US is a net exporter of oil. Is there a price point where the fed energy dept should limit exports to hold price down in the US?

That would not help. American refineries cannot run on American oil.

Pump, pump, pump. America is the "OPEC" of LNG too.

ABC News is reporting that U.S. officials have intercepted an encrypted communication believed to have originated in Iran that may serve as "an operational trigger" for "sleeper assets" outside the country based on "preliminary signal analysis" according to a federal alert sent to law enforcement agencies

The evidence is clear, this is not a Tomahawk
Iran alleged that an American Tomahawk Cruise Missile hit a school (buried in an IRGC compound) in southern Iran, killing 165 people.
Analysis of a newly released video tells a different story.
ANALYSIS:
A-I analysis confirms the wings of the munition in question sit about 40%-45% down the body of the munition. On a Tomahawk, the wings sit roughly 49%-50% down the body of the munition.
The wing to body ratio of the munition in question matches an Iranian Kh-55–derived Land Attack Cruise Missile.
Further, the video shows the munition in a steep dive angle for the final attack phase. This places the attack angle at approximately 70%, which is the max attack angle for a Tomahawk.
The attack angle does not match the KH-55. That angle maxes out at about 55 degrees. So what would have caused this?
CONCLUSION:
The wing positioning alone makes the munition impossible to be a Tomahawk. The attack angle is at the max of the Tomahawk's capabilities. The typical attack angle for a Tomahawk is much lower than 70 degrees. The typical angle is between 20-45 degrees.
This is due to the flight pattern of Tomahawks. They fly very low horizontally to the ground, often only 50-100 meters AGL to avoid detection and interception. In order to achieve that attack angle, the missile would have had to gain altitude several kilometers away, this would leave it vulnerable for interception. This is highly unlikely on the first day of US attacks.
So what could have caused this?
Simply put, GPS jamming of an Iranian KH-55. The USA and Israel were, and continue to actively jam the Iranian airspace.
If the KH-55's signal was jammed, this could result in an uncontrollable dive. Think of GPS jamming more like disorienting the missile.
On 03/07 President Trump stated:
“No, in my opinion, based on what I’ve seen, that was done by Iran.”
Today, I concur with the President.

Thank you, Donald Trump, for showing the world real leadership and care.

Just remember this will all be a coordinate process just like 1991.
The 1991 Gulf War featured a concentrated bombing campaign that lasted for 38 days before the ground offensive even began.
We learned many lessons from the Iraq wars. Finish it the first time.

Yeah, I thought this was your shallow view. You, conveniently, completely ignore what that tweet was implying, and you clearly did no further research into the shooting or the background of the area and the guy shot.

The IRGC are monsters, just more confirmation. Trying to trick people to sending their children to school so they can have some human shields.

#Important
The IRGC has sent SMS to families saying schools are open, send your kids to school,
Dear families, please do not do this under any circumstances; they are looking for human shields—don't send your innocent children to their deaths.

Have you idiots forgotten that the protests in Iran initially started because of how shitty the economy in Iran was?
Shitty for the average person on the street, not shitty for those in power. The new supposed leader of the regime has a 100 million pad in London. The folks at the top aren’t hurting for cash. Are you really gullible enough to think the regime is generously sharing the wealth with the average Iranian on the street?

Imagine the hysteria from anti-GHWB people if internet usage was widespread or social media existed back then.
