Trump administration providing ‘false’ information about Gulf of Oman attack, says Japanese tanker owner
https://www.yahoo.com/news/trump-administration-providing-false-information-124247066.html
The owner of the Japanese tanker attacked on Thursday said US reports have provided “false” information about what happened in the Gulf of Oman.
The ship operator said “flying objects” that may have been bullets were the cause of damage to the vessel, rather than mines used by Iranian forces, as the US has suggested.
Yutaka Katada, chief executive of the Japanese company operating the ship called Kokuka Courageous, one of two vessels attacked near the Strait of Hormuz on Thursday, said the damage could not have been caused by mines or torpedos that are shot underwater, since the damage was reportedly above the ship’s waterline.“It seems that something flewImage result for false flag towards them. That created the hole, is the report I’ve received,” Mr Katada said at a press conference in Tokyo on Friday, the
Financial Times reported.

As fake as the moon landing

And the earth is flat!

well a mine can be placed above the waterline, and what bullet penetrates a hull of a tanker and creates a hole like that?
And who where the men in the boat removing the unexploded object off the hull of the tanker?
(Old Spike)
The men are IRGC coast guard. What makes you think they're "removing the unexploded object off the hull of the tanker"?
(Long Spike)
I definitely don't profess to know anything about it. Are people in agreement that it is an Iranian vessel on the side of the tanker? If they aren't involved with mines, what are they doing? Has Iran made a statement on the video? I don't know why Iran wouldn't use an Exocet-type anti-ship missile if they really wanted to blow away a tanker. Maybe even a drone? The holes in the tanker hull look pretty minor when you consider the anti-ship weapons of today.

Because they did, there was an object on the hull after they went to it it was gone, and According to the US intelligence they where Iranian soldiers

The footage starts when the man is obstructing the view, I couldn't see an object myself. It looked like he put something on the deck but it's hard to tell if he was holding anything IMO.
According to the US intelligence
Which intelligence entity made that assessment?
(Old Spike)
In other clear helicopter footage right after the blast you could see an object right in the spot where the supposed coastguard boat is operating.

usualy it is CIA but i don't know for sure.
Maybe you can explain what the coastguard was doing there?

I've not seen helicopter footage. Do you have a link to that?
you could see an object
It's gone from "an unexploded object" to "an object". Why not "a shadow"?
Do you think the US Navy will ever make the full unedited video public?
Have any independent analysts corroberated this claim of seeing an object being removed?
usualy it is CIA
Mike Pompeo claimed it, that is all. He is not part of an intelligence agency & has not named any intelligence agency that has put their name to the claim.
Maybe you can explain what the coastguard was doing there?
No I can't. But that doesn't mean Pompeo is telling the truth. I could guess but that's pointeless.

I'm just waiting to see all of the evidence. If evidence from multiple sources is presented, I would lean towards Iran being guilty. If nothing is presented, I would lean towards it being a false flag attack. I know it's crazy not trusting your government...... but the sheer volume of previous lies is just too much.
(Old Spike)
Yeah there was footage of the object on the news in Belgium i am not going to look for it, but there is helicopter footage
this a more clear video of the removing itself.
Although i must admit that the entire thing looks fishy
(sounds retarded)
I qeustion how they were placed there to begin with. How could a boat get so close without the tanker knowing about it?
