Looks like it’s time to deliver some “freedom” to Iran.

Shouldn’t matter if sanctions are enforced. Should prevent them from selling a drop. Easier said than done, I know.

Take everything Iran says with a grain of salt.

They would fricking love for the US to try and invade them and they've done everything they can to get it to happen and Trump so far has not fallen into their trap.

Plenty of oil here, no reason to get it elsewhere. Now I would agree if you said the MIC needs a fresh source of taxpayer money, but for that, they'll resort to uranium enrichment.

We indeed do export some oil but we are in no way NET exporters. US daily consumption of oil is about 20MM BBL/D and daily US production is about 12MM BBL/D. Energy independence is primarily a meaningless term and also a myth.

should be focused more on energy security. National defense strategy to buy all the cheap oil from other countries that aren’t sworn enemies while keeping our reserves untapped, saved. keep sworn enemies on their heels and don’t let them break equilibrium in a major way.

If our reserves are “untapped, saved” there’s no cheap oil to buy from other countries.

there is... that’s why we have an export market... surplus. Hence statesmen claiming energy independence. I think we should buy cheap energy, absolutely. But for security reasons. Not market. And this is where not having NOC kind of sucks.

If our reserves are "untapped, saved" that means they aren't being produced and barrels are being removed from the market, which result is that the price of oil begins to climb, which means that the cheap oil you see today (due to US supply) would no longer be available for purchase in the future.
