Ron Paul: Fake News? CNN Claims Iran Tried To Seize UK Tanker

by | Jul 12, 2019

Yesterday CNN was the sole source of an article accusing Iran’s Revolutionary Guard of trying to seize a UK tanker in the Persian Gulf. Though CNN claimed there was video of the attempt, none has surfaced. Iran strongly denies any such attempt. Is this another psy-op to drum up support for a US attack on Iran? Bonus topic: A new Pew Poll shows that US military members do not believe recent wars have been “worth it.” Maybe we should listen to them. On today’s Ron Paul Liberty Report:

Update: What a wonderful person Ron Paul is. (Dan too!) To think that this man could have been the president of the U.S.A. … shoot.
