News@lemmy.world•Three weeks in, Iran war escalates beyond Trump's control
12·9 hours agoArticle failed to mention the literal edge of the precipice latest ultimatum: Destroy Iranian energy over an extra $100-$200/bbl oil price retaliation, and despair in GCC puppets vs. the previous 24 hours earlier threat of a good time: US leaves and world figures out Straights of Hormuz. Literally simple, and the greatest favour US could do for humanity.
Rather than complaining that Trump is out of control, hope that he is grasping for options, and world can knock some sense into him.

2·12 hours agoWas Israel’s only objective, and therefore Trump cabinet/negotiators objectives. So far, war has just made Iranian people more enthusiastic about IRGC’s dominance in the conflict. Electricity failure in the mildest month of the year won’t change that, and there are rapid electricity restoration (solar) solutions.
GCC is faced with a survival threat for their demonic, either secret initial war support or the gaslighting of ever escalating escalation against Iran. Iran has offered peace with GCC even as they are backed into executing their total annihilation. There is an important global community private communications with US channel path, even as anti-Iran public comments continue, that can try to convince Trump of declaring victory while accepting real defeat, which lets world reopen Gulf without US interference.

UBI is better than democracy. It solves the poverty/care problem we look to the state for. A bias against corrupt spending since an alternative is more cash as dividend.
Oh come on, that is so ridiculous and mean.

America will bomb the usual, all of the, countries, but it will not be done under a madman. A very beautiful and good, specifically pro semitic, reason that doesn’t change every day will be provided.

Israel will have the usual pure admiration and respect for the great American democracy, and as itself is the only democracy in the middle east, America’s best friend will continue to bring genocide to the region without Epstein/Mossad kompromat on the US President. Subservience to Israel will seem completely normal again!

Undoing some of Trump’s most direct destructions of America, will lead oligarchy to fund complaints for not obtaining maximal supremacism and other Zionist goals, and so sure, election 4 years after will be rigged against DNC rulership, but on the bright side, DNC poltical donations will reach a new record anyway. Make DNC rich again.
So, unlike what you said, America will be saved. A new, never before seen, Zionist warmongering, temporary DNC regime that reaches across the aisle for ZIonist harmony in its warmongering will be greated throughout the world with flowers for their
liberationbombing.-

61·21 hours agomany Iranian power plants are nuclear.
None of them are. It was always a mistake for them to accept Russia’s help towards a peaceful energy program, because Israel evil would permanently make accusations as path to this war. There is a plant under construction which was hit yesterday.

61·21 hours agoSeems to be 2 Trump options that tie into what was reported as extortion of GCC for $5T for war, 2.5T for peace. It doesn’t so much have to be a bribe as the outcome of each option.

US withdraws, leaving Gulf security to rest of world. = loss of past US support for their regimes. CIA/Mossad is very good at making colour revolutions in countries that are not loving of the USA. ie. all recognized democracies.

War crimes against Iranian civilians. IRGC destroys GCC water infrastructure, and keeps them blockaded of food and money including more damage to energy exporting capacity. Oil to $300+
The entirety of the US colonial world rulerships need a longer debate on whether US/Israel alliance is worth preserving over the US resorting to war crimes to avoid quickly losing the war, but risking far more permanent global destruction.
World fixing Gulf security without US is easy, and better than any longer war. EU shouldn’t care if it pays for oil in CNY. GCC still siding against Iran after the war started makes their destruction deserved. Ending US empire is their path to not face colour revolutions, and directly fighting Israel in response to colour revolution agitation is their path to get population on their side.
Should be a natural alliance with countries that offer useful trade, instead of political capture by the wealthiest. This is a moment for world to restrain/distance itself from US power, and will expose the corruption of colonial system if not. The same applies to Israel’s master relationship to US, where Americans may not understand the benefit of supporting genocidal evil, that will be directed towards them, eventually.

1·1 day agoYou surely need a lot of oil tankers to sail oil across the Pacific Ocean - because each voyage takes so long.
That is why the fair premium used to be $8 for asia (now $10) vs $4 for Europe. The entirety of the premium is to pay the shipping from one spot to the other.
And there needs to be export oil terminals in the US towards Asia
Everything is in TX and LA. There is not special Asian only valves or anything for shipping, and US has sold plenty of oil and LNG to Asia before.

The biggest user of Helium is MRIs at about 40% of global demand. Chips were 20%, but maybe they are catching up. Since AI chips, or even ddr5, has such huge profit margins, expect MRIs to be less insurable instead. No more fiber optics or quantum computing research.
