Frank McKenzie, former head of US Central Command, said on CBS’s Face the Nation that the United States should consider seizing Iran’s Kharg Island.

The proposed price is around $50 per 1,000 cubic meters, far below Russia’s export rates. #CIA #FBI #SPIDERWEB2 OPERATION SPIDERWEB – 2, That’s what I strongly suspected; now – these are the facts.
