The Last Days of the Iranian Regime

Do we know for sure that they are out of storage?

Yes. We know the storage capacity and the rate of oil pumping. It is simple math to figure out that with little going out that very (very) soon, Iran will have to begin shutting down wells with nowhere left to put all the oil.

I agree with what Trump is doing in regard to Iran, but timing IS everything. In 6 months people won't be asking how things are going in Iran. They are going to the voting booth, with soaring prices at the pump, inflation continuing, and food prices as bad as before he was elected. Had he concentrated on those things, and waited until after the midterms to go after Iran, he would have had plenty of time to wait them out. He is slitting his own throat now...

I disagree, six months is a big chunk out of four years, and this should have been done back in 2010.

All of these economic issues you name are the result of the war and if you support what Trump is doing in Iran, why would you think these conditions will still exist in six months?

The US is scheduled to escort tankers through the Strait of Hormuz, and that should relieve price pressures from the oil shortage, and with the US continuing to increase both economic pressure on the ayatollahs, the regime should fall well before six months.

The economic problems will exist as long as Trump is in office.

He is not going to ameliorate his actions if it gets in the way of what he wants.

The problem is this: he keeps changing what he wants.

Iran knows this....probably willing to wait it out.
We are assuming too much .... they may actually be able to wait it out.

Wait it out? They have no money coming in to pay anyone, they will have no money to pay bills. No money, dwindling food, a shutdown oil business, a rather bleak future. Soon, civil unrest among the 90 million people of Iran will come to a head against the roughly 2 million in their Army. What will the IRGC do--- start stealing food from the general population? Live on apricots and figs?

And all of this because they simply will not give up their terroristic pursuit of nuclear weapons and refuse to stop the criminal interference and bullying of the global oil supply. Think about that: what does that say that they would rather destroy their nation rather than simply give up being major assholes and just live peacefully among the human community?

Lessons learned: I wonder what genius thought it was a good idea to leave control of the global crude supply and access to it all in the hands of a bunch of 12th century Mullahs?

Are you ready to receive your Gullibility Badge ?

It's all Theatre and they are all having fun with their Peace Plans which are just put together for press release to you and other Munchers , and nobody involved is in the least interested in their absurd details --- both sides.

The main thing to check on is the progress of the Energy and Food Starvation Psy Op
Only another 6 weeks maximum of the present impasse should guarantee the deaths of a billion or more next year .

It seems still on target , so get Prepping if you are smart --- which probably rules you out .

U.S. military helicopters sank six Iranian boats that were targeting U.S.-flagged ships in the Strait of Hormuz. This military action was a direct response to Iran's aggressive behavior, which included launching missiles and drones aimed at American vessels.
The U.S. military's involvement aims to ensure the safety of maritime navigation amidst rising threats from Iran.
Unlike Obama and Biden there are no ROE's in this action. The gloves are off.

Now China has shipped them 5 of their knockoff C-5 planes full of stuff. We'll see how this goes.

We should have shot that crap down. We need to cut off railways or whatever means China and Russia is sending them help. This is really big for China, China's economy DEPENDS of getting most of their oil at a 25% discount direct from Iran and it all being paid via Yuans bypassing the almighty US Dollar. In effect, China and Iran have stolen billions of dollars in revenue from the USA.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer faced significant backlash from Democrats after the government shutdown ended without securing the desired healthcare subsidies, leading to calls for his ouster. This situation has been viewed as a failure of leadership by many within his party.
Trump is doing to Iran what Schumer and Democrats attempted to do to DHS, and the Secret Service.
The exception is that Trump is more effective on his foreign policy than Schumer has been on anything he does.

Well, Iran decided to lob some missiles at their neighbors today, and I think all hell is about turn loose on them.
No link, sorry. Heard on the radio just a few minutes ago....

Some nearly stochastic notes on Iran. I begin by singing the same song I have been crooning since President Trump announced the ceasefire and naval blockade in mid-April. The war is over.

Ahhh.....exploding speed boats....
Sounds familiar.

There is only one ROE left standing:

1. FAFO. When we say jump you ask how high otherwise we smack you hard in the peepee.

 

[toobfreak]

Speaking of speed boats, I've noticed that when we sink one of them, we hit them with some big missile that kills everyone instantly sending the whole boat up in a massive conflagration.

Obviously, we should be using arms smaller and cheaper than that--- all we really need to do is blow a hole in it big enough to sink the thing.

When will we stop using a $1000 gold hammer just to drive in a 12-cent nail? The damn missile we hit them with probably costs us more than the whole boat and cargo was worth.

Agree

 

[toobfreak]

Yeah ....who thought this wouldn't be a problem?

Seriously, when WE discovered oil in the middle east and WE told them it was worth something then WE taught them how to mine it and that WE would buy it off of them, I cannot believe that we did not set up a structure to where WE mined the oil and gas, then paid the concomitant nation a cut of the proceeds, thereby guaranteeing both quality and quantity of a vital commodity with which a nation like Iran with not the best of intentions can now literally hold the entire planet their hostage, controlling us instead.

You are illiterate as to what is happening. Watch, please, and learn.

WE did all that, then they nationalized it.

Are they still in power?

I believe so.

They suck, but so does Trump and Netanyahu.

So you put them on the same level.
This shows how sick, how warped, how twisted your world view is.

 

[toobfreak]

If anyone wonders how affairs got to this point, be honest instead of trying to blame Trump as if this problem did not exist until Trump came along! We have had EIGHT US Presidents (including Trump's 1st term) that have utterly ignored the issue until now.

Just 10 years ago, look at how Obumma was addressing the Middle East problem:

Between trying to find an actual full-time job under Obumma, he had the Border Patrol literally caring for illegal migrant babies instead, and he was using NASA for Muslim outreach instead of going to the moon.

So before any idiot blames Trump now for trying to FIX the problem, lay blame at the feet of the EIGHT presidents who just jerked-off for 50 years looking the other way allowing it to gestate.
