Do you really believe Iran would attack a Japanese flagged ship while Abe is in Tehran? Do you really think the Iranians would now begin to stir it up now that the US is moving in naval assets to the Persian Gulf?
Does this really make sense to you?
I'm not sure who was in the boat retrieving the unexploded mine but the boat that's pulled up along side of the tanker is definitely a IRGC boat comparing pictures.My gut tells me that Iran has nothing to do with this. Think Trump needs to pump the brakes (yeah I know not his style) in being so certain it is coming from Tehran.
Its definitely a FIAC, but what makes you certain that its definitely a IRGC boat? There are no marking nor are there flags indicating that it is. Just saying that its not out of the realm of possibility that this vessel isn't a IRGC vessel, but is made to resemble one.I'm not sure who was in the boat retrieving the unexploded mine but the boat that's pulled up along side of the tanker is definitely a IRGC boat comparing pictures.

If only you would put your moments of doubt towards other areas in this forum, but you don't, now do you?Not to mention that those boats could be widely used by others than Iran. Also if it were Iran retrieving an unexploded missle/bomb, that doesn't prove they fired/attached it. If a US vessel retrieved it, would that prove we put it there?
Comparing the pictures above. Now the ship owner attacked is saying it wasn't a mine but something flying above the water.Its definitely a FIAC, but what makes you certain that its definitely a IRGC boat?

Regardless if Iran did this or not it isn’t grounds for us to attack them. The tankers were not US flagged nor was the cargo even US bound. It is grounds for us to strengthen protection of international shipping thru the Straight. Put a US destroyer between the tanker under their protection and fire warning shots. If they attack the tanker light their asses up.My gut tells me that Iran has nothing to do with this.
