Iran - Israel/US War: Israel-US declare war on Iran, Iran responds

The U.S. is an oil-producing country, and I believe the war not affect U.S. oil prices.

That is not how it works in a free market. Global price rise impacts local price since oil can move around national boundaries. Gasoline prices have increased by about $1 per gallon nationally. That is about 25% increase.

Photos of the Ford in port in Crete have been published. There are no photos of any damage whatsoever indicating a strike occurred.

Whatever happened, its good its out of action. Hope the same happens to the other carriers.

Is there any attempt of infiltration into the perimeter of base?

Anyways, American bases in Kuwait and especially Iraq are exposed and vulnerable. If coalition escalates this war to ground operations then Iran should seriously consider launching concerted efforts to overrun these exposed bases through infiltration tactics coupled with overwhelming drone swarm attacks.

hope its true, otherwise israelis just killed the last hope of deal before the Quad FM meeting in Islamabad.

That's exactly what the demonic Israeli want. They want to fight Iran till the last American.

I don’t think he was vaccinated that’s the issue he talks like I post messages it’s all garbled and as if he sniffed to much glue when he was little……I never sniffed glue just saying that was the kid next to me in kindergarten

not many (if any ) to be honest. not even those that lack any seaport. e.g Afghanistan for ideological reasons.

That is why I continue to state that despite Iran's valiant war effort, geopolitically it remains in a precarious position because of its isolation.

It's simple, the government just needs to ban exports.

Also, the human world needs to enter a more environmentally friendly era of electricity. EV， Drones, robots, photovoltaics, and other power tools require more market share. Decoupling the world from Middle Eastern oil for a period of time is beneficial for addressing issues such as global climate change.

If Iran survives even with everything destroyed but gets control of Hormuz and ability to export without sanctions - its a win.

Agreed, but whether Iran is able to achieve this win or not remians to be seen.

Let me rephrase your comment from another perspective:

How many countries in the world - leave aside USA - will be accepting of exclusive Iranian control over the Strait of Hormuz given its role in global energy supplies?

Geopolitically, that is a far more important question to answer.

Most likely none though to your point, the issue is complex. Iran is on one side of the strait, GCC states on the other. GCC states aren't likely to accept that; that is a direct impact on their livelihoods.

That would be equivalent to the US advising Canada that the 4 remaining Great Lakes are all solely under US control. That's not likely to happen nor should I give the President any further ideas to consider.

Goodbye Global Economy, it was nice knowing you

 

[VCheng]

Most likely none

Exactly. Iran's geopolitical isolation remains its greatest danger.

Don't understand why the military heirachy are hiding with their families. You're in the military, you're at war and that makes you a prime decapitation target. Given Israel's tactic of going for the heirachy the last place you should be is with your family. You should be far, far away from them.

Sorry but the naivety amongst the Iranian heriachy is getting their own families needlessly killed. It's mind baffling.
