Must have wrong protectionist paradox thinking Comrade on this board...

Should Iran have a nuke? Going with a hard no from me.

Many reasons for that, one of which is the following. If this can happen in the only country that I want to have nukes....geezum. Iran's 3-stage rocket radius...and growing...yikes. Hard no.

My biggest issue with gas prices are the hypocrisy. The same people who were ripping Biden for high gas prices five years ago are now defending high gas prices. The people who were saying high gas prices were not a major issue when Biden was president are now all up in arms about gas prices under Trump.
Well Biden caused oil prices to skyrocket because of his policies specifically targeting fossil fuels and the high prices lasted for a couple of years until Trump took office.

The current prices have been going on for less than two months and you fricking pussies act like the world is ending.

Go frick yourselves.

Oil is a global market.

The WOUSA (world outside USA) is not small. Yes, USA is significant. However, many on this board give disproportionate significance to the POTUS’ impact to oil market (and usually skewed with their political bias).

Oil prices today are impacting US households ~$500 per vehicle per full year for every $1 change in retail fuel prices. Most homes spend more than that on wife’s fingernails. Get over it.

But this POTUS vs that POTUS BS is BS.

Oil markets are global and complex. Just are. More that a POTUS can impact in most cases.

Note - strangling supply with war is an exception. Just is.

Nope.

You are clearly giving a handjob to the countries closer to Iran so that you can dump more US money into their economies rather than ours.

And the multitude of countries within their sphere of influence can handle it.

You want to keep babying the “whiny frick protect me protect me” countries out there.

“We should have to burn through our economy and devalue the dollar so that they don’t have to.”

The vacuum that you seem to think exists for the U.S. exists only in your head.

Raise your hand job metaphor by a self sucking metaphor. Same self that planted a nuke deep into North Carolina. Can only imagine what Hezbollah-access nuke might create…in said real world (not vacuum).

Air, water and pornhub defy your world vacuum thinking.

Good night and good luck in that vacuum.

Tell me what it's about then nitwit.

Did you take that attitude when Obama and Dementia Joe gave 100's of millions in cash to stop their Nuke program? No, I 'm sure you celebrated it.

How can you deniers be so stupid?

This is a country who's slogan is Death to America.

We produced more oil than ever before under biden. Gas prices shot up at the beginning of Biden's term but then it fell and gas was relatively cheap for much of the biden admin.

Boomers absolutely love this phrase. What's actually going to happen pawpaw is that your great-grandchildren will be speaking Spanish instead.
I hope all the effort in protecting Israel (instead of our country) was worth it in your eyes.

Yes, that was retarded too.

There are many western countries that could “stop Iran”.

They are actually closer to Iran too, if you were unaware.

Instead, you boomers want to dump the US economy and devalue the dollar so you can support other countries, rather than the USA.

You “US second” posters are embarrassing.

There are a multitude of countries within Iran’s sphere of influence who are more directly impacted by them having nukes than us.

You boomers will cry about how these countries don’t pay their fair share into NATO and should support themselves and then you’ll demand that the USA supports them militarily and performs actions that countries more directly impacted should perform.

It’s pathetic.

The entirety of Europe is more directly impacted by Iran having nukes than we are.

You want to us to spend our money performing a function that they should be performing.

What's gonna happen to the price of gas when they nuke Tel Aviv, D.C. or New York?


1. I’m not sure a nuke from Iran would ever make it to the US. North Korea has a better shot at that, and that threat has gone way down.

2. If DC or NY get nuked, you have much more pressing issues than the cost of gas. The global economy will be wrecked for quite some time, not to mention the deaths of millions, and wiping out one of the most significant cities in the world. You thought 9-11 and COVID were bad?

DC
So, your belief is that Iran would get a nuke, bypass every other western country, transport 6300 miles with said nuke through every other country between Iran and DC?

Really?

Why wait for a nuke? There are other massively destructive non-nuclear weapons out there.

They have drones now. Why aren’t they attacking DC with drones?

Ah, wait, it’s because they are 6300 miles away.

You are the same type of delusional individual who supported decades in the ME after 9/11 that gained us nothing but thousands dead or maimed, billions of capital wasted, and a devaluation of the dollar.

Idiot. Have you ever heard of suitcase Nuke or a cargo container?

Schmucks like you would rather squirm to find a way to make this joke than protect millions of lives and the economy. And leave it up to the hands of raving religious fanatics.
