Trump
and his minions probably think that the rest of the world is more stupid than they
are. That is probably true in case of Saudi
royal family but please… The
evidence being offered is a set of images like this one in which the direction
of impact on damaged storage tanks is towards Iran and Iraq.
Since
the direction of the impact is towards Iran/Iraq so it must be either of the
two but most likely Iran. This evidence/propaganda is being propagated by a
newspaper no less than New York Times (https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2019/09/16/world/middleeast/trump-saudi-arabia-oil-attack.html?action=click&module=Top%20Stories&pgtype=Homepage
). The explanation is that the direction and precision of the attack
makes it impossible for Houthis of Yemen to have done it. Interestingly the
same American intelligence, which does not believe that Houthi forces are sophisticated
enough to coordinate such a complex attack, convinced the world 18 year ago,
that Taliban/Al-Qaida were sophisticated enough to launch a much more sophisticated
attack against America from more than 10,000 miles away.
The
fact of the matter is that one country which has the means and the motive to
launch this attack is Israel. They know the inside out of Patriot missile defense
system. For them to knockout or make it offline is a piece of cake.
Regarding
motivation, as I mentioned in my previous article (http://nadeemchaudhry.blogspot.com/2018/11/the-unholy-trinity-trump-netanyahu.html
) Israel wants this war. The recent deal between Iran and China (http://www.globalconstructionreview.com/news/china-de5velop-arctic-silk-road/
) in which China will probably deploy 5,000 Chinese soldiers in
Iran is closing the window for Israel. If that happens than Israel will not be
able to attack Iran. For Netanyahu time
is running out fast. In order to get his war, he has to convince Saudis that
Iran attacked them. What better way is there to do that then to burn
their oil facilities and reduce their revenue by half?
