...twenty-one sailors from the M/T Kokuka Courageous who had abandoned their ship after discovering a probable unexploded limpet mine on their hull...

At 4:10 p.m. local time an IRGC (Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps) Gashti Class patrol boat approached the M/T Kokuka Courageous and was observed and recorded removing the unexploded limpet mine from the M/T Kokuka Courageous (video attached).

The United States has no interest in engaging in a new conflict in the Middle East. However, we will defend our interests.

Someone very very close to me *coughcough* was kicked off FR in ‘04 for suggesting open borders during wartime was an impeachable position for Bush, and that his lie “Americans don’t want to do the jobs illegal immigrants do” was economic suicide.

OMG, hysterical. But we are dealing with real actual neoNazis/neoCons/Deep State occultists IMHO and to call them "dumb" is our bad.

....this limpet story is still too jammed up for me to take a stab at what really went down.
DS is stupid enough to flub up a FF like this?

I have to imagine everything is “testing the waters” for what is tolerated or believed by the hoi polloi deplorables...

how unlikely Iran’s leaders are to commit collective suicide.

Nuclear destruction is part of their 12th imam prophecy.

They are that crazy. The deep state luciferian globalists are that desperate. Not a good combination.

Not that I'm buying the limpit mine "attack" show. Really how brave/stupid/suicidal do ya have to be to retrieve a live magnetic mine?

The testimony that Iraqis removed babies from incubators came from not one source but several nurses, and the daughter of a Kuwaiti official. The claim it didn’t happen came from a single Palestinian doctor interviewed in Lebanon (and quoted in the same California newspaper that’s still sitting on an unflattering Obama video where participants at a dinner reportedly offered toasts to terrorists.) The Palestinian doctor it turns out had fled Kuwait with the fleeing Iraqi invaders but of course the paper never asked him why he, if he was a doctor as he claimed, would flee his hospital and Kuwait at a time his services were most needed. The rag didn’t ask him...because they knew they needed to make him seem credible by omitting that as a collaborator, like many Palestinians were during the occupation, he didn’t want to stick around long enough for liberated Kuwaitis to get their hands on him. Maybe it happened, maybe it didn’t...but the credibility of the ‘discreditor’ was no better than any witness and if anything, worse.

That said, my brother struck up a friendship with a Kuwaiti naval officer who had been tortured by Iraqis using a power drill and saw the wounds personally...it’s obvious the Iraqis were not above brutality. Funny how the paper never got around to interviewing this officer or his men in their haste to try to discredit a Kuwaiti. Nor did it or an other paper do a followup on the fates of 900 or so Kuwaitis who were abducted by Iraq and held for years long after the cease fire … even though the press published thousands of articles about a couple of US soldiers making prisoners wear dog collars.

Just because the Iranians are observed removing the mine, doesn’t necessarily mean they......

Just a brief history lesson will inform the gullible American public that every foreign war which America has found itself in since the Spanish American war has been triggered by a FALSE FLAG....

Anybody else operating anywhere in the Strait? Just asking!
