Why Foreign Governments Are Shielding Iran
2019-06-21
[FrontPageMag] Heiko Maas, the German foreign minister who was in Tehran meeting with “Supreme Leader” Ali Khamenei earlier this week, insisted Thursday that the footage of the IRGC crew removing the unexploded mine from the Kokuka Courageous was insufficient.

“The video is not enough,” he said. “We understand what is begin shown, sure, but to make a final assessment, that is not enough for me.”

The European Union similarly refuses to lay the blame on Iran. It released a statement saying, “While we are gathering additional information and evidence and consolidating the elements available, we will refrain from speculations and premature conclusions.”

#10  I didn't mean that the US would PRODUCE a video in the sense of making a Hollywood movie. I meant we could present a a video we had captured of an Iranian boat attacking a tanker.

#9  You'd think the government that faked the Moon Landing and blew up the Twin Towers could come up with a better fake Iranian attack than the one we got now.

#7  Let's face it - the US could produce a video of an Iranian speed boat, with the Iranian battle flag flying, attacking a tanker in international waters, and the Europeans would still not accuse Iran of the attack.

#5  With respect Herb.

They learned their lesson following America into Iraq.forgot the lesson of blitz into Poland and so on. Not doing it again because of appeasement is easier, very French. And very profitable.
