There was a psyop yesterday that a Navy ship ran out of food (impossible). It was promoted by the American media for a time. These people want Iran to “win” because it would make Trump look bad. It's crazy.
One of the British media sites (I believe it was the Telegraph) ran the story at the top of the page. Headline was something like, "US military serving soldiers a single spoon of meat on bread". I didn't even click the article, just closed the browser window because I wasn't interested in reading poorly written fiction.

Another reminder of why we should never build a ship we intend to put into harm's way without a competent deck gun. You don't take out rudders with torpedoes or missiles.
Another good clip from an Iran International editorial:

The United States stands as the unambiguous winner across all horizons. Export revenues boom in the first year as shale producers respond to sustained high prices.
Over five and ten years America solidifies its role as the reliable Atlantic basin supplier to Asian demand. Strategic leverage deepens without proportional domestic pain.
Arab states astride the Persian Gulf also gain by converting crisis into durable infrastructure and expanded market access.
In strategic terms the IRGC executed a classic use it or lose it blunder. By weaponizing the eastern hostage it compelled the very adaptations that render the hostage irrelevant. Global energy flows have begun a permanent eastward rerouting that favors flexible producers over vulnerable chokepoint holders.

NOW — SEN. JOHN KENNEDY says it PERFECTLY:
"Would you give, if he were still alive, Charles Manson, a nuclear warhead?! Of COURSE you wouldn't. That's why we had to go CAT WOMAN on Iran!"
"And it has worked. Iran, both the public and private sector, is being held together with duct tape and SPIT . They have one thing left, the sale of their oil, and the president has cut that off with a blockade."
"I predict that we'll have a deal with Iran that is a win for America within the next two weeks."
"The American people understand what we're doing in Iran, and they understand that higher gas prices were predictable, and that they'll go down after the conflict is over."

When people use statistics, they rarely tell the entire story. For example, the number "Hedgeye" used in that twitter post for US proven reserves (46 billion barrels) only represents about 6.5 years of supply at current US rate of consumption (about 19.5 million barrels per day). I'm sure the proven reserves number will rise over time (for a while), but it's probably not going to rise enough for the US to remain energy "independent" (using domestic oil) for the long term.
Also, the tight formations he cites do require more energy to retrieve the oil, and they deplete faster, than the traditional formations where oil flowed out of the ground under pressure. So EROI absolutely is a valid measure to take into account when discussing oil supplies. We eventually will need a new form of energy, both in the US and the rest of the world. It's silly to ignore or dismiss that reality.

Reeves is offering just £10 billion over four years to plug a £28 billion shortfall and defence chiefs have been told to make cuts of £3.5 billion this year.
One source claims: 'I’ve heard it from several people that Reeves said: “Why should we give money to a department that’s so far away from gender parity?”'

UK and French leaders are bought and paid off by the muzzies. If they don’t toe the line they are cut off.
Worlds worst whores.

Iran’s Ghalibaf: We are fully prepared—if they make even the slightest mistake, we will respond with force.
He will be going bye bye soon along with his other lunatic comrades.
There are also many new targets that have been unveiled we still need to hit.
The only thing these devils understand is force being reined on them.

That's the question that some have been asking since these "negotiations" began.
The US and Israel have been targeting Regime leadership since the very first shot of this conflict. That means a fractured regime was exactly what they wanted. It also means they considered your question and answered it (internally) before the war ever started.
