Russian Senator: Iran Tensions are Part of U.S. Plan to Expand Military in Middle East
- Both sides: USA+allies vs Iran+allies are controlled by the Synagogue of Satan. The coming WW3 is the execution of Albert Pikes’ Satanic WW3 plan, centuries in the making. The real war is: Satan and his minions vs the Rest of Humanity. The sheeple are too dumb to understand this. It is about laying the foundation for the coming of the Man of Sin, the Anti-Christ … who will bring about peace in a world wrecked by global wars.

– - Russian Senator: Iran Tensions are Part of U.S. Plan to Expand Military in Middle East

A senior Russian lawmaker has laid out what he said was a U.S. plan to use current tensions with Iran to expand the Pentagon’s presence in the Middle East.
–
Russian Senator Konstantin Kosachev, chairman of the lower house of parliament’s foreign affairs committee, wrote Saturday in a lengthy Facebook post that “it is clear by now who is going to use the escalation of tensions in the Strait of Hormuz and in the Middle East on the whole.”
–
He then attempted to piece together recent events involving unrest in the Persian Gulf, claiming they served as part of a U.S. plot to enhance its own regional defense posture.
–
“The Pentagon just approved the transfer of troops to Saudi Arabia. The U.S. also announced the development of an international operation aimed to ‘defend the navigation in the Middle East in light of recent events in the Persian Gulf region,'” Kosachev wrote. “The goals of the United States are clear.”
–
“First, it is necessary to stir up tensions around Iran, and Tehran actively ‘plays along,’ in particular with the seizure of a British tanker,” Kosachev argued, referencing the Revolutionary Guards’ detainment Friday of the U.K.-flagged Stena Impero after it allegedly defied regulations while sailing through the Strait of Hormuz. “Secondly, the key task is to make Iran a problem not just for Washington, which is fixated on that, but for the widest possible range of states.”
–
The seizure came weeks after the U.K. captured Iran’s own Panamanian-flagged Grace 1 supertanker as it was accused of attempting to transport oil to Syria via Gibraltar, allegedly violating European Union sanctions. Referencing this seizure, Kosachev argued that “Great Britain was the first to join in by starting a ‘war with tankers’ with Tehran.”
–
At the same time, “the recent operation by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) to seize the U.K.-flagged Stena Impero in the Strait of Hormuz has certainly added to the concerns of other important international players—Germany and France have already expressed their concerns,” he wrote. “They are also likely to support the Pentagon’s international maritime Operation Sentinel to ensure the security of key waterways in the Middle East.”
–
After sending a carrier strike group, bomber task force and additional troops to the region, the U.S. announced its intention to establish a global coalition of states in response to what it claims were Iranian threats to commercial traffic in the Persian Gulf and Kosachev said Saturday “how rapidly its development was announced confirms the assumption that the United States was just waiting for a reason to strengthen its military presence in the region.”
