Couldn't the burgers at least attack their own ship to somewhat legitimize a false flag?
I know the victors of WWII are butthurt that Japan is still majority Japanese and do all they can to change it but come on now
Who's going to fall for

PM Abe is in Iran supposedly on behalf of Trump's request, according to political tabloids. I could think of several possibilities from likely to least likely;

Well that's it then, someone is using sub deployed drifting mines.
It's makes no sense for it to be the Iranians as they live there, they have countless methods to set up mines (and wouldn't just do it one at a time, unless it's a rogue faction or something, they have the means to mine the fuck out of the Hormuz straights). Especially when a Jap envoy is in the country and they're trying (largely successfully) to split the US with their allies ("evil Trump" vs "good Obama" rhetoric worked so well, it also worked on west aligned politicians).

sounds like a pretty blatant false flag. Iran has literally nothing to gain from this

How many submarines does Israel have?

CIA tryin' to entrap Iran into blocking Hormuz to skyrocket the price of oil so that shale will be profitable.

Eh, quite a few? Germans are giving them for free to their owners after all.

US give jack shit about profitable shale. trashing iran's economy even more tho….

Shale is already profitable and fucking OPEC in the ass.
