"the International Energy Agency announced Wednesday that it would release 400 million barrels of oil from its 32 member countries’ reserves, about a third of the total emergency reserves"
>when I read something like this, I wonder if this isn't a strategic plan to gut the resources of various nations by those who still retain their own supply.
The rich make money when were at peace. But especially when we are at war. Because they're heavily invested in the military industrial complex, oil extraction, processing and production.

It was 89 degrees here yesterday - and it snowed this afternoon. Speaking of climate change.
Dusting off my crystal ball - this Iran [war, excursion, US/Israeli partnership, vanity war, Epstein obfuscation] is not ending next week. Warum? 1) The Iranians, for some reason, are all hot and bothered about trump and the US/Israeli forces killing off their leadership. Plus, the war does seem to have stopped every day Iranian people from protesting. I could surmise that things are calmer for the Iranians politically at the moment. So why stop now? 2) trump has no fucking idea how to stop this, no exit plan. Further any ten of his minions equal a half a brain, so they ain't coming up with any solutions. And finally, the military told trump not to engage Iran, and now that he has engaged Iran, there is no reason to believe trump will listen to their exit solutions either.
The longer this goes on, the more difficult it's going to be to exit without troops on the ground.
ok so i may be slow but is this why he went after venezuala oil fields? he thought they'd replace the ones from iran when he started his war? but because he is stupid and didn't do the homework he secured oil fields that were no good, then started a war anyway?
In addition to the fact that Venezuela doesn't produce a fraction of the oil needed, the type of oil they produce is very low quality. It needs huge refining capacity that doesn't exist there or in the USA.
Felt just a wisp of despair when I learned that the reason the United States Navy isn't escorting tankers.
Apparently a multi-billion dollar United States naval ship just bristles with sensory systems that can detect, assess and respond to incoming missiles and planes and artillery shells. But, a $500 submarine mine, it can't see even if it's only a few yards away.
I don't know. Garth is pretty short. I've met him and talked to him. I'm not 6'-0". Garth can't be 5'-9".
Helluva nice and unassuming guy, though. He got away from his corporate suckup wranglers and hid, hanging out with the stagehands, on the gig I was on where he performed. He didn't want anything. I tried to give him a stool to sit on onstage and a bottle of water, and while he accepted both graciously, he didn't want or use them.
Gas prices are going up here in Japan thanks to to the So glad we drive an EV.

Knowing our dumb president I have to wonder if this is all about some kind of revenge

That actually really tracks.
That's so Trump!

It’s a Blue Water navy in Brown Water.
Like low tech drone warfare defeating the Russian military systems.
Needs the Mark IV eyeball detector system dude/dudette on the bow.
They can lookout all they like, but you cannot swerve an oil tanker to zig zag between mines...
I suree hope this war triggers the Rapture and gets those assholes praying for it out of our hair.
Is there anyone we can call to make that happen?
Apparently Donald Trump.
A well-deserved take down for Joe Fucking Rogaine.

Trump to rename the Straight of Hormuz the Straight of He-Man Heteros.
I voted for the Strait of Hormel.
We need those naming rights now more than ever.
Hey guys.
Ben is short for Obi-Wan Kenobi!, Chewie is short for Chewbacca, Luke is short for a stormtrooper!
I just quoted the vastly superior novelization of "Revenge of the Sith" way down below. Coincidence? Maybe.
And Darth is short for Garth Brooks.
I don't know. Garth is pretty short. I've met him and talked to him. I'm not 6'-0". Garth can't be 5'-9".
