The price of oil doesn't change when it looks like that right? Bright colours are usually a good thing when selling a product so pidors should be able to sell it for more in fact.

rejecting it just because trump "asked" is kind of dumb. neutral shipping to neutral nations is going to stay paused unless somebody does something to enforce international law here. remember, the shipping channel is on the omani side. iran is causing a global energy crisis using illegal means.
if you are okay not having the oil, sure, stay out of it. but if you need it that is just cutting off your nose to spite an orange retard.
>>530839832
this is bigger than him. that strait used to ship 20 million barrels a day. letting iran close it down whenever they want to and holding the world hostage is not a precedent you want set if you are an oil importer.
say what you want about the 1973 and 1979 oil crisis but those were directed specifically towards the US. this is not.

trump blockaded the strait?
also, why are you listening to him. at this point he has made it clear he is a retard who doesn't know what he is doing.
countries should be doing it on their own initiative completely independent of the US to enforce international law because it is in their interest. not to fight iran, mind you. but to escort tankers through the straits for uninvolved parties.
but trump, somehow, got you all to act against your own interest by blustering with his usual horseshit.

-belittled to no end how they should run their country
-cozies up with orbangutan and two-sides the war at their door step
Etc etc so it’s not that easy for a euro country to cuck to his demands. Something like “open free trade with us again and we’ll help” might be the fairest transactional method with orange

who says anyone has to deal with the US at all? they are already passing resolutions through the UNSC absolving the GCC from blame here meaning that this blockade is illegal af.
an international coalition could simply get authorization from there. would the IRGC be willing to fight the UN for enforcing rights of navigation through omani territory? i don't think so and ultimately something like this is going to be needed even if this shit stopped tomorrow. the shipping companies are too scared to sail through there without an escort.

This would have worked. no members in the UNSC will vote for the US after what Trump have said and done.
It would have work if they didn't bomb Khamenei's whole family, the all girls school and chemically nuked whole Teheran.

Or you can just arrest Trump and Netanyahu( for treasons and warcrime) and pay for their Monetary/material compensation that Iran demanded. This probably the easiest way out and your future Zoomer generations will thank you for that.
The current US debt is 38.8 trillion maybe after paying Iran and taxing the Boomer to hell you'll be at like? 50 trillions?

Anon if it was up to me I won't worry that much as I personally have gone through great lengths to defend both your president and your country as "the best option", go, remove woke, kill the ayatollahs, arrest Maduro, walk out of tree hugger accords, but the issue is, humans, and hence nations, are emotional entities, if it was all about logical choices just threatening Iran would have made them drop the ball, as things stand your line of rational thought is impecable, but, regrettably, a large chunk of the species will rather consider go through hardship than help US (Trump) out after enduring more 14 months of tariffs, mismanagement, threats of violence, insults and russian boyard tier gestures, not just against the rest of the world but your own countrymen.
In fact, all things considered an economic crisis may get enough of your political class to get rid of Trump and his cronies, it won't be the first time someone did that, remember during your Civil War english workers decided to starve rather than support the Confederation.
We don't have anything against you americans as individuals, most people don't, but nothing warrants once this is over Trump won't get any new ideas such as giving a second go to Greenland, cutting Ukraine from whatever is left of US support, forcing them to give up territory, helping ONCE AGAIN russians out of their economic woes, start kidnapping leaders who just happened to not to be in the same book with him, bring for more tariffs because he felt like someone didn't say the right thing or any other idea his dementia ridden brain or idiots like Vance may come up with.

you all have every right to be moralized. their morale is in shambles. so this is what they have left. you have torn them so powerfully that they have nothing left but lying about their allegiance.

his foreign policy is a complete disaster. i'm totally agreed. trump set the US on a fucking journey by burning bridges then spitting on the ashes. it's EXTREMELY APPARENT that the old allies need to figure out their own way forward.
so, how does our agreement on this point resume the oil trade?
oh yeah, it doesn't fucking matter. that was my entire point. sitting and stewing about trump isn't going to fix this energy problem. both you and i know he won't do shit to save anyone but himself.
what kills me is that countries are now actively rejecting plans to open the straits because of trump. this is how he is manipulating the situation. how russia is too.
the sooner somebody finds their balls and pushes the UNSC to authorize naval escorts for energy the sooner this problem is resolved.

