U.S. Threatens AGAIN to Attack Iran, but it sure looks like the Houthis in Yemen attacked oil fields in Saudi Arabia

Here's a round-up of research I did today to get the facts on what happened in the attacks on the Saudi Arabian oil fields. Kind of done with it all today, but later, I may return and work this into a real blog.

How many times has the U.S. threatened to attack Iran in this 21st Century?

Here's an Al Jazeera article, Iran Standoff Timeline Key Events, that shows a timeline of U.S. not only threatening attacks on Iran, but actually carrying out economic attacks, just this year:

The U.S. blames Iran for the attacks on Saudi oil fields. You may want to believe those lies if you follow mainstream media, but you might think again after you read this article. Saudi Arabia has been attacking Yemen for four years, killed huge numbers of Yemenis, and been supported by the U.S. in this war. The Yemenis have claimed responsibility for this attack, that they say was in retaliation for the attacks against their people, and that they will stop as soon as the Saudis stop attacking them. That makes a lot of sense. It makes more sense than Iraq doing it, or Iran doing it, or Israel doing it. I believe that the Yemenis did it.


"August 26, 2019: Houthi rebels claim to have attacked a military target in Riyadh.
According to a spokesman for the rebels, the attack was carried out with an armed drone.
Saudi Arabia denies there was an attack by the Houthis.
September 10, 2019: The coalition forces intercept a drone over Yemen's Saada province, Saudi Press Agency reports.
September 14, 2019: Drone attacks claimed by the Houthis cause fires at two major oil facilities run by Saudi Aramco.
Citing an spokesman for the Ministry of Interior, the official Saudi Press Agency says the blazes at the facilities in Abqaiq - home to the company's largest oil processing plant - and Khurais were under control."
Role of Israel
Wondering what happens to Netanyahu on October 2? He is facing charges of fraud, breach of trust, and bribery. It's a major corruption scandal. Wondering what happens to Trump when his tax returns are subpoened and people might possibly find out that he never filed taxes for those years, or that his company, the Trump Organization (500 businesses he owns) filed taxes, but committed tax fraud, which given his father's tax frauds, is entirely likely. Another major corruption scandal in the process of being discovered.

Article on Global Research from July 2015 on Netanyahu bluffing to get U.S. to attack Iran:


"Long before the attack on Saudi Arabia’s oil facilities that knocked out half of its oil production, the kingdom knew it was vulnerable to assault from armed drones. Houthi rebels in neighbouring Yemen have often used this new type of aerial weapon, alongside missiles, to target Saudi airports, desalination plants and crude facilities in the past 18 months. The rising threat has prompted numerous Saudi agencies — from Saudi Aramco, the state oil company, to air defence, ports and civil aviation authorities — to scout the US and Europe for adequate defence systems, said one defence industry executive. “They’ve been in a panic [over drones] since the new year,” the executive said. “It’s come down from the top — protect the nation. If you tell me [your system] can do it, get it here now.”

Here is a post I made on Facebook in response to the locked and loaded comment from Pence:

Pence says that the U.S. is locked and loaded. I say it's clocked and colluded. False flag. Probably the Israelis bombed the Saudis. After all, Netanyahu is yahoo crazy about using violence, and probably thinks it might help win the election going on right now. I don't know anything, really. I'm only speculating, just like Pence.

My post September 15 on World Peace Now:
The war in Yemen has much to do with what's happening in the Middle East today. There is so much misinformation that it is difficult to sort it out, which is why I think it gets so little attention. Let me tell you my small piece of the puzzle that I know from teaching English in Riyadh. Most Saudis don't work. Yemeni health care professionals staff the hospitals and clinics. Doctors, nurses, x-ray technicians, you name it. Most health care professionals working in Saudi Arabia are from Yemen. So it does not seem far-fetched to me that there might be supporters from Yemen in this war with Saudi Arabia who were able to attack oil facilities from within the country. Considering the dependence Saudi society has on professionals from Yemen, this war has always seemed bizarre to me.
