"Secretary of State Mike Pompeo called the strike on Saudi oil facilities “an Iranian attack” that was an “act of war."
Pompeo stopped short of providing any details definitively showing the Iranians launched the attack from Iran.
"We were blessed that there were no Americans killed in this attack but any time you have an act of war of this nature, there’s always risk that that could happen,” he said. “This is an attack of a scale we’ve just not seen before,” he added later.
Pompeo, speaking to reporters off-camera before landing in Jeddah, said: "This was an Iranian attack. It’s not the case that you can subcontract out the devastation of 5% of the world’s global energy supply and think that you can absolve yourself from responsibility. Were it the case that the Houthis’ fraudulent claim was accurate, were that true — it’s not, but were that true, it doesn’t change the fingerprints of the Ayatollah as having put at risk the global energy supply.""

Do you have any thoughts about what should be done about this attack on Saudi oil facilities? It seems that Pompeo is pretty sure that it was Iranian in origin

my concern with that would be that Iran would both step up their terror attacks and also try to engage Israel into all out war.

I am convinced we will deal with them now or we will have to deal with them later. The price they pay must be steep enough to make them not want to do it again
