Alan ,   SA   (09.16.19)
Bolton was accused by POTUS for being aggressive warmonger.... very unfair on Bolton. An honest and good man fired for telling his boss the truth..Now lying Iran has destroyed Saudi production for many months.. Let us see how this ends.
2. Team Obama i.e. the Iranians would be the prudent guess...
Tichy ,   Y2K   (09.16.19)
Obama's stoked. Not only did his team damage Saudi output, it's a win for the global warming crowd. Less hydrocarbon being burned, less economic activity, higher fuel prices, all of it helps to encourage recession and more government intervention to "help us." It's a win-win for Democrats all around.

Shia Iran and the US Democratic party. A match made in heaven. Who knew?

6. HOW DO BUNCH OF SANDAL WEARING IN PICK UP TRUCK HOUTHIS
Iranian Jew ,   LALA LAND   (09.16.19)
Can manage an attack like this unless a much greater power like Iran and VLADI are behind it? Again, it is a win for VLADI since his oil prices are trading higher today and he gets to sell more of his guns to the mullahs. Watch Saudis run to Israel for defense about the drones soon.
7. Saudi Royals are either idiots or complicit.
David ,   Hartford USA   (09.16.19)
The King and his oil minister must be brain-dead morons not to have protected their oil infrastructure with Patriots or even Iron Domes.

I guess the King was too busy counting his money to care about the goose that lays his golden eggs.

Too bad the King didn't have full peaceful recognition of Israel- he might have been able to buy some Iron Dome batteries which would have protected the refineries.

Will the King be removed for gross negligence? Will the oil minister be taken out and shot? Stay tuned for the latest episode of "Idiots in the Oil Patch."

Trump had better sign an executive order prohibiting the sale of any oil products off-shore. American oil for Americans.
8. Fishy, because satellites do not exist to take such a photo.
NYC   (09.16.19)
Then who and what gives us this so called photo. Is it a computer artistic image, is this a USA over-flight. And why would there be a so called terror attack when the USA has so much power in the Gulf.
9. Tail wagging the dog,want to raise the price of oil = terror
NYC   (09.16.19)
10. Maybe nothing happened, just fake to raise prices...
NYC   (09.16.19)
and advance war.
11. We are the drones for believing this BS fakery.
NYC   (09.16.19)
12. SOMEONE QUICKLY DRONE SOME MEDICINE TO FB SHERRY RIGHT AWAY
Iranian Jew ,   LALA LAND   (09.17.19)
The guy is watching too many sci-fi movies these days. He thinks if his lovely mullahs get a hold of Israel and if Jews are dispersed all over the planet, then everything will be just wonderful. As if there was any alternative to creation of Israel. Jews had to get a the control of the land in order to govern it as properly as they can. Israel is nto perfect by all means, but it tries to create lives fro all everyday.
13. Trump is all mouth no action
lal ram ,   Wolverhampton, UK   (09.18.19)
In the last few months Trump spoke bravely against Ayatollahs, now it all appears he was all talk and no action. He has taken the same passive route as Obama and all the others before him, and the rest of the world. The whole world is at the mercy of these evil mullahs, they are holding the world to ransom. Trump it appears has surrendered and bow down to the mullahs.
14. This fakery just took $5 trillion out of your pockets.
NYC   (09.19.19)
And put it into theirs.
