How much longer will this farce go on?Trump doesn’t have the courage to launch a ground war, so he can’t force Iran to surrender.When the U.S. and Israel bomb Iran, Iran responds by launching missiles and drones at Israel and other Middle Eastern countries.Then the entire Middle East’s oil export capacity grinds to a halt, and oil prices continue to skyrocket.After a while, President Trump decides to call a TACO—another temporary ceasefire.Iran continues to export oil and build missiles, and then the war resumes once again.This is utterly ridiculous.
>net exporterthis is bad for us, how?
>>538928681Iran war was flavor of the week news months ago nobody cares
>Gas prices...uh....find a way. I'm not worried about this. Prices always stabilize.
>>538928749Because you will be paying a higher price at the pump
>>538928749do you own an oil refinery or a pipeline or at least make money off the market?>nodo you purchase products that are shipped and delivered to your region?>yesdo you put gasoline in your vehicle and drive or commute on gas powered public transit?>yeslife is more expensive when oil prices are high you fucking nigger retard
>>538928681>force Iran to surrenderIt's the desert. You hit every bridge, every power plant, every fuel depot, and anything that looks like it's for storing or transporting water. The problem will sort itself out after that.
They want to crash everything, all markets.
>>538928681Trump should launch strategic nukes on all of Iran's cities. I mean Iran is causing a oil shortage around the world which will lead to mass starvation in the country of our greatest ally Israel and Israel's greatest ally India. Iran is committing a holocaust on Jews and Indians like world has never seen before. They are the new Nazis, and they must be stopped asap. With nukes.
>>538928749Everything went to shit because the retards such as yourself are allowed to breathe. No wonder you elected a jew enslaved pedophile scammer as your leader.
>>538928884>life is more expensivefor you>>538929603>poland seethingwhat a great day
>>538928681Trump sent an official notice to congress yesterdayIt gives him 60 days to take war action before needing approvalWe will be looking at $100 + before the end of the week
>>538928681All orange migger has to do is lie about Iran "calling him begging for a deal" and the price will plummet again, just like all the other times he lied about it
>>538928681Drill baby drill
>>538928681The entire point is to make a on off valve for the economy for investor, it will probably last Trunp'w entire presidency and possibly because ingrained into the US economy permanently as society builds around it. So not only will the strait closure continue being a problem, but US markets will find a way to make it beneficial to keep it as a permanent feature since openly it again, and permanently, will shock the market into collapse.
>>538929890>Today’s AAA>National Average>$3.8590 >Price as of>7/14/26buddy the SPR is almost dry.Once it's gone you'll be blaming anyone but the retard in chief.
>>538929171in order to profit from it
The majority of the naval fleet has been in theatre for an average of 4 monthsThey will be running low on VLS(vertical launch systems), they can only be loaded at dockThe maintenance backlog on the carriers will be huge, the jets will be taking a beating from the launching systemsThe Ford is way past its first scheduled inspection, the systems it uses are the first ofd their kindLincoln is past its date as well
>>538930231Once it's gone we'll close the export pipe we'll be fine(((you))) won't
>>538928681Alberta oil patch wageslave here idgaf
>>538929603Did he get a pig hoof transplant?
>>538928681Trump is an old Boomer. They tend to get stuck in a loop when things don’t go as planned. It could go on for some time.
The targeting of the funeral flight by Saudi backed Yemen faction has escalated the conflictYemen Houthis have now declared the de-escalation period overThey have already targeted a Saudi airport and it remains to be seen if they start going for their export facilities
>chart for antsyes I am adding to my short position
>>538930613We have enough boats we could swap in and out indefinitely, dumb bong. We don't have to just leave them in place. There are enough to continuously swap them for freshly resupplied craft.
>>538931708no you dontStennis is way behind scheduleTruman is due a massive overhaulFord is due its first time in dockRoosevelt is in exercise(most likely candidate)Eisenhower is its workup cycleVinson is way behind on its readiness cycleReagan is awaiting maintenanceWashington is in the pacific as part of the japan agreementNimitz is heading into decomLincoln is in theatre and has broken the record on deployment 210 daysBush is also there and approaching 4 monthsYou need to swap out 3 but only have 1 replacement and its providing coverage on the west coast
>>538932483>Source: my assSure thing, bud. I'm sure you know more than the navy command who almost certainly have somehow blundered into mistiming all their maintenance cycles to be left with two operational carriers.
>>538930006No. Lies give way in time because only truth is eternal.The US is draining its SPR (oil reserves) to prop up the global oil market. Iran is biding time with will-he-won't-he ceasefires and deals to ride out the clock on US oil reserves. We're at ~310million gallons in the SPR; the limit before the walls of the caverns holding the oil collapse is about ~120million. We're drawing down about 2.2million per day.
>>538932653its a fact check any part of that list for yourselfthere are only 3 available docks for the carriers and the backlog is massivethe Navy has been bitching about this for years nowIn fact, just read that the dock on the west coast is out of action so thats only 2 now
>>538928681I'm not sure because I had read what the "oil experts" were saying and we should be having shortages in the U.S. right about now according to them. It turns out the U.S. has a lot more oil reserves than they thought and are flooding the market to keep the price down.
>>538930231Republicans will sell reserves until next elections and then they will blame Democrats for high prices.
>>538928681Remember anons these idiots wanted a one world order and they let you see how bad it is just to have global oil prices.
