Let’s hope so. It has certainly fricked Americans at the gas pump.

Everyone agrees Iran having a nuclear weapon is bad but only if gas doesn’t go up $1?

Dude, this isn't about nukes in Iran. We don't care about that. Not even a little bit. All of this is to screw China.
Keep up baw.

Much, much more than doubtful. To think we would jeopordize the economy of the entire world, much of which are our allies, just to bring down one country, through military actions in other countries, is beyond stupid.

Because you have a childish understanding of international politics, and are unable to think beyond first-order decisions.

The global economy is not in jeopardy, and it's stupid to think it is.

Tariffs…all about China.

Shut off the Darien Gap…stopping the flow of Chinese illegally migrating to the US through Panama.

Take control of the Panama Canal…from China.

Take control of Greenland…protecting us from China.

Venezuela…cutting off 30% of China’s total oil import. Erodes the communist presence in South America.

Cut off Iran oil and the flow of it through Hormuz hurts….China.

Eliminating BRICS hurts….China.

Trillions of investments in American manufacturing hurts…China.
