Dude confidently dumped sewage on the thread and is happy about it. I'm sure the Jerry guy didn't even read it and just jumped to comment.

Still clinging to that delusional narrative? No wahala.

I gave you two sectors to look into just so you get an idea of how ignorant you are. Even if USA controlled Venezuelan oil for the next 50 years, American citizens and institutions would pay premium price for oil and they'd suffer from whatever fallout that occurs in the global market.

You have a layman's (or should i say childish?) understanding of capitalism. Using your logic, there shouldn't be a single homeless person in the US. There should be no bad roads. There should be no housing crises. There should be no student debts. Healthcare should not be unaffordable for most Americans. Go and read please. Don't allow arrogance to keep you ignorant.

shoodboi2:
Read what you wrote properly and decide who the foolish one is. Pay close attention to the part in bold.

FoolishBoy419:
No need for the boring insults. Tell us why oil price is more expensive in the gulf right now. Their capacity to export may have been hampered, but they still have enough for their domestic needs. Why is fuel more expensive in Nigeria even though most of our oil are produced and refined here?

There's no way anybody with an iota of knowledge on capitalism would think capturing Venezuelan oil would automatically immunize US economy from a global price shock. You simply do not understand it and you didn't make an attempt to understand it before bringing that silly claim. There are literally dozens of sectors in the US that you can look up to understand why that belief is nonsense, especially their MIC and pharmaceutical companies.

And lastly, do I need to remind you that all that claim about owning Venezuelan oil came from Trump, the same person dropping 10,000 lies per hour as this war goes on? I want to believe you're wiser than that.

they had grown accustomed to flouting putin's red lines

but then he posed a binary question to washington

do you want me to send an oil tanker escorted by a corvette, destroyer, and submarine through your backyard to cuba
or do you want me to send only the oil tanker to cuba

either way, russian oil WILL get to cuba
how it gets there is up to you

LordAdam16:
kuwait is 70% immigrants and only 30% citizens
in qatar, it's almost 90% immigrants and only 10% citizens
the american university in dubai has like 90% foreigners

if you hit anything in these countries
foreigners bear the brunt of the casualties

large oil deposits and low population
has turned the gulf monarchies into a situation where
the citizens eat, sh*t, and f*ck and they pay a mix of third-worlders and pros to run the country

in the uae that is getting hit a lot
many of the citizens have evacuated to oman
omanis are siblings of the emiratis
they refused to join the uae opting to remain independent

when the war ends, they'd return to the uae

citizens of the gulf countries have the same standard of living as the west

---

on if the system is good

well, norway has the exact same circumstance
small population, large oil deposits

they chose a different path
immigrants about 20%, citizens 80%
citizens work and are paid very high
menial jobs are automated as much as possible

morally, you can say this is better
but there are wide swathes of regional economies in places like egypt, pakistan, nepal that is sustained by remittances from migrant workers in the gulf

⚡Trump:

The United States of America is in serious discussions with A NEW, AND MORE REASONABLE, REGIME to end our Military Operations in Iran.

Great progress has been made but, if for any reason a deal is not shortly reached, which it probably will be, and if the Hormuz Strait is not immediately “Open for Business,” we will conclude our lovely “stay” in Iran by blowing up and completely obliterating all of their Electric Generating Plants, Oil Wells and Kharg Island (and possibly all desalinization plants!), which we have purposefully not yet “touched.”

This will be in retribution for our many soldiers, and others, that Iran has butchered and killed over the old Regime’s 47 year “Reign of Terror.”

russia escorted the ship with the navy through the north sea
same place that ship inbound to russia was intercepted

then i bet the kremlin sent washington a message
do we need to keep the navy escort coming or not?

the ship would reach cuba without an escort or with an escort
your choice

beginning of the war
i b feel say dem dey exaggerate, based on morale and fog of war
i'd wait for corroboration before accepting their sitrep

now, i dey believe them straight up

they announced that they hit a us military support vessel near oman sometime in the last 36 hours
euronews released an update of a sat feed of the vessel in flames
they let it berth at oman
let it be fully stocked
then when it started sailing away, they struck it
and they also struck the crane at the omani port used for loading the ship
