    Credibility Crisis: No One Believes Pompeo On Iran Attack



    Secretary of State Mike Pompeo's rush to judgement that Iran was behind the apparent attacks on two tanker ships last week has not galvanized world opinion against Iran, as the neocons hoped. Instead, it was met with high skepticism even among Washington's closest allies. Has the neocon practice of massively exaggerating and endlessly issuing threats finally destroyed US credibility on the world stage?

    At the 10:30 mark, McAdams talks about who might have an interest in this tanker incident. He also mentions how quick Ted Cruz and Tom Cotton were to jump on the neoconservative bandwagon and blame Iran.

    They'll probably claim it's due to insufficient funding, and the D&R party will give them a YUUUGE appropriations increase.

    Throw more money at it, and Bomb Iran.... always works.
