That's what a former Saudi security agent said on Malcolm Nance's show, a conspiracy theory that is not provable but very believable.
Krasnov has blown up 36 billion dollars worth of bombs and missiles, we are running out of missiles that intercept missiles.
Here is what I suggest that Krasnov should do.
Remember that Lyndsey Graham compared Kharg Island to Iwo Jima? Well there are 5 or 6 other islands in the strait besides Kharg. Our military can parachute in, come via the sea and take over one of the smaller islands most likely with no casualties. We can plant the American flag on that small island, make sure there is video of it, declare victory and then get the hell out of the ME.
That is the very best option for Krasnov.

(8,858 posts)Guessing it's more about him saving his own skin, and like Trump, it doesn't matter who pays with lives and treasure so long as he eventually dies of natural causes, un-convicted in office.
The wild card is Prince Hack 'em up.

(44,728 posts)Qeshim Island is the largest island in the Straits...there are three smaller islands close to Qeshim. Kharg Island is further north...closer to Kuwait.
They would have to take Qeshim, first.
What's your military reasoning?

(32,236 posts)I believe the former KGB agent who says it was his code name.
If Krasnov plans on invading Kharg and Putin asks him for the details, Krasnov will have to comply.
He is a traitor, he is a Russian agent who does not care if American troops are killed.
Even if it was proven that Saudi Arabia and the UAE paid Krasnov to invade Iran his unwashed Magat zombies would still adore him, hell, so would his zombie Congressional Magats.

He. Is. The. Villain. In every room, in every situation.
