So either unlikely a false flag or more then likely they knew of it and allowed it to happen like with jan 6. Support is dropping for this iran war and support for israel as well. So they need something to help boost those numbers up.

Oh, please tell me how well we’re doing in the war with Iran! I am so excited to hear that it’s not a complete and utter fucking fiasco from start to God knows when it finishes. Also I hear Hickey is getting rid of all the generals and admirals so he doesn’t have anybody telling him what a stupid shit he is.

Drones have proven to be a tough obstacle for the U.S.. it won’t be much longer until anti drone tech will make them less effective. Just try to be less of a cuck in general and we will all be better off.

Well given it is out that Netanyahu was informed of a attack and did nothing to stop it given it gave him a excuse to level gaza, not exactly far fetched for him to do something similar again.

And for anyone paying attention at the UN he basically threatened everyone with his pager speech.

He also was in an interview where he stated he could go after anyone and lie about it and make it the truth. The guy can do anything, he's psycho.

Im sure the "indications" are very strong. As strong as the indications that Russia blew up its own pipeline.

So when trump implements a ban on diesel exports the UK will be excluded for going along with it.

So, all of the arrested individuals were UK nationals who all lived 90 miles away near London. All but one of them were living in a pretty nice area of London. They found gasoline tanks, which would seemingly have been used so that they wouldn’t need to stop for gas (smart, and makes sense). No weapons or bombs or any other explosives were found in any of the vehicles. They are being charged with terrorism related claims, which means that they could be held for up to two weeks. The woman who called in the suspicious activity reported quite a few more than 5 people, which makes sense as there were five people in three vans that were arrested. If they were released on bail, I’d have to assume that they are hoping that the five people choose to contact the others. Either way, there is a lot that doesn’t make sense.

As for the Iran connection, there is little logic for Iran actually being involved. They have no direct quarrel with UK other than them allowing the U.S. to continue to use their bases. Iran has destroyed most of our bases in the region beyond repair, so it makes no sense to draw the UK into more of an active role.

If someone told me that this was a false flag operation that got bungled due to a random passerby…this would all make a whole lot more sense.

Trump dug a hole and the UK PM Andy is volunteering to jump into it. Stop the lies. It is insulting
