An editorial in the official Iranian Fars News today tacitly admits the goal of the Saudi attack this past weekend was to bring down Donald Trump’s 2020 Presidency.
The title of the piece: The Iranian who Overthrew Carter Also Overthrows Trump Here is a translated version of the editorial from Fars News:
Mike Pompeo, the US secretary of state, immediately accused Iran of seizing an attack on Saudi Arabia’s largest oil field, claiming that there was no evidence that the drones were fired from Yemen, Iranian soil had been fired. However, he did not provide any evidence for his allegations, and his remarks were still under investigation.
Also, Col. Turki al-Maliki, spokesman for the Saudi-led coalition, also accused Iran of involvement in the attack, saying preliminary investigations showed the weapons and explosives used in the attack were Iranian-made.
Of course, the Houthis, in response to al-Maliki’s statements, may say that the advanced weapons and equipment used by Saudi forces in their attacks on Yemen is also American-made, but where is the problem?
“The drones that attacked Saudi Arabian oil and gas refineries were Yemeni-made and were fired from Yemeni territory,” said Brigadier General Yahya Fast, Yemen’s military spokesman Ansarullah. The five UAVs were equipped with jet engines and were made with materials that Saudi Arabian radars could not detect and steered control systems in Yemen. “
“We do not lie and have the courage to speak the truth without any hesitation,” said John Fast. “We are planning to announce a major military operation in the future, in which we will control 2 kilometers of Saudi territory and our troops will capture thousands of Saudi troops…
…The attack on Saudi oil facilities, no matter who did it, represents the transition from traditional to cyber warfare or a combination of the two, and may be the precursor to further attacks on other Saudi infrastructure such as water and power stations at a later stage, and Certainly, Trump, who exacerbated the situation by withdrawing from the nuclear deal and imposing severe sanctions on Iran, is responsible for such attacks, and the Iranian who overthrew Jimmy Carter will overthrow Trump in the next election. God knows.
How about Mexico give us that 26 tons of Fentanyl powder they seized that was heading here and we crop dust Iran with it?
I don’t think they understand how it works.
Stevie Wonder can see that....
Her Brains are now obviously below her shoulders and above her waist?
They will be the new heroes of the left.
That's what the former twin towers say...
The Saudis' main problem is lack of competent military personnel (numbers and quality). Weapons - heck, some years they've been the #3 defense spender on the planet.
Maybe they should hire the South Koreans - I'll bet the South Koreans ARE competent and would enjoy the practice.
Anyway, it would be more effective to take out Iran's refineries and refined product import terminals. Storage facilities too. If repaired, hit 'em again.
NO useable fuel, baby...
This leaves Iranian crude on the market and reduces demand for refined products, globally, as Iran chokes. Win-win.
Some people really seem to want to lure President Trump into a war.
Remember North Korea’s little Kim and his missiles and his please, please attack me rhetoric
The we have Venezuela and Afghanistan and now Iran
Iranians don’t deal well with complexity and I am concerned that they may soon have a big accident at Kharg Island
Spike the well in Qom.
Have a few of their F-15's flying top cover for the choppers. All other Fighters on alert to scramble in case the Iranians don't get the point. All patriot batteries on high alert too.
We could provide targeting intel and resupply, but no other involvement.
Dummies. Everyone knows that America being attacked is the best way to rally people to a president’s side.
Or a couple of pork quarters...
Why waste the select bacon?
An intelligent response sees Saudi Arabia retaliate against Brussels
Agree.
How do they admit that, two days after saying they had nothing to do with it?
...because they had ending to do with it
heh
They didn’t think it through (not that they are capable of thinking):
Less Saudi oil = More US fracking = More US GDP
If our enemies hate President Trump and are actively trying to remove him, he is doing it exactly right.
Tulsi Gabbard just stood up for Iran on Fox News. She is a kook!!Or traitor.
Some slack jawed Neanderthal knuckle draggers around here thought she had a nice pair in a bikini...Now she looks like a pear in a bikini.
