Nobody said the MAGA bunch was intelligent. They remind me of fish on the beach flipping and flopping just like the Gold Fish in Whitehouse. :)

The MAGA clowns do not even know what they stand for. Retarded.

Conservatives have always been individualists. They aren't commies like the Democrats who will slap people around if they don't vote party line. 

Dems = cult. Especially cause their policies involve mutulating kids genitalia

Boebert's right. Trump needs to end this thing now. 

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?

Who were they attacking before we got involved? I honestly don't know because my focus has been 100% on the US and getting our shit in order. 

What I've heard is that Israel dragged us into another one of their spats with Iran. Taht fake American Ben Shapiro lied when he said Israel doesn't need any help - they can fight their own wars.

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.

Too bad there's more "bad guys" than dollars in our treasury.

You quoting an lDIOT just shows your insanity.

The reason they’re bad is because they think they can get away with it. It’s our public duty to prove them wrong.

You're talking about Trump, who routinely violates all ethical norms because he can get away with it.

IF Congress were actually functional he would be impeached and convicted already.

At least we know how to define a woman. 

Don't you think that if I were wrong that I would know it?

The only "interest" I care about is domestic. As a registered voter, I want this "war" over quickly - I'm already sick of it.

Energy trade is global. Which will affect domestic energy prices to a degree.

Not if we drill locally. 

Sure, AI says we can't use domestic oil because our refineries are mostly "optimized" for foreign oil only, but that smells like bullshit. We need to get independent.

Pretty comfy way of looking at the world, isn't it?  If you don't like the answer/reality you're getting, it's just fake news. 

Refinery infrastructure is incredibly expensive and often takes decades to get a Return on Investment.  A lot of drilling/pipeline/refining projects don't make sense for companies if oil is <$100/barrel. 

That's why there are thousands of issued drilling permanents for US shale, with nobody actually using them. 

That's a big reason why pipeline projects out of Alberta don't get anywhere. 

That's why Canada doesn't refine much of its own oil.

AI is correct. Most of your refineries are set-up to refine heavy crude which you mostly import from Canada. Keep up the nonsense and we'll cut you off...

You’re really wanting to be annexed forcibly huh? Don’t get too excited you’ll get your new driver licenses and passport in the mail. So don’t tempt us, we can make Venezuela and Iran look like child’s play.

The issue isn’t drilling, we have enough crude for our own needs. It is refining capacity. And it’s a spectrum not a do or don’t. America does refine its own oil for domestic consumption but we also refine overseas crude as well. Oil is tied to the dollar hence petrol dollar. If we want to remain being the currency reserve of the world we need to trade in oil, specifically make other countries dependent on our oil. Hopes this clears it up for you. To @Moonbox point, it’s not that simple to remain an Isolationist, though I appreciate the sentiment, it has never worked out well for us. The world goes to shit and eventually cost us more in blood and treasure to fix. Want to be left alone? It’s cheaper to prevent a bigger war with a few minor war. Hence the sacrifice Trump is making now in regards to Cuba, Venezuela and Iran. Russia, China and N Korea is next on the chopping block. That’s the roadmap to being left alone. And a quick note this is all planned to take place within our lifetime. It’s not a next century thing. If things work as planned, we should see a collapse of China by the end of this decade and Russia to follow after that by the 2050.

You want Abram’s tank rolling into Alberta yes? Just say so Canuck. You get to be American over night. It’s a win win for America either way.
