The Damietta strike was viewed by many in the West as extending that campaign from Gulf oil into Mediterranean gas. I think the attack at Damietta was an Israeli false flag that was intended to stir tensions between Cairo and Tehran. Yet Egypt’s Minister of Information, in an interview with Al Arabiya, denied the Wall Street Journal’s claim that the Egyptian government considered Iran responsible for the drone attack on two ships in Damietta port. Iran’s Foreign Minister Aragchi issued a statement insisting that it wasn’t Iran and that it was an Israeli false flag operation to try to drag Egypt into an anti Iranian coalition. It is very easy for an organization like Mossad to mount such a drone attack in two days… Guilt by association.
