Putin may be involved as well.

Military action would certainly send oil prices through the roof, which would help Russia’s ailing economy.

That being said, I agree with ThomasLite - given the bungling ineptitude of the comic-opera buffoons we’re talking about, if indeed this is some kind of false flag, a modern-day Gleiwitz Incident, we’ll find out about it soon enough.
