I can’t think of anything the Iranians would have to gain by attacking these ships. But there us a lot OTHER countries might have to gain if they manipulate the US into fighting the Iranians.
Don’t be manipulated. Don’t go off half-cocked.
I can almost guarantee it’s not The Iranians. Only simple-minded people think it’s the Iranians. It’s obviously someone who wants us to think it’s them. Let’s see if 1) we are stupid enough to think it’s them or 2) we use it as an excuse and say it’s them anyways.
