Iran's local foes like Israel and Saudi Arabia... I get the feeling they were in on it.

Trump kicked this whole thing off by bombing a pro-Iranian faction in Iraq one day
after he talked to Putin on the phone and about one week after meeting w/Lavrov in
the Oval Office.

Putin is behind the Embassy attack and this attack killing their high ranking officer using trump. What will Putin do next, use his hacking to cyber attack our infrastructure systems so trump can then claim Iran did it, and to drive oil prices sky high for Putin to profit from. Remember trump in deeply in debt to Putin.

change the narrative. The media can't stay on topic even when the evidence is handed right to them, look at everything coming out in just the last week.
