Tankers attacked in Gulf of Oman, U.S. Navy says

Source: Washington Post


False Flag?

Two petrochemical tankers in the Gulf of Oman came under suspected attack early Thursday amid soaring tensions between the United States and Iran. Here is what we know:

● The attack, which was high-profile and apparently carried out in broad daylight, marked a serious escalation in a volatile region and one of the world’s most important waterways.

● The timing of the attack was extremely sensitive and appeared aimed at undermining Japan’s efforts to encourage talks between the United States and Iran.

● U.S. military officials have assessed that the attacks were carried out by Iran or forces under its influence, a defense official said.

Mueller Report: Trump's Plan to Incite Supporters

The Mueller Reports imminent release could be a reason behind the controversial remarks from Steve King, the President and his supporters. Could the Trump administration be inciting their loyalists in anticipation of the release of the Mueller probe? Steve King has recently come under fire after calling for a civil war on social media, meanwhile the President has also issued a warning that “it would be very bad” should the President’s supporters “get tough” Are these incitements only coincidentally coming out right now? Or is this a plan from the Trump administration just in case the Mueller report can reign him in?
