Sloppy, lazy assed David Rhodes on CNN analyst "these are Iranian boats" that were attempting to cover up an attack on one of the oil ships that were damaged near Iran
really!?!?
Who said so?!?!!?
this was very lazy minded and dangerous commentary by David Rhodes on CNN
Other than Trump's administration saying so there's no evidence that the boats and the video released has anything to do with Iran
even if they did have something to do with her and there's no evidence that the boat was attacking the oil tanker in the video if anything they were pulling a mine from the tanker.is
The Trump administration wants to go to war to distract from Red Don declaring the 2020 election null and void

The US Navy didn't know how the ships were attacked, but "Damn the torpedos and full speed ahead!"
