Iran(and the rest of the middle east) produces mostly light oil, which America already produces in over-abundance. We only need heavy oil, which we get mostly from Canada. Europe has an energy dependence on the middle east and formerly Russia because they mismanage their own resources. But we rely on Europe to operate well so it’s still our problem because we’re the only ones willing to take responsibility for global stability.

Freeing Iranian oil is more about taking it from China(they get it very cheap because of sanctions) than it is about taking it for ourselves or anyone else though.



Gulf produces mostly medium sour. Asian refiners are mostly configured for medium sour grade that comes from Gulf/Russia. The greater point though is oil prices are set largely based on international markets supply and demand. If a bunch of supply get shut in/destroyed it will for sure impact everyone including the US consumer. In the US we likely wont have shortages like in SE Asia but the price will surely go up (it already has and that's with SPR release and Bessant shorting futures). If this doesn't get resolved by month end, parts of the globe will have shortages, and i'd bet we get 5/gallon before we see under 3 again.

Yes this mission was just to rescue the second pilot
In total they lost 4 aircraft


Oh no, not 4. U.S. military is doomed.

Now do Iran's total losses. 🙄

I just asked ai... "how many bombs usa dropped the last 25 years"... 337000 bombs. thats global stability huh. or the trillions and trillions in inflation money printing.. global stability..man the us gov barely cares for its own people, farmers, food quality, etc... idk what they care for, but that they care for "global stability" isn't that a bit absurd or..


We live in the most stable time in world history, by far, entirely thanks to American supremacy.

Typical righty... "REEEEE YOU SO MAD ABOUT A PILOT BEING SAVED!"

Nope. We are happy our soldiers are saved. We are irritated about the simple fact that he was in danger for an orange felon pedophile's senseless war.

But keep REEEEEEE'ing.

What did you think of Trump's Easter Truth Social rant? Lemme guess, "BIG STRONK LEADER!"

:rofl:

You’re falling for the bait. That 'laundry fire' on the USS Ford was a 30-hour industrial accident, yet the ship is still on mission and just pulled into Greece for a quick reset. If Iran could sink a carrier, they’d have tried by now.
The 'age of drones' is already being met by the Phalanx Block 1B and the Iron Beam laser system Israel just rolled out. We’re literally swatting drones out of the sky with light for the cost of a cup of coffee.
As for the $5.99 gas? Stop whining. It’s a small price to pay to finally deal with a regime that’s been provoking the world since 1979 and just had its leadership neutralized. Our soldiers are over there facing actual missiles while you're complaining about a price hike at the pump. Have some perspective


Falling for it? Trump ADMITS U.S. Aircraft Carrier Bombed 17 Different Ways By Iran! So that Laundry fire was pure propaganda .... Took a little while for the truth get out but the non brainwashed people seen it right away lol.... The sheep follow whatever they are told.. cough cough :rolleyes:
