Was checking the President's tweets for something about this:

“A Very Stable Genius!” Thank you.— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 14, 2019

Huh? Did I miss something?

experts are investigating whether the attacks could have been carried out from the north - either by Iran or its Shia allies in Iraq - using cruise missiles rather than drones, the Wall Street Journal reports.

Trump and John Bolton clashed over Iran sanctions before ouster

Trump has said he might meet with Iranian President Hassan Rouhani later this month at the United Nations General Assembly in New York.

The pattern is evident.
Putin ‘kills’ a dissident once in a while right before any move for rapprochement.
Now Iran ‘blows’ stuff in a similar fashion.
Gleiwitz lives on.

Why waste efforts on hijacking tankers when the Iranians can do “an unprecedented attack on the world’s energy supply.”

We will soon learn the damage wasn’t that ‘unprecedented’. 100%. Would worth it for the Saudis in oil price surge alone.

Bolton to Trump - this is the second “I told you so moment in less than a month”.

The Mullahs in Tehran publicly cheered Bolton’s departure from the Trump administration, and in less than a week afterward mount, or coordinate, a drone attack on Saudi Arabia.

Coincidence? I think not. They think Bolton’s departure means they can expect little response from Trump other than words.

In such a volatile region, you would think the 911 co-conspirators would have radar/missile defenses around their oil facilities. hmmmm strange indeed.
