The whole Iranian attack seemed like a coordinated stage show really, almost like they coordinated with the U.S. via contact through Turkey, rumors of which is flying around alternative media. The Iranians sent slow moving, undefended drones mostly. It was a regular skeet shoot for the Israeli fighter jets and their allies and “The Iron Dome” defense system. No highly touted hypersonic missiles seem to have been used and no casualties or damage. It was like a show to create fear amongst the general population, a show that benefits the “Big Daddy Warbucks” of the world, otherwise known as The Defense Industrial Complex. I mean, who else benefited other than the suppliers of Iron Dome interceptor missiles and the air to air missiles. I guess the other possibility might be that the Iranians wanted to draw down the Iron Dome supplies and later they will unleash the hypersonic missiles. So far, it just reminds me more of the scene in the movie “Catch 22”, when the character played by Jon Voight makes a deal with the Germans for chocolate and in exchange, Voight has U.S. bombers bomb their own base. It’s all such a colossal waste of time and money, but as always, the insiders make their money.

Near 0% chance the other opec countries tolerate iran disrupting their money spickets for more than about 5 minutes. The only reason they’re able to operate at all is bc of the cooperation of the UAE and Saudi’s. They don’t even refine their own oil to a degree that most of the world is allowed to use it. They depend on their neighbors for that too. They’re not gonna piss off the only countries that dont sanction them to death and if they did they’d have more than Israel to deal with so it wouldn’t last long

Well, all I can say is: It's a good thing we have that Strategic Petroleum Reserve to fall back on if/when international oil markets seize up. Except . . . .
