Is Pompeo Pulling a ‘Gulf of Tonkin’ w/ Iran Attack Claim?
- RT America Published on Jun 13, 2019
After a mysterious attack damaged two oil tankers near the Strait of Hormuz on Thursday, US State Secretary Mike Pompeo and a compliant US media were quick to blame Iran for orchestrating it. Rick Sanchez reminds us of similar incidents in US history and how they served as pretexts for US aggression against Spain and Vietnam.
“Iran doesn’t frighten me and I don’t think it should frighten the American people. They don’t have a bomb. They haven’t made a decision to build one. They don’t have the means to deliver one. And the Israelis have 300 atomic bombs! I mean who presents the existential threat to whom?” – Pat Buchanan (7:58 onwards)
