Omo that oil is being followed by satellites. Except they’ll produce another illegally but you see this 140 million, USA knows wherever they’re going to dock or even how the payment would be made.
Are you thinking through what you are typing?

Hope you know some countries e.g China has been buying Iranian oil and paying them for a long while before this war broke out?

So you really think they'd let their oil be sold at a time of oil crises without getting paid? Like seriously??

Do you realise what leverage actually is?

The truth is that this move is a massive trap for Tehran. The US is basically using Iran's own head to break coconut by weaponizing their own oil against them.

By letting those 140 million barrels hit the market at once, they are intentionally crashing global oil prices. The goal is simple: strip Iran of those high-profit margins they were using to fund their "runs" and operations.

It’s a cold "format" because the waiver only covers old stock already on ships, not new production. Iran isn't gaining any new market share or long-term contracts here. Even China’s "sweet deal" is dead now that they have to compete with Japan and India—the "distress discount" Iran was using to keep their allies happy has effectively evaporated.

Worst of all, while the oil is moving to keep global fuel prices stable, the money is still trapped. Financial systems are still on lockdown, so the revenue is basically "Audio Money" sitting in accounts Tehran can't touch.

Basically, the US is taking the oil to kill global inflation while keeping the pressure on Iran exactly where it is. Masterstroke.

the US is not going to bomb Chinese shipments. There's absolutely nothing the US can do about whom Iran sell their oil to. Iran already collected money, the oil is going to China, it's Chinese property, if the US bomb it they'll be at war with China which will finally bring an end to the US

Prior to this conflict,

Iran has been enriching Uranium up to 60% purity ...
Its technical well above requirement (3 -5%) needed for energy ...

And just short technical step to 90% needed to get a nuclear weapon

Inspectors were denied to access to facilities under Isfahan underground complex.

Let me leave you with the words of Late Ayatollah Khomeini
Why wouldn't they when Trump ripped the agreement by Obama administration apart and reintroduced more severe economic sanctions than never before?

Israel a "cancerous tumor" in the Middle East that must be "removed and eradicated".

He often argued that the destruction of the "Zionist regime" was not just a political goal
but a religious necessity and an "issue of the heart and faith".
He was saying that, just saying it. When Israel on the other hand was busy proving him right year after year. Israel is nothing more than a rogue nation committing atrocities across the region without restraint

TruthU87:
Day 21 of Operation Epic Failure

- Russian oil unsanctioned
- Iranian oil unsanctioned
- Ships paying Iran $2M for Hormuz passage
- $1T gone from stock market
- F35 proven useless
- American bases under constant attack
- Replaced Khamenei with Khamenei
It will take Iran decades to recover what they have lost and it will take USA few years to recover what they have lost. Iran is the worst hit in this war. Iran is just fighting economical war and those with brains know what Iran is doing. But the people who are moved by the hatred for Trump know nothing but are always talking nonsense online.

I’ll explain this in simple Nigerian terms for those in my mentions. Read carefully, because I won’t repeat myself before I log out.

Imagine Mr. Chinedu has kids (Zainab and Ade—for Federal Character) and he normally sells a bag of rice for 50k.

Suddenly, Customs seizes 10 bags. That’s 500k "potential" money locked up. Now, the Government (USA) tells him, "Okay, you can sell that rice now," but immediately they flood the market so the price crashes to 20k. Instead of 500k, Chinedu now has only 200k.

But here is the catch: Chinedu’s priority is paying school fees (250k per child), but the Government tells him: "You cannot touch this money for fees. You can only use it to buy food and malaria drugs for the house. And we must track every kobo you spend."
Between Chinedu and the Government, who is winning?

Secondly, look at Ahmed (China). Ahmed was buying "black market" rice from Chinedu at a cheap "distress" price. Now that the Government has opened the market for everyone at 20k, why would Ahmed still give Chinedu any special deal? Chinedu has lost his leverage.

If the US knows that Ahmed (the investor) will buy more and help Chinedu pay those fees, but the US specifically doesn't want those kids in school, do you think they’ll allow a free flow? Use your brains!

The same USA that tracked Osama Bin Laden to a hole in a wall cannot track oil tankers on the high sea? Abeg, make una stop funny me.

what you wrote made no sense. I couldn't even get a single point from your drivel. Iran couldn't care less if USA is watching and tracking their oil shipments. The US has no authority or say over Iran. They don't operate under US and western financial system. There's nothing black market about Iran and Chinese trades. They belong to BRICS and have an economy system independent on the US

But USA can sanction it, while didn’t they attempt trade when it was sanctioned? I’m done engaging y’all. If they were that strong, they’d have attempted trade since they are ‘world power.’

China is even helping them with Intel. So they won't go and sale it to other countries just because of higher prices?

That question will be better answered by search engines but I’ll give you a clue.

Iran never see any 'alert' from this 140 million barrels.

The U.S. only opened the tap to crash global fuel prices because their own inflation was hitting the roof. The money for that oil is basically 'Audio Money.' It’s going into escrow accounts that Tehran can’t touch for anything other than 'food and medicine.'

Plus, the waiver is only for the old stock already on the water. No new deals, no new production. The U.S. is basically using Iran's own oil to finish them. They get the supply to cool the market, but they keep the money and the pressure exactly where it is.

In every action there will be consequences. These are the consequences of US action. Iran are currently dealing with their loss, now it is time USA start facing in total. Iran has nothing to lose. The US does because they fighting a lot of countries via Proxy and can't afford to spend reckless on this War. United states is wasting money on this War which is not in their favor. Listen to yourself Iran can only spend money on food and medicine. Who gave you all this information let me guess ChatGPT lol.
