I don’t buy it for a second. Overwhelmingly more likely to be a globalist false flag than a real attack.

So, what are we going to do? Let them sink tankers at will?Two things; 1) I don't believe they sank anything. I trust NOTHING our intel agencies tell us. 2) Let's worry about oil tankers after we fix our border and illegal immigration problem.

"The shipping industry views this as an escalation of the situation, and we are just about as close to a conflict without there being an actual armed conflict, so the tensions are very high," he said. That hasn't stopped the shipping industry from sending ships there, has it?

This is big, big trouble with Iran.
We know that the Iranian Guards are the cause and are out of control of the Iranian government.

No more endless wars - the neocons and the corrupt media are lickin’ their chops.
The real war is on the border.

Personally, I like the idea of a combined US/China/Japan lead strike against Iran in retaliation for the damage of six oil tankers. Japan and China both need that oil.
China has been buying oil directly from Iran counter to US Sanctions, but needs lots of oil and should be very conserved that tanker traffic not be mined.
Politically, getting China to squeeze Iran and side with the US would help settle some of the trade war posturing.
Also Japan participating in a military action against a foreign country to protect its own interest, would be an extremely sobering message to both China, North Korea and other Asian countries.
If the US just goes in and bombs Iran back to the stone age and destroys their nuclear capability that will be great, but if Trump can pull off a joint military action as cover for doing that, he might get that Nobel Peace Prize and send a heck of a message to the rest of the world.
Go Trump.

If it was a mine, it was apparently in Iranian waters.
Solution: Stay out of Iranian waters outside the Gulf

Thanks to our IDIOT former president Obama, this is our tax dollars funding attacks on oil tankers, as well as funding terrorist groups such as the Houlithi in Yemen who fire missiles at Saudia Arabia.

Demand proof on HELL of a lot better than anything presented for the Gulf of Tonkin or the ‘babies thrown out of incubators’ stuff.
If the evidence isn’t good enough to convict a single person of second degree manslaughter in a court of law, it sure as hell isn’t good enough to start a war over.

“...the incident brings the region closer to an armed conflict...”
That region’s been in an armed conflict for a thousand years; so what’s new?

So, what are we going to do? Let them sink tankers at will? We? The oil belonged to Taiwan and Japan. Let them deal with it.
The US is energy independent.
This is not our fight. Some other country wants us to do the dirty work of war, on their behalf.

ANYONE could have done this, just to spike the price of oil, which has been plunging near $50 until today. DO NOT feed the war beast by taking this VERY minor incident too seriously.
To: Red Badger
Let Panama and Japan worry about it. It's their stuff that was bombed.
But tell Iran over & over & over that if an American ship gets attacked then Operation Praying Mantis 2.0 will be way worse than the first one.
