Oil prices jump 5% after Iran threatens to attack Middle East energy facilities | Reuters

> Iran's huge Pars gas field was hit [today] during the U.S.-Israeli war, a major escalation that prompted Tehran to ​warn its neighbours that their energy installations would be targeted "in the coming hours." Have we tried not bombing the oil? You know, to maybe stop the lifeblood of the US economy from becoming even more expensive?

Donald says everything is going great 😆

What a terrible headline. Oil jumps 5% after Israel bombed Iran’s oil.

Look at the headlines. Alot of the masses form opinions based on those headlines. From the headlines, it looks like oil prices jump 5% as Iran threatens to attack Middle East energy facilities. What the headlines does not mention why Iran is doing it, kn response to what.

Paying more for everything so that the child rapist in chief can feel like a big strong guy and Israel gets free Healthcare, but I never will. F*** this stupid ass government.

Wild framing. The Americans and Israelis attacked oil infrastructure in Iran. Iran that performed tit-for-tat retaliatory strikes against American proxies in the region. Frankly, the whole region is lucky they didn’t respond in kind to the attack on the girls school, or the one on the desalinization plant, or the many attacks on rallying civilians.

I'm just laughing at American political theater insisting that renewable energy wasn't a worthwhile investment and their constant war on energy that would otherwise help break our dependance on foreign oil.... Maybe we should just make our cars run on beautiful clean coal.

They just struck the largest natural gas facility in Qatar

It's already come down to the minuses and then back up again since this was published.

I suspect the jump had more to do with the *actual* destruction of oil & gas infrastructure just last night by Israel, which bombed the South Pars gas fields, rather than Iran's *threats* of attacking the oil infrastructure of others.

2026/2027 inflations are about to put 2022/23 inflation numbers to shame.

Enjoy your high prices, MAGA. You absolutely voted for it.

While we all talk about this, we need to keep one terrible thing in mind: there isn’t anyone in the United States government capable of stopping Donald Trump from doing this.  There’s unanimous understanding that everything he’s doing with regard to Iran is awful and will only hurt the United States. Yet no one is capable of telling him no. No agency is capable of telling him no. No military brass is capable of telling him no. No co-equal branch of government is capable of telling him no.  The system is already gone, folks. There are no guardrails anymore. Donald Trump is in charge. 

Congratulations, Don, you just shot the rest of the world in the ass.

Where I live the price at the pump has gone up about 50% since Operation Epstein began...

MAGA: Make America Go Broke Again

I gassed up yesterday, damn. Used bicycle sales are gonna skyrocket.

Thought the war was won already.

Whatever it takes for us to get off of fossil fuels

This is Joe Obama's fault!

Those oil stock quarterly earnings reports are gonna be record breaking the next few quarters.

I doubt is was USA - they still would like to keep the Gulf nations as allies. It is possible rather Israel as they have no interest in any scenario where Iran comes out of this as a country - and getting ridge of USA's influence at the same time is just a plus.
