Hormuz Is Disrupted, Saudi Oil Is Under Attack. So Why Is Oil Still Below $100?


Hormuz Is Disrupted, Saudi Oil Is Under Attack. So Why Is Oil Still Below $100?

The reason is not that the disruption has been minor. It is that several emergency measures have replaced enough lost supply to prevent a full scale supply shock from reaching the market.

The most important factor has been the U.S. military operation inside the Strait of Hormuz.

According to U.S. Central Command, American forces have helped approximately 1,000 vessels carrying 500 million barrels of crude transit the Strait since early May under Operation Project Freedom. Spread across approximately 86 days, that equals an average of about 5.8 million barrels of crude per day continuing to reach global markets under U.S. protection.

Before the conflict, roughly 15 million barrels of crude and condensate passed through Hormuz every day, while total petroleum flows approached 21 million barrels daily. The volume protected by CENTCOM therefore represents almost 40% of prewar crude flows through the Strait.

That does not mean Hormuz is operating normally. Independent shipping trackers continue to report substantially lower tanker traffic than before the war, and some vessels are likely transiting with AIS transponders turned off. Even so, millions of barrels continue reaching customers instead of remaining trapped inside the Gulf, preventing an even larger disruption.

The European Forest Fires

The European Forest Fires

It’s a really ghastly situation.

What makes it more unspeakably horrible is that so much of it didn’t have to happen.

In France, there have already been over 160 arrests for arson. Yesterday, the French Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu said nine out of ten fires were caused by humans.

The conditions have simply allowed arson or ‘carelessness’ to take off to devastating effect.

Like starting a campfire in a bone-dry clearing in the woods.

This is the behaviour of people who need asylum? 

We need asylum from them.
Tweet below reads, “THIS IS VERY SERIOUS. I’m receiving these images of how Moroccan authorities are emptying trucks full of young people near the border with Ceuta. Anyone who doesn’t want to see that this is a perfectly orchestrated operation by the regime is simply blind.” THAT'S JUST GREAT.

Bring Them All In ...

US/Israeli Military and Technology Integration

I hear a lot of people complaining about this integration. I am susupicious of it as well. Why not just buy and sell tech? Why integrate? I don't understand. 

Thus far, I have not seen any major conservative writers make the case for the integration. So, I am going to go to differences sources to hear pros and cons, and try to get a picture of what is actually happening.








YES, IT'S FUNNY, BUT UNFORTUNATELY, IT IS NOT REALLY A JOKE

There is a majority of Americans who want the war against Iran to continue

According to polling data commissioned by Tea Party Patriots, it turns out that, contrary to what even phony "conservatives" like those at the Federalist would have everyone think, many Americans do want the war on Iran to continue until its Islamofascist regime is defeated:
A recent survey has revealed that the majority of Americans support continuing the war in Iran. Sixty-two percent of surveyed general election voters agree with the statement “The United States must finish the job once and for all to protect the United States and our allies — which means ensuring that Iran can never obtain a nuclear weapon and can no longer threaten American lives” data from Tea Party Patriots Action found.

The poll also asserted that the numbers found in the survey should be a “reality check” for the media.

“72% of Americans — including 60% of Democrats — agree that Iran cannot be allowed to exert control over the Strait of Hormuz, which is consistent with President Trump’s policy,”
Tea Party Patriots Action Chairman Jenny Beth Martin told Breitbart News.

Martin continued, “And 62% of Americans — including 56% of Independents — believe that we need to ‘finish the job’ in Iran. … There is no split in the conservative movement on this issue. … Conservatives are overwhelmingly sticking with President Trump and the American people as a whole agree with the president’s strategy.”
If the Federalist doesn't comment on these findings, that'll speak volumes about what they're really like. It's good to know there are realists in the USA now who recognize the threat Iran's regime poses if it isn't taken down entirely, and surely recognize that if a ground operation is what it inevitably takes to complete the job, just like in Iraq, it'll have to be done. So we must give the military all the backing they'll need in order to keep morale high, which helps tremendously in order to achieve vital results.
