A September drone strike against Saudi Arabian oil production facilities remains a big talking point for US officials, despite increasing doubts about US claims Iran was to blame for the incident, which was claimed by the Houthi movement in Yemen.
US Special Representative Brian Hook once again blamed Iran for the attack, calling it “an act of war,” and further blaming the P5+1 nuclear deal for raising the risk of a regional conflict over Iran’s fate.
Virtually the day of the attack, the US blamed Iran, and has continued to do so. UN officials in the past week warned that they still don’t have good evidence that the weapons involved in the Saudi attack were Iranian in origin.
Yemen’s Houthis have been clear they launched the attack, while Iran has denied involvement. The US had previously reconciled this with claims that Iran and the Houthis are interchangeable, but other State Department officials have since admitted they are distinct groups, leaving the allegation on flimsy ground.
They preach to the quire, Trump’s base don’t use the facts to develop their opinions.
The base that Trump listens to is living large in Tel Aviv.
Right, those “fake” Semites!!!
If Congress didn’t vote on its own next raise on time, I’m pretty sure it would be Iran’s fault.
“Special Representative Brian Hook once again blamed the US for instigating the attack and further blaming the US for unilaterally withdrawing from the P5+1 nuclear deal and imposing draconian economy destroying sanctions and raising the risk of a global conflict.”
What the a$$hole Hook should have said.
No, no, no! It’s the Iranians who are responsible for all of the destruction and bloodshed in the Middle East. Get with the program!
Well golly if we decide that merely bombing another countries territory is an act of war, how many acts of war have we committed, with how many countries?
-hook and pomp are fevered zionists who have no credibility.
-reminder that niten yaahoo is attempting to stay in power and out of prison.
I fully agree with you, Taras. Indeed, Hook and Pomp are fevered, manic Zionists who have not an ounce of credibility.
A reminder, folks .. Nutty&Yahoo’s attempting to stay in power and out of prison, but Israel’s AG is just as determined to make the charges of corruption/bribery stick and Nutty&Yahoo be given a lengthy prison sentence.
You mean Hooker & Pimp…!
