When the US is going to blame Iran for something, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo is going to be at the front of the line. Multiple times in the past week, Pompeo blamed Iran for rocket attacks in Iraq, sometimes by way of proxies, and sometimes directly.
On Friday, Pompeo was almost in a position to do this again, but this time he and President Trump were together at the press conference. Trump interjected, saying “maybe we shouldn’t say yet.” Pompeo promised to “get back” to reporters on that, which almost certainly means blaming Iran as soon as Trump isn’t in earshot.
The facts of the rocket attacks still aren’t clear. 15 rockets hit Camp Taji, killing two US troops, but who fired the rockets? The US has accused Kataib Hezbollah, or simply Iran, but has offered no evidence that it was actually them.
A group calling itself the “Revolutionary League,” about which little is known, has claimed they were the ones behind the rocket strike, and given how many factions have access to the rockets, it’s difficult to say it was definitely one group over the others without proper evidence.
Iran is responsible for me tripping on the steps and spilling my coffee. God they are evil.
There is now a rift between PopPom and Prez. Time to end all sanctions on Iran, it is an evil action and we are now having a small taste of what it is like in Iran. ;(
There it is! The WHOLE world by now should be able to see the monstrous “policies” that the USA holds the rest of the world to while whimpering and crying when FAR LESS things ALLEGEDLY befall “American interests”. Who profits by these rocket attacks and which nation has in the past killed Americans and blamed other nations to get the USA to attack the alleged perpetrator? If you don’t know the answer to that one you are clueless! Proxies anyone? Not “Iranian proxies” but ISRAELI proxies. Besides, who got the USA to attack Iraq in the first place? That’s right, Israel. While all these embattled nations go around pointing fingers and threatening each other, the puppet master sits back above ALL suspicions! The Zionist-controlled USA media makes sure it stays that way!
Maybe; so far its just a game of toss the hot potato that looks suspiciously like a grenade.
Pompeo has yet to fail bigly in public like Bolton spectacularly did, His trick will be to push doomed war policy but have Trump take the fall.
Trump is catching on that he’s being played… High time!
Let’s hope so.
The Revolutionary League perhaps represents the group of the disillusioned former followers of Abu al-Muhandis and Soleimani who were betrayed and now have no place to call home.
I guess Pompass is a bit slow upstairs and doesn’t get that COVID-19 amassing in any country is a threat to ours. Just call him a stupid fuk and move on.
Trump smells an Obama Red Line noose.
Shouldn’t need to be a genius to figure that one out.
Margin call on the U.S. Empire; cash out what you can or be sold out.
Maybe start with the Iraq/Syria holdings.
