Fire in the Gulf

WASHINGTON (NYTIMES) - Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said on Thursday (June 13) that intelligence reviewed by US officials showed that Iran was responsible for attacks on two oil tankers in the Gulf of Oman, a critical waterway for the transit of much of the world's petroleum.

Iran's clerical leadership seemed rational, but firing tankers is suicidal. Something is going on.

The holes in the ships look like caused by small mines. Is somebody mining the Gulf? Iran. It may have been a work accident while maintaining the minefield.
