The nice thing about speculation with no facts is that it can’t be proven (or not.) Trump says that he has definitive proof that will come out shortly. In the mean time, his comments in the last few minutes seem to indicate a much larger response than sending over a few cruise missiles. It had the feel that he is about to go to war. God help us all if that is the case. The point of speculation is that they damn sure should be completely comfortable with who did it and be sure of the outcome of a shooting war. This news about the Mueller crap couldn’t have come at a worse time. I pray that the President does not lose control because he is distracted by a BS Witchhunt.
Part of the leaked information from the Revolutionary Guard was that Iran greatly feared its nuclear facilities were going to be attacked by the U.S., using Azerbaijan as a base, so maybe the leaked info was correct. It would not be surprising if they knew more than we do about our own country’s plans, because our president keeps his cards pretty close and has often spoken about how foolish it is to warn your enemy ahead of time.
My own guess is that no one had any clear idea that we were building 20 bases in Syria and had 2,000 troops there and effectively held 30% of the land area until very recently. Then came the twitter and email storm from the mindless pacifists, and Trump had to say he was planning on having us leave “soon.” His advisers and the Saudis and many others warned him off doing such a thing.
