Something doesn't add up here:

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo says the U.S. believes Iran was responsible for attacks that damaged two oil tankers near the Persian Gulf. American forces found an unexploded mine on one of the damaged vessels.

A fireball erupted on the Norwegian-owned MT Front Altair after a suspected torpedo attack caused three explosions, forcing the crew to abandon ship.

Sailors on the Japanese-owned Kokuka Courageous also had to flee after it was hit by another explosion, in a pair of apparent attacks today which have left the Middle East on high alert.

Turns out it was mines . The same kind of mine that Iran used against a UAE vessel .

This one will get interesting. There is definitely the risk of a false flag. But good luck proving that.

Otherwise this is going to be very interesting. Trump likes to bluster, but he finds a way to make a 'deal' before this go violent. Unfortunately, that method never works with muslims. But Trump doesn't 'bluff'. He knows that empty threats take away any respect or fear others have of him.

So, get your popcorn. This is going to get exciting. And not in good ways.

I can't open the article, what was the final destination of the oil?

Anybody want to bet that Iran has some sudden major accidents at some of their oil refineries or on their pipelines? Never poke the bear, unless your want to get mauled.
