| Iranian Plot On U.S. Possibly Thwarted Due To Israeli Intelligence– Report | ||
| 2019-05-07 | ||
National Security advisor John Bolton publicly warned on Sunday that Iran will face "unrelenting force" if it attempts to harm the US, in an unusual statement. In the same statement the US announced that it would deploy the aircraft carrier USS Lincoln to the region. According to the report, intelligence provided by Israel's Mossad agency was at least part of the reason for the warning and the move to deploy the aircraft carrier. The information was allegedly passed to a U.S. team headed by Bolton two weeks ago by an Israeli delegation led by national security adviser Meir Ben Shabbat. It wasn't clear what Iran's plans would have been, but it might have attempted to hit a US target in the Gulf, or one of its allies in the region such as Soddy Arabia ...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face... or UAE.
He believed Iran had given the green-light to the missiles out of Gazoo by Hamas and allied movement Islamic Jihad ...created after many members of the Egyptian Moslem Brotherhood decided the organization was becoming too moderate. Operations were conducted out of Egypt until 1981 when the group was exiled after the assassination of President Anwar Sadat. They worked out of Gaza until they were exiled to Lebanon in 1987, where they clove tightly to Hezbollah. In 1989 they moved to Damascus, where they remain a subsidiary of Hezbollah... The strikes sought "to tie down Israeli forces and create a crisis to distract the US and Israel from IRGC plans elsewhere," he said, referring to Iran’s elite Revolutionary Guards. | ||

| #5 My suspicion -- to stir up anti-Trump nuts in the US, to weaken him, and set the stage to a new president who will go back to bribing Iran. Valerie Jerret is still alive, after all. |

Posted by: gorb 2019-05-07 01:31 ...Seems to me their only real option would have been to scream as loudly as they could that they didn't do it, nobody saw them do it and we can't prove they did it, and get the Usual Suspects to tut-tut in advance about any possible retaliation. They seem to think that Obama fella is still in charge, or that DJT is so hamstrung by those idiots in the House that he won't be able to do anything about it. They may be wrong. Mike |
