This was as predictable as the morning sun.
Last week two foreign oil tankers were bombed off the Iranian coast in the Strait of Hormuz.
The US later released evidence they alleged was an Iranian vessel removing an unexploded mine from the Japanese tanker that was bombed during the attack.

Of course, it didn’t take long for Minnesota Democrat Ilhan Omar to blame President Trump for the attack.
Ilhan posted this tweet on Monday.
None of this would be happening if Trump didn't back out of the Iran nuclear deal.
America’s response should be to return to the table and reinstate the Iran nuclear deal.
Increasing tensions and threats of war serve nobody's interests. https://t.co/KGSKGXATPE
