Pompeo, ex-head of the CIA, just months ago bragged about how the CIA “lied, cheated and stole” under his watch.

Now today, from the same Pompeo (self-admitted liar, cheat and thief):-
"The US has blamed Iran for an early-morning assault on two tankers in the Gulf of Oman, which ended a Japanese mediation effort and raised fears over the safety of vessels passing through the key oil artery to the west.
The US secretary of state, Mike Pompeo, said the US believed blasts on the two tankers were carried out by Iran “based on intelligence, the weapons used, the level of expertise needed to execute the operation”. He also claimed that the attacks, in the Strait of Hormuz had such a high degree of sophistication they could not be carried out by a proxy.
Pompeo offered no evidence for his claim and took no questions after making his allegations. He said that Iran had been responsible for a previous wave of attacks on tankers last month, BUT the official investigation into those attacks did not determine who had been responsible."

As if Iran was the only nation in the area capable of such acts!
Cui bono?
