Trump says he bombed Iran

But The U.S. isn't dependent on ME Oil.  Unless??
Rigged on Purpose!!  
 

In the US there's an alleged shortage of group III base oils

We'll know whether it's true or not pretty soon, I guess

Wasn't it 6 weeks ago that the fear-mongers were saying we only had 6 weeks of fuel left?

Nah.

It was eight weeks ago it was said we’d be out in six.

Easy to confuse I know.

Why not both?

Seems like the refineries nowhere near Iran is subterfuge to speed along the process.

Beatings will continue until morale improves and stuff.

How is it fear mongering when it's a well known fact that wars and blockades notoriously cause shortages

All throughout history 

But this time is somehow different because Trump ingenuously figured out a way to avoid all that

I don't think that anyone with a passionate opinion is 100% right throughout the conflict.

For instance, last summer we had "obliterated" their whole nuclear program and set them back years from developing a weapon. We prevented a war, that was verbiage from the admin and in this very thread.

Yet we had to go back. And recently we have won the war several times. We could walk away if we wanted to, because we won so hard. Yet there are still talking points coming from the government they may be weeks away, as they have been for my whole life.

So we could say there are fear mongers towards supply shortages, but that strait remains closed or restricted. But we could also say there have been fear mongers talking about nuclear weapons for 30+ years, more than 6 weeks... And nothing is different now.

Sorry, but that is utter nonsense.

Not what I said or think at all.

You were calling for the elimination of an entire country, civilians, protesters, everyone.

Ie, genocide.

Disgusting.

But, you do you.

By the way, my views on Corbyn are well known from my posts on ATS.

I despise the man and everything he stands for.

Carry on regardless..

Genocide? Total nonsense. It's the regime that needs eliminating for the good of humanity. You know that

Dunno about that - there was talk that the US would start feeling the pinch then which is demonstrated by the release of a few hundred million barrels of oil from their emergency stockpiles due to the war.; hits from the lack of/price increase of importing heavy crude for transport will hit in the next few months (costs already have) if the war is ongoing. Companies are currently absorbing huge price increases of manufacture and transport, especially food, but will be a few weeks until they pass them onto consumers.

We were told the war would last a maximum of five weeks at the start of March but it's still ongoing - even if the strait opennied today it would still take sis months to a year for things like life saving medication availability and prices to return to pre-war availability as such things can't be resolved overnight. At the moment we're in the supply chain disruption stage/increased transport and not yet at full impact of closing of the strait.

I managed to get six of my anti-seizure tablets this week after several days hunting for them instead of the usual 120 a month I get and next import into UK isn't due until 26th May but it's worse here than other countries as the gov have failed to stockpile life-saving meds.

LOL, it's just like I don't trust anything Bill Gates has his fingers in either.  It might look good on the surface but you know it's evil at the core.  

But hey, it's just one guy's opinion.  

Can someone explain why the guys contributing big-time to charities are the bad guys, and the misogynistic, racist, paedophile, fraudster, who has just started a "forever war" with Iran to distract everyone from their links to Epstein's crimes, is the saint?

[David64]

Well, I see the Anti American circle jerk is still in full swing. 

Just a little food for thought for those defending the terrorists. 

Really can't wait for your "But but Trump" reply.