that's because the IRGC has shoot to kill orders on our ships. it is walking into a trap they have spent the last 30+ years laying for the USN.
do they want to fight the UN though? particularly all the nations dependent on oil trade out of the gulf. none of them have anything to do with this. they just need the energy. targeting them for that is a pretty negative PR move and going to escalate things beyond what they can afford.
iran's whole play is to try to bait the US into a hormuz fight and we aren't biting. we spent the last 47 years building our oil infrastructure like fuck just so iran couldn't squeeze our balls again like they did in '79. when we became energy independent in 2019 it nullified their whole strategy.
that's what people are failing to understand. the US cavalry isn't going to ride to your rescue on this one. we did in the past because we needed that oil too. now we don't so we won't.

The absolute state of this meme. The US became a net energy exporter in 2019 only when you lump together petroleum products, natural gas, coal, and renewables into one big BTU bucket. Strip that away and look at actual crude oil: the US was STILL a net importer of crude at 2.2 million barrels per day in 2025. The US imported 6.5 million barrels of crude per day in 2024. Every single day. From 90 countries. "Energy independent" btw.
Why? Because over 70% of US refineries are configured for heavy crude, mostly from Canada and Mexico, not the lighter shale oil produced domestically. You can't just swap one for the other. ExxonMobil spent $2 billion over four years retooling ONE refinery to process Permian shale. Your "independence" is an accounting trick where you export light sweet crude and NatGas you can't efficiently use and import the heavy sour crude your refineries actually need.

>we spent 47 years building our oil infrastructure
Yeah, about that treadmill you built. Production from wells that came online in 2023 or earlier dropped by 4.3 million barrels per day within a single year. The industry had to drill over 15,000 new wells in 2024 just to offset that and eke out a tiny net gain. The average shale well loses 74% of its production in the first year. The IEA says if all investment in tight oil stopped, production would crash by over 35% within 12 months. Compare that to conventional Middle Eastern supergiant fields that decline slowly over decades. Your "infrastructure" is a Red Queen's race where you sprint to stay in place. Shale crude production actually peaked in November 2023 and has been sliding roughly 2% since then. 60% of Permian Tier-1 sweet spots are already drilled, with an estimated 3.7 years of premium inventory remaining at current rates. But sure, "built like fuck" lmao.

>iran's whole play is to bait the US into a hormuz fight and we aren't biting

Anon. ANON. It's March 16th. You are posting this two and a half weeks after Operation Epic Fury. Your country killed their Supreme Leader, sank their entire navy, and is currently begging allies at the UN to help escort tankers through the strait. Gas is up 14% in a week. WTI is swinging between $77 and $89 in a single trading session. Your Energy Secretary posted something so bad about the situation they deleted it and the White House denied it. In what possible universe is this "not biting"? You didn't just bite, you deepthroated the whole trap. This is like posting "we'd never invade Iraq" in April 2003.

>we became energy independent so their whole strategy is nullified

Despite record domestic production, US prices are MORE exposed than ever to global fuel interruptions after a decade of building export infrastructure linking domestic supply to overseas markets. That's the part you fundamentally don't understand: oil is priced on a GLOBAL market. Your shale doesn't give you a magic price shield. You built export terminals specifically to sell your oil abroad, which means your domestic price is now pegged to the world price. Congratulations, you played yourself.
Your administration is panicking - frantically exploring Jones Act waivers, export restrictions, price controls, and even Treasury intervention in oil futures markets to deal with the crisis you're saying "isn't biting." The "nullified strategy" is currently costing American consumers 50+ cents per gallon and climbing.

I quite simply want to live in a world in which Russian pride and reciprocal respect for Russian statehood are condemned as crimes against humanity.

>>530850498
>the US cavalry isn't going to ride to your rescue

Do it at your peril. Who's going to pay for all that precious navy and the army then? That's what we've been telling you uneducated retards, you need trade to sustain the armed forces. Who's going to care for the greenback if you can't pay your troops and fund the GI Bill?


