BERMAN: New this morning, a U.S. official tells CNN that a forensic report is being prepared by U.S. investigators to piece together who they say carried out the attack on two Saudi oil fields and, specifically, how it was carried out. This comes as Secretary of State Mike Pompeo is set to arrive in Saudi Arabia to meet with the crown prince about, quote, "a coordinated response." Joining me now is Democratic Senator Tim Kaine of Virginia. He serves on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. Senator, when you hear coordinated response with Saudi Arabia, what do you take away from that?</s>SEN. TIM KAINE (D-VA): Well, when I hear coordinated response or the president and vice president saying we're locked and loaded, I worry that they're going to take military action. And there is absolutely no reason for the U.S. to go to war or engage in military action to protect Saudi oil. Zero. Let the Saudis defend themselves. We sell them weapons. We give them advice. That's one thing. But to be engaged in military action, another war in the Middle East, a war to protect Saudi oil, and a war, based on what I believe is on some, you know, fundamental mistruths that the administration is promoting, is a disaster.</s>BERMAN: What mistruths?</s>KAINE: They're -- they're going around saying the attack was unprovoked. The U.S. is provoking Iran. We were in a diplomatic deal with them that allowed them to sell their oil. We pulled out of the deal, the U.S. pulled out.
