People who want the US to attack Iran, such as Israel.

The same Israel that also wanted the US to invade Iraq, and Syria, and Afghanistan, thus surrounding Iran.

The same Israel that attacked the US's ship, the USS Liberty in a false flag to goad the US in to war.

So I guess I think Israel or one of their war agencies did it. Either that or some other branch of the western military-industrial complex. Who else would want the US to attack Iran so badly?

Why would Iran blow up one random oil tanker? It has no reason to. It got overthrown in 1953, it knows how things can go bad from attacking others in the region. This makes about as much sense as Assad gassing his own people in Syria, as the war is winding down. It doesn't make any sense at all. It's a pretext to justify a war. Who else would want to create that pretext except one who would greatly benefit from the US invading Iran? At the bare minimum one can assume they're part of the western military-industrial-banking complex. Might be Israel, might be the US, and there's a slim chance it might've actually been Iran. Either way, it seems like an attempt to stir up a war (and also maybe jack up oil prices too)

There's also Saudi Arabia, lets not forget them. I think they're in a pissing contest with Iran for regional power

True, good point. Just saw this as well, The Onion from 1 month ago: https://i.redd.it/9o954uiyfb431.jpg
