Finally Some One with a Pair of Balls

In response to attacks on Saudi oil, Trump has made assurances that there will be “plenty of oil.”

Trump:

“Based on the attack on Saudi Arabia, which may have an impact on oil prices, I have authorized the release of oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, if needed, in a to-be-determined amount sufficient to keep the markets well-supplied.”

It is estimated that the attacks have cut Saudi output by 5.7 million barrels per day, which represents over 5% of global oil production.

The Israeli Broadcasting Corporation is reporting another ship has been seized in the gulf.

Amochai Stein:

“Iran has seized another oil vessel in the Strait of Hormuz. Iran's Revolutionary Guard arrests a vessel and 11 crew on 'diesel smuggling charges'."

The bad neighbor Iran strikes again.

Trump:

“We don't need Middle Eastern Oil & Gas, & in fact have very few tankers there, but will help our Allies!"

Iran couldn't have accomplished a worse self-inflicted wound.

They've had Europe listening to them. The US backed off of any military action after the US drone was shot down. There's been no retaliation over all of the tankers that Iran has seized. Iran offloaded their oil in Syria after lying about it. Trump was actually considering a meeting with Iran at the UN.

Then they go and attack Saudi oilfields and put the hurt on the WORLD's oil supply. How stupid.

The 74th session of the UN General Assembly begins today -- September 17, 2019. What is called the high-level General Debate is September 24, 2019.

You think everyone is going to know the origin of those drone attacks on Saudi Arabia by then? Oooops. So much for being able to believe anything that Iran says about it all. They haven't acted in good faith, and I don't think anyone is afraid of Iran after all of these stunts. Their bargaining power is nonexistent.

The neighborhood ain't happy with the bad neighbor Iran.

But Donny says hes got it covered with American oil so no hurt

Apparently you didnt absorb what the Saudi's are saying so far.And it was the Saudis attacked not the Americans

"As it turns out, the U.S. didn’t wait for “the Kingdom” but instead informed the Saudis on Monday that Iran was responsible for the attack. But the Saudis said American officials failed to provide enough proof that Iran was responsible"

They are talking that the loss is about 5% of the world production and all go crazy. The politics, the news and of course the oil price. 5% is what Iran can produce easy. But when the orange clown put a embargo on Iran nobody gave a s***t. Also Venezuela is cut off from the market.
But the funny nice guy from the US is happy to sell you his over production, But sorry folks the price went a little bit up.

Another thing is, the Saudi have some high tech US air defense, but have no clue where the attacks came from, Reminds me on the GT200 bomb detector Thailand purchased.

Are you someone's twin who also posts here?

You don't follow along very well.

From yesterday in this thread:

It is estimated that the attacks have cut Saudi output by 5.7 million barrels per day, which represents over 5% of global oil production.

The concern is that if the security of the Saudi oilfields can be breached once and attacked by drones, it can happen again.

[Domat]

A good idea would be be to shoot them down. If the Saudi and the US friends don’t know how ask Iran they know how to do it.

[Doodoo]

The concern is that is the attackers CAN get through the supplied protection system.

"The successful attack at an area well protected by several surface-to-air (Patriot and Improved Hawk) sites confirms the effectiveness of cruise missiles even in open and flat terrain. While at least one of the missiles have crashed on the way to the target, most of the missiles managed to break through the defenses and strike the refinery."

* Raytheon Claims 100% Success Rate for Patriot Missiles in Saudi Service July 2016

* US approves $500 million sale to Saudi Arabia of Patriot and HAWK missile system services January 2018

* U.S. greenlights sale of 600 Patriot missiles to Saudi Arabia August 2015

Lets hope Saudi doesnt ask for a refund on the price of these systems

[Domat]

No refund Toys R Us is bankrupt already

Saudi Arabia backs up US assessment that Iran is behind the attacks on the oilfields.

Colonel Turki al-Malki:

“The preliminary results show that the weapons are Iranian and we are currently working to determine the location.”

Saudi Arabia's military coalition confirms that the oilfield attacks were conducted with Iranian weapons and NOT launched from Yemen, despite claims by the Houthi rebels.

Saudi backs it up a country that murders journalists and dismembers them, that still crucify dead bodies publicly, a country that has killed 1000's of innocents in yemen. their the US backup

[Domat]

US intelligence told us first the attack was from the nord west. Later it was from the north. Now it was from the southwestern Iran, this is clearly east off the target. "OK we could not see them it was full moon". I'm surprised on there intelligence level. I don't have a clue why they call them intelligence.

Iran the bad neighbor now has more problems.

The US announced yesterday that they will "substantially increase" sanctions on Iran. That announcement had a dramatic positive effect on worldwide Brent crude prices.

Trump also announced that there will be no meeting with Iran's president at the UNGA.

[jackspratt]

Rouhani announces he won't meet with the US president at the UNGA - 3 days ago.

Macron sends military geniuses to investigate origins of attack on Saudi Arabia.

Macron, desperate for a renewed deal with Iran to prop up EU globalist trade, is doing all he can to stay in favor with the world's largest state sponsor of terror.

Macron has recently proposed a $15 billion bailout to buy Tehran’s commitment. A commitment to what exactly? The old deal is a non-starter, and Iran has already operated in bad faith numerous times.

Iran seems to be doing their best to make Macron look foolish for trusting them.

[Giggle]

It's got less to do with Iran than it has to do with appearing to "stand-up" to the U.S.
Britain tried it a few weeks ago and and have come out looking awfully foolish for it.

Watch the worms wiggle.

So why not, at least they know geography, they know where North, South, East and West is. They even can read a map. They had geography since primary school.
They maybe able to explain the sightseeing flight from the Iranian drones.
If there is any time left they can tech the US intelligence how to read a map. For example here is Iran, this on the right this East et cetera. And if they came from West-Northwest oops Israel is there.

The Chinese will use this 400 billion line of credit to calm Iran down.. That's a lot of dough.. Probably the Mullah's acting out was in hope of something like this, along with the 15 billion dollar line of credit from France. https://www.forbes.com/sites/kenrapoza/ ... 381337468a
