Something like 20% of global energy supplies travels through Strait of Hormuz, not 80% which many like to imagine.

What was the amount during two-years of Covid-19 lockdowns? How did the world survive a Mad Max scenario back then?

20% of total world crude consumption

But 40% of total world crude oil exports

Crude oil producers countries spend a lot internally.

It's not just oil, it's fertilizer, travel, the knock on effect to investments coming from the GCC

Iran has no reason to bow down to U.S extremism

He had no point to begin with... during covid there was a demand collapse and US released oil from SPR in 2022 to bring the prices down from all the resumption in demand coming from Asia.

For so many here... oil shock is not even a distant memory. The SPR since Reagan did provide a cushion and petro dollar liquidity...

Yanks are preparing for boots on ground. If so, things will escalate out of hand at lightspeed and engulf the whole region. Judging by the vicious Iranian response thus far I fear the worst God forbid.

They might be getting ready, but I doubt Trump himself is that stupid to put boots on the ground. They can't even pull off a solid win with nonstop airstrikes, so why would anyone think a ground war is going to go any better?

Plus, once videos start dropping of FPV drones hitting American troops, it's going to be brutal. That kind of warfare hits a lot harder psychologically than standard bombs and mortars ever did.

I think Trump has amassed around 100k soldiers around Iran ready to fight. However It won't be a full scale invasion of the country. I believe he will target a province, create an anti-mullah militia paramilitary force to take other provinces. Rinse and repeat.

I don't think USA has the willpower to commit 600k soldiers for full scale invasion.

Acceptance of the lopsided kill-ratio of Western deaths vs any non-Western deaths have been there for decades, regardless of the race, nation, continent. Just to get one Maduro, dozens of Latinos guarding him were killed and not a peep from the dozens of Latin American countries. Then there was the Vietnam War's kill ratio. Then before that was the World War II where Truman said something like the 'Asiatic' people have high tolerance of taking casualties--he was probably referring to the budding idea of nuking the Japanese. And many wars in between.
Such a sad world we live in. Cruel. Unfair.