>now we don't need that oil so we won't

20 million barrels per day flow through Hormuz - about 20% of global petroleum consumption. 84% of that goes to Asian markets - China, India, Japan, South Korea. Those are the countries that buy American debt, manufacture American consumer goods, and form the backbone of global supply chains. If they get energy-starved, your iPhone costs double, your fertilizer prices spike (a third of global fertilizer transits Hormuz), and the global recession hits Main Street America within weeks. Aluminum prices are at a four-year high, semiconductor-critical helium supply from the Gulf is disrupted, and shipping costs are exploding.
The whole post reads like a guy who passed Econ 101 and skipped the rest. "We make oil so oil problems don't affect us" is the kind of take that gets posted right before reality delivers a $120/barrel correction to your worldview.

>of course we knew that iran would close the straits
>thats why we took no steps to prevent or rectify this situation, and are now begging other countries to send ships to help, as our gas prices are rapidly rising

I live to see the day when ravings of Russians get realized and burgers kneecap their own petrodollar system. Vladimir Vladimirovich, there's a class of people who are more cattle than Russians and you've exploited them beautifully. I KNEEL.

It would be in those countries' interest to see the straits cleared, no? I can understand being angry about Trump starting this war without tipping them off in advance, thus putting them in this situation in the worst possible circumstances, but what are they going to do about it? Trump not getting help humiliates him and the United States, but the countries that will feel economic pain the sharpest will not be the United States. There will be some pain in the US, but it will be secondary to other countries whose energy needs are going to be directly impacted.

For the US, it just means short-term economic chaos and price increases, but it won't cause real hardship for anyone here.

Trump made the mess, but I doubt he can clean it up. Where does that leave Asian countries dependent on oil shipped through the straits?

If China wants to start a war, this is probably the best moment to do it. US is bogged down currently and can't do shit; and managed to alienate NATO allies. Realistically, only Japan could do something about it and that's not much. Still, if China will proceed like US, bombing and then claiming victory - they won't achieve much without landing troops. I hope Taiwan bought some naval drones from Ukraine. With these, China can fucking dream about invading Taiwan.

>>530854311
>US is bogged down
??? Not even half our navy is involved in this and we have zero ground troops engaged. Allies refusing to take part in an ill-advised military adventure in the Middle East just means their resources are still available for defensive aid, which is what our military alliances actually call for. That's why Trump had to ASK for help. He cannot demand it, in this case, because our alliances are crafted around defensive scenarios in order to deter attacks.

Also, Taiwan's safety isn't solely the US's responsibility. Trump's folly isn't their fault, acting like every nation on earth would allow Taiwan to be conquered to somehow spite Trump is just asinine.

>>530854286
>where does that leave Asian countries

Selling you fewer goods at higher prices, holding fewer Treasuries, and reconsidering why they allied with a country that starts wars without telling them first. You're not insulated from Asia's pain. You ARE Asia's pain. And Asia will remember. Especially Japs.

>it won't cause real hardship

America survived Desert Storm because it had a coalition of 35 nations, the Saudis bankrolled it, and the whole world trusted the dollar. It survived Iraq because even with a smaller coalition, the system held. And even THEN, those adventures bled your middle class dry over two decades
- $8 trillion in war costs, wage stagnation, an opioid crisis in veteran communities, infrastructure you never rebuilt.
That was with the carrot. That was with allies who believed the deal was worth keeping. That was with a president who at least pretended to consult before bombing.
Now you've got a president who tariffed his own neighbors, ghosted his European allies, abandoned the country that knows how to shoot down the drones currently killing his troops, started a war without telling the Gulf states who are catching Iranian missiles for it, and is funding Russia to cover the oil shortfall his own war created. There is no carrot. There is only stick. And the stick is hitting everyone, including Americans at the pump who your president says are paying "a very small price."
The previous sandbox adventures had the decency of a protection racket. This one is just arson.

7/13 iskander &s400

1/4 kh-69
402/430 shahed

>>530857823
I think Gregg mentioned in some post (that I’ve not reposted) that EU systems work for some kind of missiles but especially hypersonic (and some other specific model that i can’t remember now) almost exclusively get shot down by patriots.
