Countries all over the world are currently stockpiling (hoarding) oil in case of a major outbreak of battle in the region. THAT is what's driving the price of Oil right now.
I wouldn't expect dimocrap SCUM to be aware of this. They really are stupid. I don't mean 'unaware' or ignorant, I mean mouth-breathing, drooling stupid.
If anybody thinks Iran wouldn't hold the world hostage once they've developed a Nuke is almost as stupid as a dimoccrap scumbag. Just look what they're doing now.
What annoys me about Trump is -- He thinks the Mullahs still have power in Iran. They don't. The IRGC is fueling the War and running the Show.
He needs to stop messing with the Iranian political Class (who are all idiots, anyway) and start going after the IRGC. Hard. Really hard.
Find out where their Barracks are and bomb them into a fine, powdery dust. Get the Kurds to attack from the North in order to draw the IRGC Troops out into the open and bomb them into extinction.
Trump and his Wall Street advisors are going about it all wrong.
And Generals? Admirals, etc? Stupidest people on Earth in an Irregular/Asymmetric War. They only know how to fight Conventional Wars. It has long been understood that the USA cannot be defeated in a Regular, Conventional War. The Iranians know it, too.
We need to arm Resistance Fighters in Iran. By the hundreds of thousands. Generals have cost us Many, MANY wars and countless casualties. Trump needs to get some Advisors who understand Irregular Warfare and listen to them.
