some guy on reddit (oh my god! reddit! :damn:) has some good points:

So the current theory pushed by the US government is that Iran torpedoed two ships from the starboard side of the vessels to raise oil prices.

Points that seem to really call that into question:

  1. One of the ships was Japanese owned and the PM of Japan is in Tehran right now.
  2. The explosions happened on the starboard side of the vessels, which is the side facing away from Iran's coast, given their course.
  3. The explosions were above the water line, which would disqualify a torpedo from the list of potential weapons, and none of the crew have said they saw a missile hit their ships. That sounds to me more like the explosions were from bombs inside the ships, or placed on the outside above the water line.
  4. The reimposed US sanctions all but isolate Iran from the international oil market, meaning the increase in oil prices will barely impact their bottom lines.
  5. Iran sent out the first ships to respond to the SOS call.
As of now, I am not convinced the Iranians did this. The known facts don't support that argument. I think it is more likely someone placed explosives on the ships. Who that was? No clue, could be KSA, UAE or USA but I find the last two to be more unlikely than the first. Could be terrorists but they would have taken credit for it, unless a terrorist group knew the US would blame Iran and thought that would radicalize more people to fight jihad.

War time presidents typically get reelected, if that isn't the primary motivation it's money. Who knows what the Saudis are offering
Don’t forget all the domionists who want world war 3 because they think they’ll be taken to heaven when the world ends even if they end it.
