Craig Murray thinks it ludicrous that Iran would have attacked the tankers -- one Japanese owned; the other, "50% Russian crewed" -- in the Gulf of Oman, and Caitlin Johnstone lists "
Seven Reasons To Be Highly Skeptical Of The Gulf Of Oman Incident." One positive for the reigning neocons in the Trump administration is that arms sales to the Gulf sheikhdoms are
now zipping through the U.S. Senate.
A
problem for the Western and Gulf states blaming Iran is that part of the attack apparently came from the air:
“Our crew said that the ship was attacked by a flying object,” said Yutaka Katada, the president of the operator, Kokuka Sangyo.
The U.S. case against Iran is based on the use of limpet mines. Iran does have drones, but so do the Americans, Saudis, Israelis -- even the jihadists.
