Could the neo-cons and their allies have hit those oil facilities from Iraq

Seem very odd that Bolton leaves because the Con was planning a meeting with the Iranian leader and this happens days before the UN General Assembly.

I'm too old for this crap.

1. I'm wondering if Bibi (Netanyahu) is behind it.

2. You too?

note my use of 'allies' but the reasoning would be the same as the neo-cons.
Is Cheney still in his crypt?

3. I am getting a whiff of the same rat(s)!

More and more collusion.

6. And if it's going to help Bibi

It needs to happen soon. Isn't he running for election in the next week or so?

I wouldn't put it past him to have ordered the attack himself.

4. You mean, like a reverse 9-11?

If so, what comes next? Saudis raise their oil prices and for the sake of the American economy, Trump offers to goes in to look for the people who launched the drones. They pick a fall guy, blow him or them up and Trump claims he won the war in time before the next election?

5. Hmm...

In the realm of speculation, that is one possible scenario.

What I am tuned for is that any kind of conflict we get involved in between now and our next President could offer just what the Trump MisAdministration needs right now, as per what we saw with W. Jr's approval rating was dismal until that whole mess started and we hit Iraq.

So, there does seem to be some incentive here to get something going, no matter what is going on over there. I don't think it would be as short and sweet as you are speculating, though. Plus, well, it is my opinion that the MIC loves to justify, use and increase its expenditures, so there is an itchy trigger finger there.

7. Is that part of the reason the Air Force has been Subsidizing Trump?

8. Well,

It's a Military-Industrial-Complex, so what do they have to do? Who are the stakeholders and what is at stake?

It is a rabbit hole when you look into it, but the general gist of it is really out in the open and the devil is in the details.

9. Eric Prince, and what ever he's calling black water these days..

My money would be Russian cruise missiles.

10. I don't know. Bibi just canceled a campaign rally because his poll numbers show him losing.

He seems to be desperate
