Houthi's like their "suicide drone" aka Qasef (Striker) aka Ababil-T drones because they can carry a 100-pound around 95 miles into Saudi Arabia. They are also perfect for false flag attacks because they are cheap and use American and Chinese components. aljazeera.com/news/2019/05/h…
I have discussed the use of false flag equipment before because the media loves the "evidence" that links a piece of equipment with a scary sounding target. The trick is to mimic attack patterns and news stories requirements to incite cause for war. educateinspirechange.org/alternative-ne…
The secondary effect of false flag operations is to insert doubt of media reporting and reversion to "secret intelligence" that confirms government authority to protect them but is not revealed to public. Warnings might include charts..Netanyahu loves this stuff.
Lots of spin in covering today's attack by Houthi's on Saudi military facility. The Saudis push a narrative of "civilian targets" and "Iranian supplied weapons". But Saudi attacks against Yemeni civilians using American supplied equipment doesn't resonate. aljazeera.com/news/2019/05/h…
The Houthis chant "Death to America, Death to Israel, Curse the Jews, Victory to Islam" at the end of their PR videos. "Death to America" is also a popular chant in Tehran demonstrations. They say they mean kill Trump and the government, not the people. timesofisrael.com/irans-khamenei…
Two screwed up narratives in which a crazy guy at the end of the road yells at you whenever you drive by to impress his kids but if you get out of your car and beat him up you end up in jail and people think you are a bully. Which we are because of coups, Iraq and Saudi dictator.
The solution with Iran? Not violence. Recognize the oil dependent Arab dictatorships are in trouble and we won't be able to stop their natural devolution. Iran at war and with nothing to lose will speed up this process turning both shia and sunni centers into the next Libya.
Iraq recognizes this and knows the impact of shia/sunni violence along with the rise of proxy groups like ISIS and Hezbollah. Exactly what will happen if we destabilize Iran along with the destruction of Israel. cbsnews.com/video/iraqi-pr…
The wild card:
"Did Mr. Pompeo think President Trump had been “raised for such a time as this, just like Queen Esther, to help save the Jewish people from the Iranian menace?”
“As a Christian, I certainly believe that’s possible,” Mr. Pompeo said. nytimes.com/2019/03/30/us/…
The Iranians recognize this reckless, gut feel, almost biblical approach to foreign policy. The Arabs dictators are exploiting the financial benefits of war. Israel is laying in the weeds playing all sides. Wars are triggered by very unpredictable things. media.giphy.com/media/mxQUQbIj…
And let's take three minutes to actually experience Iran.
