Diplomacy with a state sponsor of terrorism hasn’t succeeded and will never succeed. When they start blowing up oil tankers, the time for talk is over. Iran has set its own course and it will be death to Iran, not “death to America.”
Iran continues its decades old acts of terrorism.
"Secretary of State Mike Pompeo was right to call the world’s attention Thursday to Iran’s unprovoked attack on oil tankers in the Gulf of Oman earlier in the day. Pompeo said the U.S. holds Iran responsible for this dangerous aggression – a clear warning to the mullahs who rule the Islamic Republic that the U.S. will ensure they face consequences.
It would be irresponsible for the Trump administration to turn a blind eye to what Pompeo called Iran’s “blatant assault.”
Unfortunately, bad behavior by Iran is nothing new. Iran and its proxies have been attacking targets in the Gulf region for a month now. The U.S. has thus far not retaliated, but that time may soon be upon us. Quite understandably, the patience of the Trump administration is quickly running out.
IRAN RESPONSIBLE FOR ‘BLATANT ASSAULT’ ON OIIL TANKERS IN GULF OF OMAN, MIKE POMPEO SAYS
The latest Iranian targets were an airport in Saudi Arabia where 26 people were wounded, along with the two tankers in the Gulf of Oman.
Speaking to reporters to explain how the U.S. knows Iran is responsible for the attacks, Pompeo said: “This assessment is based on intelligence, the weapons used, the level of expertise needed to execute the operation, recent similar Iranian attacks on shipping, and the fact that no proxy group operating in the area has the resources and proficiency to act with such a high degree of sophistication.”
A senior government official advised me that the identification of Iran as the culprit "was just the first step and there would be more to follow."

I chose to believe the US Navy, not Iran, a state sponsor of terrorism.

Righty warmongers are displaying their war boners. This incident was done to ships from Norway and Japan. The Japanese sailors said they were hit by fast moving objects, not mines. They have not asked for war. They do not know who did it.
Bolton and Pompeo say it was Iran. Nobody knows, but the US has no standing in this. It was not our ships and Japan and Norway are not looking for war.
This incident stinks. The Reds want a war for the next election. Do Repubs ever get tired of wars? Eisenhower was anti-war and warned us about the war machinery taking over the country and gutting our finances. Seems those who evaded the draft are most pro-war. They did not live the battlefield horror. It is all video games and money to them.
Problem is the Repubs will have trouble getting other nations on board. They were lied into Iraq . They know Trump is a liar who does not honor treaties and pacts. Why trust the US now.? Bolton and Pompeo say it was Iran. Then show proof as a starter. Then convince risking WW3 will solve something. We are thousands of miles from home with warships on Iran's coast accusing them of pushing war. We are the warmongers.
