If it was a flying explosive this exonerates Iran?

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

There's footage that the Trump regime claims shows 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? 

Fixed it.

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.

 

What fucking planet would you have to be on to believe that bullshit.

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.

Isn't anybody just a little bit sceptical to take as gospel the word of a country whose National Security Advisor is recorded on video footage attending a conference also attended by an Iranian opposition group and saying that “The declared policy of the United States should be the overthrow of the mullahs’ regime in Tehran...The behavior and the objectives of the regime are not going to change and, therefore, the only solution is to change the regime itself.”

 

That statement makes one even more sceptical about the  strength of the current "evidence" of an inconclusive grainy, black and white video.

Frankly because the US (and the UK) have form in these sorts of things. Which wars did Iran start?
