All this is being done while the entire world is now very skeptical of exactly what happened in the Gulf of Oman, and exactly WHO did the deed&#8230;. I for one have the answer and I will present the evidence here&#8230;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">The facts are that the captain of the Japanese tanker, &#8220;Kokuka Courageous&#8221; that endured the brunt of the &#8220;attack&#8221; in the Gulf of Oman last week has stated clearly that it was NOT done by mines at all as the criminals in the US government continue to harp, but that he and others on that very ship witnessed an &#8220;aerial object&#8221; coming towards their vessel and witnessed it make full contact with the hull of the ship&#8230; Here in fact is the link to an article from the Washington Post itself covering this fact:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\"><a style=\"color: #ccffff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/world\/japanese-ship-owner-contradicts-us-account-of-how-tanker-was-attacked\/2019\/06\/14\/7ea347d0-8eba-11e9-b6f4-033356502dce_story.html?utm_term=.d49d5a1c51c7\">https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/world\/japanese-ship-owner-contradicts-us-account-of-how-tanker-was-attacked\/2019\/06\/14\/7ea347d0-8eba-11e9-b6f4-033356502dce_story.html?utm_term=.d49d5a1c51c7<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">OK, WHY is the US government contradicting these eyewitnesses on the ship itself that most definitely saw missiles coming in to strike their vessel?

You only need to look at one state on this planet with the means and the audacity to do these evil deeds and you have your answer&#8230;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Others may be yet to come to this conclusion that the Israelis were definitely behind this attack last week on those tankers, but I am NOT going to hold off and doubt the facts&#8230; The Israelis did this tanker attack last week by using &#8220;popeye&#8221; \u00a0class cruise missiles launched from their submarines, and I am standing behind that conviction&#8230;.