>>538928681Biden did this
>>538933041If 1 carrier gets hit and needs urgent repairs the US naval carrier fleet will essentially be disabledCrazy really, having that amount of investment deployed and no way to fix them
Iran makes drones a lot faster than we make anything. So eventually we will run out of all sorts of munitions and they won't. Eventually the shooting will stop but the US can probably continue to line up ships in the gulf of Oman and blockade it. Then we will see how long our oil reserves last
>>538934065Been doing some calculations with AI on thisA launch of 1500 drones at the same time would effectively disable the carrier fleetsWont happen because thats nuke timeThe calculations were based on defense missile expenditure, the inability to reload at sea and degraded flight capability due to the amount of launches etcIts also based on Iran launching them all within an hour, I extended the timeframe to days and the number doubled but its still well within stockpile levels, a drop in the bucket really
>>538930794imagine listening to a migger
>>538930231I fully expect Trump to drain the reserve down to the point the caverns collapse on themselves.
>>538935706>anon's future
>>538928681Guys thinks of the jeets, they will die en masse
>>538928681Saudi Arabia and the UAE are building more pipelines. Iraq is switching to a land route through Syria. In a couple years the Gulf States will be able to completely bypass the Strait of Hormuz to ship their oil and Iran won't be able to do anything about. Then we will just bomb the shit out of them until every last IRGC terrorist has been eliminated. There is nothing they will be able to do.Basically after October 7, Israel and the United States had enough and decided to end the Iranian menace once and for all. This is a part of that.
>>538929890Ah, here's the kike that gaslights everyone about gas prices and inflation, right on time.Mossad is wasting money on this shit, blatant lies and gaslighting only makes people hate you that much more than before.
>>538936584>noooooooooooo my demorats told me gas prices were bad>it must be propaganda
>>538936582Building pipelines with what labor? Do you know how little oil you can drive on land vs ferry in a barge?Do you niggers even stop to think about the shit you type?
>>538936775No one told me shit, I can read the prices myself. You are a disingenuous kike shill and a bad one at that.
>>538928749>imports oil
>>538936874America also imports oil products exclusive to the region, including lightweight full synthetic motor oils and other chemicals. These lying kikes are tripping over themselves to attempt to sell the Iran clusterfuck to the people.
>>538936867>live in demorats hell hole>complain about gas price>doesn't understand it's because of high taxes put by demorats>>538936874>doesn't understand what net exporter mean
>>538928681>How much longer will this farce go on?Well if Ukraine-Russia is any indicator at least 5 years
>>538937056if we have so much oil we can just export it. why are we exporting it when american gas prices are way up since 6 months ago? why is the strategic oil reserve not being refilled?
>>538928681.US has Syrian oil, wussy, and is controlling the Gulf. I guess this is also a pro-Far Right psyop telling people to drill oil, and make oil important.Greens defeated, pro-CCP Bloc defeated, and Iran losing. 3 wins for Trump in 1.
>>538928884>do you own an oil refinery or a pipeline or at least make money off the market?Yes, I own pipeline MLPs and upstream royalty trusts.>>538928681For those not quite getting it yet, a large chunk of Iran's online simp brigade are actually leftists with a degenerate gambling streak who stupidly mixed politics with money, and are now deep in the red on their oil speculation, with most of them betting the price would be well-over $100 by now.
>>538937168>why don't we stop benefiting from high pricesbrokie mentality
>>538937202>US has Syrian oil, wussy, and is controlling the Gulf. I guess this is also a pro-Far Right psyop telling people to drill oil, and make oil important.See>>538937207There's an entire reddit where these bucketed crabs congregate and theorycraft reasons for why oil will be $100, $150, or even $200 any day now.For my part, I did add to my oil/gas holdings, only because I assume the US will increase its production to meet any shortfall, but I'm not speculating about price, and these are long-term holdings.
at this point i'm convinced he's trying to warm people up to the idea of nukes being the only way to solve this conflicttens of millions of dead iranians just to save his skin
>>538937248>wewho? do you honestly consider paying more money for diluted gas a benefit?
>>538937667>siphoning the coffers of other nations is bad actuallykys
>>538928749We export sweet crud but pretty much the entire gulf is set up to refine imported sour. As it's better for industry based refining for plastics etc. We also don't have a nationalized energy system and big oil will happily sell off everything to other counties as the price spikes.If everything is ok then why is the Strategic Petroleum Reserve at a level we are near the risk point for the system to go into structurally collapse? Trump has been shucking and jiving his way to manipulating the oil market with big talk of the war being over etc.But it's clearly not and unless something big changes the chickens are all coming home to roost real soon.
>>538928681>US oil prices officially surge above $80/barrelThey were almost double that a couple months ago and never happened.
>>538937967At this point I'm just convinced he's played the whole system somehowBy all metrics we should be in panic mode yet there isn't a faint bit of panic in the mediaIt doesn't make sense. Maybe boomers do always win.
>>538937967>tds ramblingthe weak doubt every day but the strong know we will be the only hegemony once more
>>538938241The prices aren't even at Biden levelsHigh prices under Biden: I sleepLower prices under Trump: Panic
>>538929568Nuke tel aviv instead and you get the same result wihout being evil
>>538938331everyone is papering over the cracks at the momentThis can still be sorted to a certain extent if everything is stable by October but we all know thats not happeningTime we get into November and winter consumption starts kicking in we will start to get reflections of the reality of the situationThe impact that will have on the following spring and food prices, thats it pretty much fucked
>>538937910>siphoning the coffers of everyday americans to give to big oil is good actuallyyou aren't a real american are you?
>>538939522>i can't afford itnot my fault you chose a dead end career
>>538928884we own all that thanks to stock market indexing and 401ks
Thats bahrain and Kuwait being targeted again
>>538936582Pipelines are even more vulnerable lol
