Looks like Abu Dhabi made a deal with Iran. Who will be next?


More like “US has agreed to let Iranian tankers through if they let all others through”

If Iran defaults on deal then China and India have only Iran to blame on their lack of oil from Iran…..

What pressure on China?

If the oil supply is flowing to China… that’s not pressure.

How else do you measure it?

Is it shut off or reduced?

Are they still purchasing under market value from Venezuela and Iran?

Direct, honest, reporting from a PBS Journalist? No spin at all? Nice.

He started with an overall assessment saying "we're doing very well," reiterating comments about destroying Iran's military. He added: "They want to make a deal but they're not ready to make a deal in my opinion."

@POTUS said he would "strike it again, yeah, I told them openly, I'll knock the hell out of it." He noted he purposefully left "100 yards" around "anything having to do with oil" there. "Didn't even come close," adding it takes a lot to rebuild infrastructure.

He continued, "I left a lot of infrastructure in Tehran because if you did it, it's years of building...I could knock out the electric plants in one hour... but if I do that, that's years of rebuilding and it's trauma. So I'm trying to hold off on that kind of thing."

Final Q I got was about American troops on the ground in Iran and whether he sees that happening: "I don't wanna say that." When I asked if his thinking has changed on that issue, he said, "No it's not changed" -but he just didn't want to discuss strategy with a reporter.

Allegedly, some stuff has gone down at the hands of the people.

As seen in this video, members of the Afghan Fatemiyoun Brigade are being deployed to man checkpoints.

The Afghan Shia fighters can be seen operating positions across the city, some of which have been targeted by Israeli drones.

Why would Trump try to cut off China's oil supply? Are we in a shooting war with China? There are many reasons why Trump would not cut off China's oil supply, scared shitless is not one of them.

Genuine non-snarky questions:

Is it shut off or reduced?

Are they paying market rates now?

Is that pressure, or just prices being absorbed like the rest of the world?

Trump's play here, regarding oil, is the regimes in Venezuela and Iran, China's main oil suppliers, will no longer be anti-American. And may even be pro-American.

Have you not watched the news for the last year? He took control Venezuela and Iran. Do you know where China gets its oil from? Did you know they didn't pay full price?
