    I don’t think we should be very concerned. The biggest thing they could do to derail the world is block the Strait of Hormuz.

    Otherwise between all the world superpowers, It wouldn’t be super outrageous so say the world could pony up for another 3 million bbls or production within a few months. Russian, USA would be the two big boys to get that oil out there.

    Shale would be insanity with rigs and work.
    "The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents... some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the light into the peace and safety of a new Dark Age."

    Really good expose on this dude:
    https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2...adow-commander

    No doubt he is an enemy to the West and is probably better dead than alive, but at what expense? I’m hoping Lebanon doesn’t get sucked too deep into this cuz of fucking Hezbollah.

    A president during war time has never been impeached (oops too late) or removed - there's your reason.

    Also, we knew Trump would do this because he always does EXACTLY what he accuses others of doing, almost without fail - and look what I found in 2 seconds lol - 5 accusations:

    why do you refer to Trump as turnip man? I don't think i've ever seen anyone call him that besides you, so just wondering where it came from.
    haha, its something I made up - no rhyme or reason. I'm not a huge 'fan' of trump, but I like him more than the previous presidents - even though hes bombastic and full of hyperbole.

    Turnips also match his skin tone, and turnip roughly sounds close to trump, which is to my knowledge why some people call him that.

    It's obvious. I was thinking this would happen sooner so our recession would be over quicker.

    I found another word-for-word quote from trump he made on national TV regarding Obama:

    "Our President will start a war with Iran because he has absolutely no ability to negotiate. He's weak and he's ineffective. We have a real problem in the White House. So I believe he will attack Iran sometime prior to the election because he thinks that's the only way he can get elected. Isn't that pathetic?"

    LOL

    I'm not 100% on the build up over the last 2 years, but it seems like Iran has contributed significantly to this escalation. Or is Trump pushing for a war?

    I dont follow what goes on in mainstream media so I went to the bastion of (liberal) intelligence that is wiki, to find out what has been going in the gulf area.

    Basically, the Iranians have been (indirectly or directly) attacking ships and American assets since May of 2019. Low level conflict, from mostly Iranian assets towards the Americans.

    Now, the ENTIRE backstory is much longer (decades long) and implicates the Saudis and the Americans in many areas.

    But no, I dont see a serious war happening. The Americans are finally showing a little pushback.

    If one is trying to get a decades-long sense of whats happening in the ME - the PetroDollar hypothesis is the one to consider:
