The Senate’s most despicable lackey for the Likud Party goes on Fox News to lay the intellectual groundwork for war with Iran.
Sen. Chris Coons (D-Del.) among those who might support military action against Iran if intelligence determines Tehran was indeed behind the weekend attacks on major Saudi oil facilities.
Coons, appearing Monday on Fox & Friends, told host Brian Kilmeade that if intelligence supports claims that Tehran, rather than Yemen’s Houthi rebels, were behind the strikes, “this may well be the thing that calls for military action against Iran.” The Houthis, who are backed by Tehran in Yemen’s civil war, claimed responsibility for the drone attacks, but Coons said it “seems credible” that the rebel group does not employ the advanced weaponry used against the facilities. Of course, the U.S. already believes Iran supplies the Houthis with arms and training, so it is likely Washington will consider Tehran responsible, whether directly or indirectly.
Regardless, this may be the final straw for Coon.
