If it was marine mines,... Someone put them there.
I'm sure not biting on the tordedo/submarine story.
If it was a submarine, they would have followed up and sunken the ships, IMHO. And incredibly easy to figure out the nationality of the submarine. The will also easily tell where the mine came from, then again, the usual suspects here will claim otherwise. It was the Israelis don't you know. They would just LOVE the iranians to nuke them.... You *really* need to throw a brick through your TV.

and we're off! I'm sure israel is chomping at the bit for 200 bucks/barrel oil prices... They don't care, it's not like they drive anywhere. Missing the point, the Israeli's know that WE do ......... If you were deliberately being obtuse- disregard (no offense meant)

Report is that one of them was hit above the waterline - not likely a torpedo.

I'm sure we are keep close watch on that area from above and below. The intel groups probably already know whats up. Someone is trying to start some chit, I't would be hard to believe it was Iran. Iran are a$$holes, but not that stupid.

World is a fugged up place.
Won't be long until commercial vessels of any importance will require a full military escort.
Imagine the price tag of that!

We sold Iraq WMD to fight Iran, its a fact...What he did with them who knows.
I worked a project where we sent Chem munitions from USA depots to Argentina, re stenciled them and sent them on to Iraq.

Imagine the price tag of that! Dang, all those container ships from China will need escorts too? Well then, Dollar General and the others are just going to have to rebrand as $2.50 General. Geno

Set by Iran, I would believe, to give them something to change the narrative from the mines and oil tankers.
We may know the time Ben Carson lied, but does anyone know the time Hillary Clinton told the truth?

If you look at the link 3 posts above your's and scroll down, you will see the underwater pics of 4 tankers that received damage from underwater explosions. That, in and of itself, does not mean torpedo or mine. Mines can also be under the water surface.

Maybe if Iran is surreptitiously attacking the tankers, this is the US’s way of saying, “We can play that game, too.” Few weeks ago there was talk of the Iranians putting missiles on merchant vessels. Maybe these were some of those vessels.
