Yemen claims responsibility, Pompeo says it's Iran.(Same thing really)

    How does Iran benefit by inciting/causing all out war?

    Serious question.

    Maybe Putin has some sort of grand plan and is utilizing the Iranians to draw America into something.

    Let it play out. The Saudis and Iranians are beefing with Yemen as the proxy. Let them kill each other

    We have our own oil

    We produce 10Mbpd and use 20, so yeah I guess we have our own.

    You may pine for the 1800s Race and think we can build a wall and hole up, but it's not that way anymore. Globalization is a con curse word but it's happening and if any major countries suffer energy shortages we'll feel the impact.

    Ask Sadaam how it worked out for him when he fucked with ME oil production/stability.

    That's a good question, but bombing oil fields and capturing oil tankers sure makes it look like they want it to happen. They could simply be measuring Trump's weakness, but they're playing a dangerous game.

    Not a completely accurate picture...we export a lot of refined products as well. We are net importers, but it’s a lot more narrow of a gap than 10/20.

    Just split the Middle East into two spheres of influence - Russian and American. Keep the oil. Fuck Iraq, Fuck the Saudis. Fuck Yeman and Afghanistan. Fuck Qatar. Fuck them all

    Fuck everything else. Just protect the oil fields.

    Let the tribes/sects figure it out among themselves.

    Iran’s oil is currently being sanctioned and it’s crippling their economy. My guess, by limiting the Saudi’s production they’re hoping the sanctions will be lifted.

    If Iran glows in the dark can we pump their oil?

    Serious answer. Why did Hitler invade Poland and cause all out war? Why did Japan attack Pearl Harbor and cause all out war? Because they both thought that the France, the Brits and the US were soft and they wouldn't risk all out war. The fact that you asked the question seems like you agree with the Iranian perception. The Iranians can't impose all out war. Trump has bent over backwards. It's time to bitch slap Iran. Hit their nuclear facilities.

    I’m hearing we can’t drill our way to lower prices and energy independence. Unless you have a magic wand. That’s what I’m hearing. Don’t twist.
