[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In Response To Kharag Island

Iranian kamikaze drones struck the Port of Fujairah, the UAE's only oil export outside the Strait of Hormuz. Oil loading operations have been suspended. The facility had just resumed operations yesterday

So the US failed to open the strait and attacked the Iranian port facilities that export oil. Now Iran will strike back and destroy port facilities in the gulf.

Now if the strait is open there is no way to load oil on tankers…so the oil is stopped, oil prices will rise and remain high for years.

Thanks

Trump's lost the war. Iran is calling the shots on oil and is flexing their muscle now to that end. The Middle East has never been anything but oil to the US.[/quote]
I don’t know.  Without Kharg island can Iran generate enough revenue to support their military?  This is hurting both Iran and the US.  It’s a question of who crumbles first.[/quote]

Iran cannot survive without Kharg, but the thing is, they are willing to let their population starve, and they are willing to bring down the entire region's oil industry, until a diplomatic solution can be brokered by more powerful nations. The USA, with its soft citizenry unaccustomed to hardship, will raise political hell if prices rise a little.  Midterms are looming and the White House has no margin to work with.

So the US will cave first, and Iran will come out of this battered, with its regime still intact, some critical infrastructure destroyed, its people worse off than before, and a generation of budding terrorists who hate the US. The only silver lining is not for Iran, but for the Democrats, who will win the midterms.

Are we going to be able to have the midterms with these lawless psychopaths in power?  We’ve seen how far they’ve been willing to go just for a distraction.[/quote]

Elections are administered by states, counties and cities, not the federal government. will ICE be dispatched to cause distruptions? Yes. But the elections will happen. Certifications and seating newly elected officials, will be another hurdle.[/quote]
