International Iran Moves To Block Oil Route

Epstein files. Where are they?

I thought Trump cared about the children. As do I and hopefully you right? Let's raise more attention toward releasing the files now it's been 6 months of waiting!
- He cares. That's why he promoted peagant shows to a bunch of :eek::eek::eek::eek:s.
 
I’ve seen what happens when too many women get around the same cup. I’m not giving them nuclear codes
He said, after voting for the most erratic and unstable president in our history for the third time
 
It would be irresponsible for Iran to escalate the situation like this. Consequences could be severe.
 
No they won’t. They more dependent on the money from trade that passes through that area than anyone else.
 
Meh, America is nearly self-sufficient in oil, producing more than it consumes and relying minimally on Persian Gulf imports. I'm thinking it would have been even better if we hard 2 terms of Trump so that moron Biden wouldn't have revoked the Keystone XL pipeline which would have meant Iran's little strop would likely have had no effect at all.

lmao this doesn't even make sense. America is not nearly self-sufficient in oil.

Keystone XL pipeline was literally to pipe in even more crude from Canada.
 
Trump remembers 444 Days of Iran shitting on us after they invaded our sovereign territory and imprisoned our citizens. They never paid retribution.

We can't have Iran with 60% Uranium hidden under a mountain while they develop Hyper Sonic Missiles short, medium, and long range ICBM's. The only countries in the world that have 60% Uranium are the nuclear weapon nations, because you can spin it up to 90% weapons grade quickly. The fuel for nuclear plants is way down at 3%-5%. Hiding and stock piling 60%, then having the IAEA straight up say Iran is lying means their motive is clear. The schedule to go from where they are now were to delivering a nuclear missile on target is brief. After their move on our embassy and imprisonment of our people when I was young makes me not trust them at all. Every night on all 3 networks it was the lead story until Reagan took office.

Also Iran funding all the Middle East proxy wars doesn't make them a fan favorite. The reason why we have so many bases in the Middle East... Iran (and oil). Most of the nations that have our bases want them to protect against... Iran... because of oil.

I don't want boots on the ground. I do want the 70% of Iranians that don't want their current religious zealot government to form a new one.

... but it's also about the oil.

Look at this asshole. It's like a Scooby-Doo episode where they pull the rubber MAGA masks off and it was the Neocons all along.

<{clintugh}>

That won't stop prices from rising. It's still a global market.
 
Considering it’s literally their only source of money……

Well number one, that's not true, a lot of their trade is over land to their neighbors and number two, please see my last post.

What do they care about international trade when they're currently being bombed for regime change? I think the leadership of Iran may have different priorities at the moment, not making money.
 
This will affect China much more harshly than the US. Makes me think this is was part of the strategy here.

The US has about 7% of its oil pass through the strait of Hormuz while China has 40%.

Oh. So we've NOT been paying less just for fun then? This is simply not true otherwise every time there's an oil story our prices wouldn't go up. You realize we also export, right? We don't just drill oil and then keep it all to ourselves.
