It's a concern that Corbyn is dragging his feet during such dangerous times. Imagine if he was PM at the time of the Iraq war? While he was farting about asking for evidence, we'd have all been obliterated by Saddam Hussein's supply of Weapons Of Mass Destruction...

Bleeding John Bolton Stumbles Into Capitol Building Claiming That Iran Shot Him

 

 

 

 

WASHINGTON—Bursting through the Congressional chamber doors while moaning and clutching his shoulder, John Bolton reportedly stumbled into the Capitol building Friday claiming that he’d been shot by Iran. “Help, help, I’ve just been attacked by a large Middle Eastern country around 636,000 square miles in size,” said the national security advisor, telling those assembled that he’d just been minding his own business when an aggressive Islamic Republic had thrown him on the ground and shot him with a long-range missile. “Right after Iran shot me, I heard the nation laugh and say ‘Somebody stop me before I go on a homicidal rampage.’ It was acting crazed and irrational, and I could smell enriched uranium coming from one of its urban centers. Please, hurry, if we move quickly, we might still be able to catch it before it’s too late.” Upon further questioning, Bolton admitted that the incident had happened so fast that it was possible he’d been attacked by Venezuela or North Korea.

I think the more pertinent question is why anybody would trust fabricated statements from UK/US governments supporting an escalation in tensions with a nation they’re obviously desperate to go to war with.

Have none of you read the statement?  It’s not warmongering in any way. I’ve posted it above just to be fucking clear.  

 

Theres footage of an Iranian military boat at the side of a tanker.  That tanker blew up.  So it’s either a CIA plot or the Iranians.  Are we agreed they are the 2 options?

Appropriately enough, it blows the "Iranian limpet mines footage" out of the water.

It destroys the "evidence" against Iran.  In the absence of evidence, any reasonable person would say that Iran is exonerated.

Fucking hell - if the US created a false flag, which involved attaching fake limpet mines and then firing a missile instead...wouldn’t they just create a false flag where they pretend Iran fires a missile?

Where’s the evidence?  It’s a man who says he thought it was a missile. That’s not evidence. Fucking hell.

Both Captains clearly communicated they were under attack at the time.

It is almost certain that a branch of the Iranian military - the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps - attacked the two tankers on 13 June. No other state or non-state actor could plausibly have been responsible.

TBF you’re the last person to claim credibility. Your phrenologist was telling me that the other day.

Rico, where is the proof though? If the West gets this wrong the whole area is a fucking powder keg!

A laughable statement, based on your contribution to such topics.

Pedantic point, but I'd say "decades" rather than "centuries".  Prior to the early years of the 20th Century (with the fracturing of the British, French and Ottoman Empires and the increasing importance of oil) it was no better or worse than Europe or anywhere else.

The West has had a hard on for Iran since they had the temerity to get rid of our puppet the altogether quite cunty Shah, who to be fair does indeed look like Phil Leotardo.

I don't think exonerated is the right word, but claims of certainty seem premature.  I definitely don't think it's right to chastise the opposition for disputing said 'certainty' in lieu of evidence.

Thanks for that, time to switch phrenologist I think.
