the Iranian FIACs.”

>>So by your theory the Saudis planted the limpets, and Iran discovered some were unexploded and went to remove them.

Yeah. Right.


Do you have evidence those were Iranians removing that mine? And why is the owner of the Japanese ship saying that the US is spreading what amounts to fake news? I would trust those folks more than I would trust John Bolton.

The Iranians gain nothing by going to war with us. The Saudis gain everything by having us go to war agains the Iranians.
