Neo-Caligula pulls a sneaky Eddie Haskell as Israel wrecks Iran’s big gas field South Pars in the Persian Gulf. Caligula goes on Truth Social to scold Israel for their action and warns Iran not to retaliate. Predictably Iran escalates with attacks on oil infrastructure. Is Qatar finally asking with friends like this who needs enemies.
Now we learn Neo-Caligula was in on it from the get go.
The US goes for massive escalation with the attack on the world’s largest gas field, and then suggests to end such attacks. This tactic will not work. If Iran permits the US to decide when to escalate and de-escalate, its deterrence collapses and it will also lose the war. The… pic.twitter.com/bqAe4dlKBb

Elsewhere the culpability of Saudi Arabia is glaring. Illogical actions are a sure sign of Zionist infestation.
It is quite remarkable to see that Saudi Arabia gave permission for Israel to fly its fighter jets, along with US refueling aircraft, through its airspace to bomb an Iranian gas field it shares with Qatar……

Pepe Escobar on the importance of LNG trains for human survival:
What’s crucially at stake in the South Pars tragedy are the LNG trains. A “train” consists of components designed to process, purify and convert natural gas to LNG. They are named “trains” because of the sequential arrangement of the equipment – compressor trains – used in the industrial process to process and liquefy natural gas. The Qatar 2 project in the massive Ras Laffan refinery was coordinated by Chiyoda and Technip, a Japanese-British joint venture. Same with trains 4 and 5, which compose the world’s largest LNG trains. These trains are operated by Qatar Gas, ExxonMobil, Shell and ConocoPhillips. For all practical purposes, these are American and Western-linked installations, thus legitimate targets for Iran. There are just 14 trains in the world – and it’s not hyperbolic to define that Western “civilization” depends on all of them. It takes from 10 to 15 years to replace one train. All of these 14 trains are within reach of Iran’s ballistic and hypersonic missiles. At least one of them was set on fire by the Iranian counter-attack. That’s how extraordinarily serious this all is.
