Our interest align with the Israeli nothing more. But it’s also true that they have different interest than America. To be clear. The American position is to control the flow of oil in the Middle East , we don’t actually care which despot rule the damn place. Israel on the other hand want an Iran that is no longer a threat to their security. Where we align with Israel is the removal of the current regime who has allied itself to China. It’s also with in the US interest to not have Iran gain a nuclear weapon as that would set the stage for nuclear proliferation in the region. My conjecture is that if push came to shove, we actually want Iran to destroy all the Middle East’s oil production. Which would leave only North America/ Venezuela as the predominant supplier. Russian oil is being whittled away by the Ukrainian with US help.

Under what conditions? Have we finished destroying their nuclear capability and set the stage for a negotiated settlement where the Iranian stop attacking their neighbors? If not then why stop the war?

It’s not like there aren’t any help. The gulf state are helping along with the Israeli. But the usual deadbeat? What help?

With friends like that, who needs enemies. An alliance of leeches.

I get it, you’re upset. It’s not personal, you are blinded by TDS to the point of being a parrot of the Iranian terrorist propaganda, lacking genuine thought or insight for me to engage.

I didn’t even bother reading past the first two sentences, let me know when you stop making excuses for the terrorist. Your TDS makes you a useful ideot, a Jane Fonda for terrorists.

Used by the Iranian thugs to hide behind their human shield. The blood is not on America’s hands, so point your ideotic finger at the real perpetrator of war crimes. But we both know you’ll rather be a terror apologist with TDS don’t we?

Doesn’t really matter what they send or don’t . It’s going to hurt you all a lot more than it hurts America.

And yet the data shows overwhelming support by maga for the Iran war. https://www.politico.com/news/2026/03/20/poll-trump-maga-iran-war-support-00836556

This is a problem statement, not a quote of Carney. Original thought still exist okay.

The western world is driven by corrupt intellectuals who forsake the importance of faith. They instead promote hedonic beliefs of sexuality and intellect as the most important virtue. There is no true freedom without the voluntary adoption of responsibility; towards the greatest good with integrity. The Islamo fascist’s disdain for western culture is rooted in our nihilism and the worship of false idols. And they are right. When presented between the choice of tyranny or nihilism, most choose tyranny. And it’s not just Islam, dictators world wide are appealing against the weakness and rot of western civilization.

Not if they pull their weight. That’s all that Americans are asking for.

And yet look who came crawling back to America… we are the still the only good guys out there so don’t forget it.

In your case, you got what you didn’t paid for. Your NATO bill.

Yes if you’re not supporting the President on his decision to wage war against the terrorist regime then it’s self evident you are pro terror. There’s no gray area, just pure black and white.

Nah, the poor people will not stand for that, prices are going to come down one way or another. Other countries are already implementing a price ceiling not realizing that they’ll face a shortage. In America, we just won’t go below 30$ a barrel for oil, that’s the break even price point. So price sensitivity for gasoline in America is 1.80-5.00 a gallon. With the upper price being a political problem and lower price being a profitability problem. But you know what won’t be a problem? A shortage.

Cutting off your nose to spite your face huh? Have at it deadbeats, middle eastern oil hurts you all a lot more than it hurts America.

Point being, the US isn’t ever at any real threat of running out of oil. Not true for the rest of the world. Say asia and Europe or even Africa. The the oil prices is high enough, the us will start implementing a quota system of how much export refineries will be allowed, you’ll see.

Robo, I don’t know why you’re trying to segregate the Canadians, they deserve to be real Americans.

Why don’t you read your own source again. Expand across NORTH AMERICA. That automatically includes Canada.

Of course, supply and demand, constraint supply means higher prices. Shutdown export using presidential authority, supply goes up and price point comes down.

You mean cocaine? The slow death?

I think there’s a misunderstanding, light crude cost more to purchase because it is easier to refine as you say. Heavy crude is less expensive to purchase but requires more capital investment to refine at scale. The Us started investing refining heavy crude in the 1980s because we saw that the world’s oil is becoming more sour with impurities. Fast forward to present day. The US refining industry is the most advanced in the world, able to refine heavy crude at economical scale. Other countries’s refinery requires that they mix the light crude with heavy crude in order to refine it.
