Iran's Largest Navy Ship Sinks In The Gulf Of Oman After Catching Fire

The Gulf of Oman is/was heavily mined by Iran. I wonder if karma is at play here.

Probably so. I was there in 1984 and spent 110 days at sea during the Iran/Iraq war. Four years later my good buddy Jim was the Independent Duty Corpsman on the Samuel B. Roberts when she hit the Iranian mine. I met him in 92 on shore duty and we followed each other up the east coast to Camp Lejeune and then to BUMED. About once a year we would chat about that day, and the days after, and he would debrief the incident and I think have a mental health therapy session during our talk. He stayed home from work every 14 April.
 
Possibilities:

1. Mossad
2. CIA
3. Iranians are idiots

Also of note, there was a massive oil refinery fire the same day.


Coincidence?
