terrorists without a country? Jemen? Iran? Iraq? Israel (with upcoming elections it helps Netanyahu to scare folks)? Here is more: www.nytimes.com/interactive/2019/09/16/world/middleeast/trump-saudi-arabia-oil-attack.htmlWe analyzed the satellite photos that the Trump administration released, comparing them with independent sources when possible, to determine what they show and what they leave unclear: The sophistication of the attack far exceeds that shown in previous attacks by the Houthis, raising the likelihood of direct Iranian involvement. The satellite photos alone are not enough to support American claims that the strikes appeared to have come from the direction of Iran or Iraq. There’s not enough evidence to show what kinds of weapons were used, but the precision of the strikes is consistent with a guided missile.

Jaga It would appear that so many know so little as to muddy up the stream to the fact no one knows any thing. What is positive is Mr. Putin has placed forward an offer to the Saudis of the S-400 missile system for their defense as was earlier for Turkey with the older S-300 system. This system is of the latest design and would provide the Saudis with protection of their assets which has not been the case of the Americans. For it would appear Mr. Trump is using his time to build a case against Iran for what ever reason that is his alone. The fly in the oatmeal though is the Saudis are afraid of what Mr. Trump might do in one of his tirades of temper. www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2019-09-16/putin-says-ready-to-help-saudi-arabia-defend-itself-with-s-400Karl

Karl,
Saudis are not innocent. They are involved in deadly war and attacks into Yemen. Nope, Trump is not the one who try to go to Iran, remember the pressure from Israel and neocons.
