That entire region is a complete sh*t-show. Too bad we cant just box it off.
I want to know who bought options and futures anticipating this. And whether action was taken swiftly to seize ill gotten profits.
“and that it may have involved cruise missiles rather than drones.”
Then show us the wrecked tailfin or surveillance video of the missile flying in. Cruise missiles are pretty slow. That “may have involved” sounds a lot like Gulf of Tonkin torpedoes, Belgian and Kuwaiti babies, and a Spanish mine may have sunk the Maine. And never forget, the Poles attacked that German radio station causing the nazis to roll over Poland.
Truth is the first casualty in war...
Let the House of Saud fight their own wars, with our equipment and expertise of course...
Time to buy stock in Blackwater.
And detectable by radar.
I'm sure there are a bunch of war-mongering globalists hard at work in Washington right now, trying to figure out how to concoct a story about Iranian soldiers storming the refinery in Saudi Arabia and removing newborn babies from their incubators.
I'm only half kidding.
NEVER TRUST YOUR GOVERNMENT.
Someone has been pushing hard for war with Iran for quite a while now. Not sure who it is, but someone certainly wants it. I’m thinking it’s someone that normally allies with the Right Wing in America, because it was never even mentioned under Obama. Even when they had their Green Revolution and kids were getting cut down in the street. That was an opening to move Iran forward. Someone doesn’t want them moved forward. They want them destroyed.
I’m happy to hear that folks are chucking missiles around in the middle east we have “NO IDEAR” where they came from.

good questions.
same questions were asked after 9-11.
crickets.
Commodity & stock exchanges have the “know your customer rule” which requires a broker dealer to know financial capacity of any customer who is dealing in commodity futures or options markets.
confirmations of every trade must be kept on file at the brokerage for several years that will clearly identify the party & contra party to all transactions.
I guess we’ll see???
Okay all you Democrat Presidential comedians... now explain to the American public how you would keep the economy fueled (literally) in your utopian/climate-protected world where there is no US fracking or off-shore oil harvesting?
Here’s the deal...
There is NO WAY 16-20 cruise missiles (19 distinct points of impact) came across the gulf from Iran undetected.
No way.
That is probably the most surveilled region in the world. Infra red, RADAR and Satellite imagery. From multiple parties.
Somebody has it on “tape” and has not yet released the evidence. And it’s probably us, at minimum.
John Bolton Pushes to Send Your Kids Off to War in Iran
This guy is a deranged nut. A few things noteworthy things to point out about this:
1. Bolton was making this speech in mid-2017 when he was not even working in the U.S. government, and yet he's standing up there making statements about what the U.S. was going to do before 2019.
2. Bolton's window of time for Congress to adopt stricter sanctions closed when the GOP lost control of Congress in 2018.
3. Notice that Bolton says nothing about protecting shipping interests, or ensuring the free flow of oil through the Persian Gulf. His only objective is "regime change" in Iran.
4. He's making this speech before a group of Iranian exiles known as MEK, which translates to the "People's Mojohedin of Iran." The MEK was classified as a terrorist organization by the U.S. government up until 2012, and they had military outposts in IRAQ that were subject to U.S. aerial attacks during the invasion of Iraq in 2003.
WHO WAS PAYING JOHN BOLTON WHEN HE WAS RANTING LIKE THIS ON FOREIGN SOIL IN 2017?
if Iran was responsible, wouldn’t the Israelis have taken notice? Something smells like OBAMA here.
The Squad.............................
This was on an earlier thread which apparently has gone bye-bye:
Looks like it might be from a Quds-1, the bottom one in this Iranian static display.
McManiac is crawling out of his grave to get a chance to bomb Iran.
Whatever was used, and wherever it was launched from, was very accurate, if the sat photo is to be believed.
IIRC, at least four of the gas separator domes have holes punched right dead center. That’s impressive accuracy at a distance.
The Houthis couldn’t do that without assistance. But then again, they have assistance.
