Who Was Behind the Saudi Oil Attack? What the Evidence ShowsView attachment 580183

More lies from the B team.......

Where the strikes originated remains unclear
Administration officials have not publicly said where they believe the attack originated from. They did say that the satellite imagery was consistent with strikes from the north or northwest, which would point to an attack coming from the direction of Iran or Iraq, rather than from Yemen.

But the satellite photographs released on Sunday were not as clear-cut as officials suggested, with some appearing to show damage on the western side of the facilities, not from the direction of Iran or Iraq.

Guys, for people who are more read on the subject how in hell was this facility hit? with such accuracy? If it Yemen this distance is over 600 miles, if Iraq in excess of 300 miles. If Iran over 250 miles. How on earth did Houthis manage to target this place with 600 miles distance. It looks like only Iran could do this?

What was used?? Or was this a inside job??

Russian cruise missiles were used by Iran, just a day after when Saudi crown prince openly said they can finish Iran in 8 hours and that attack is just a retaliation and show off that Iran is a mighty power.

Iranians are pretty suicidal now a days.

Yemen's Houthis threaten to attack United Arab Emirates targets


DUBAI (Reuters) - Yemen’s Houthi group said on Wednesday it had identified dozens of sites in the United Arab Emirates as possible targets, in an attempt to underscore its military clout following a weekend attack it claims to have carried out on Saudi oil facilities.

“To the Emirati regime we say only one operation (of ours) would cost you dearly,” Yahya Saria, the military spokesman for the Iran-aligned movement, said in a televised speech.

“Today and for the first time we announce that we have dozens of targets within our range in the UAE, some are in Abu Dhabi and can be attacked at any time.”

He said the Houthis have new drones, powered by “normal and jet engines” that can reach targets deep in Saudi Arabia.


In Riyadh, Saudi Defense Ministry spokesman Colonel Turki al-Malki said the attack could not have come from Yemen, adding the Houthi movement was “covering up” for Iran.

The UAE is a leading partner in a Saudi-led coalition that intervened in Yemen in March 2015 to restore Hadi’s government after it was toppled by the Houthis in late 2014.

Saria said the attacks were launched from three locations.

Qassef 3 drones were launched from one site, Samad 3 drones from a second and new jet powered drones from a third, he said. He said this jet-powered type will be reveled soon.


“These drones ... carried four precise bombs per strike,” Saria said.

Other drones were also “used to confuse the enemy so the main planes could reach their targets,” he said.

Do you know what would happen if such an attack were to occur

The american government is hesitent to involve themselves in yeman because they fear domestic backlash.
Such an attack from houthis would defenetaly be a great excuse for the americans to involve themselves in yemen
