well unfortunately for them the US is a much bigger oil and natural gas exporter then we were
US oil production would swamp the market if prices go up
One or two tankers are not enough, they would have to close the entire strait, and that is war.
Really war.
And yes, US oil production will ramp up.
Hmm
We would take reserves and sell them to cash in and then replace with cheaper oil as it comes into play.
i say we conquer iran and frack the whole country
I'm not sure what their play is then.
Retaliation, and preassure to bring western countries to their negotiating table.
For the OG deal.
If they escalate they are out of options
The issue is, there seems to be growing support for the sanctions?
Out of options that would keep the zealots in power I should say.
Because it's working.
see i think iran specifically tries to push their god damn luck
Sanctions will lead to a war or to civil war.
like they do a thing and when we kinda half-ass retaliate they go <:pepelaugh:544857300179877898>
Ok, i just checkd the oil price, the US ones are going up.
And we are yet to see OPEC oil price.
you have that backwards, we do a thing, they half-ass retaliate, and we go <:angrypepe:497157904743268363>
Dropping prices is a way to push competitors out of the market
Not with sanctions.
There's no competition there.
Then they are desperate
no, sanctions is just bloodless act of war
"Please buy our conflict oil"
@Jokerfaic they are lucky we stop at <:angrypepe:497157904743268363>
denying shit like food and medicine, and having the fucking audacity to piss and moan when the international community frowns on that
The iranians currently have the cheapest price in the world, but only the Chinese are buying it.
The rest cant, cos of the sanction.
Japan is trying
If Japan violates the sanctions we should just let China have them
<:pepelaugh:544857300179877898>
@Wizard_of_The_West ahahahah no
or realise these sanctions are unproductive for all involved
How about we DON'T let China have Japan?
The current price of Iranian oil is 52/barrel. Compared the the OPEC average 62/barrel
dollar or cent?
It's barrel
