It’s not so Iran can make more money, it’s for Russia. Also it helped distract us from the fact that indicted bibi is continuing with a 2nd genocide for his Greater Israel sideproject.

Actually yes, because this allows him to regroup, move slow moving carrier groups into position and secure oil supplies/put measures in place to keep at least Red Sea/Suez open when he continues it. Possibly also see who at CENTCOM has been reluctant to carry out war crimes, and do some more replacements there.

I can’t believe how people are falling for it, every time he pumps and dumps. This isn’t going to stop. It will only get worse. One guy is a blackmailed pedophile with demential and the biggest nuclear arsenal, the other is a criminal delusional religious radical who would rather die, than give up this Greater Israel crusade.

I’ll be another few years before we get to Christmas.

shart of the schlemiel

[–] CubitOom@infosec.pub 23 points 3 months ago

Don't forget, this was also a distraction for the Epstein files release and the fact that he raped children.

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago

it’s for Russia

Americans shitting the bed in the Middle East every day for fifty years

"Yeah, uh, actually that was Russia. Russia did that."

[–] Resonosity@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Aren't all ships paying in Chinese Yuan, not Russian Ruble?

China has more to gain from all of this than Russia.

People keep ignoring the fact that Obama struck a deal with Iran that stopped their nuclear weapons program.

Trump killed american troops to get a deal that's worse than the one we already had.

[–] drgeppo@lemmy.world 53 points 3 months ago (3 children)

that shit is making me crazy.. why do I, random European dude, remember trump breaking the Iran deal all those years ago, and no fucking journalist today dares to put a wee little reminder at the beginning of every article just to get all up to speed? wtf man

[–] ICastFist@programming.dev 12 points 3 months ago

Prolly the same reason mainstream media "forgot" to mention Operation Cyclone back in late 2001 and early 2002, or how they intentionally swallowed the screamingly obvious bullshit of "Iraq has WMDs"

[–] bitjunkie@lemmy.world 8 points 3 months ago

Because western mainstream media has been captured by the same interests who are betting on oil futures right before Donnie Dipshit tweets about it

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

just give us a few days before rubbing his nose in it. he might not lose it so bad

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 18 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (2 children)

ah but you seem to ignore that obama was a secret kenyan. he was all sneaky about it, being born in hawaii the way he was.

[–] DagwoodIII@piefed.social 4 points 3 months ago

I think it was Letterman who asked Obama why Trump had it in for him.

"I don't know, he's been like that ever since we were kids together back in Kenya."

[–] housedogpartyfavor@lemmy.zip 3 points 3 months ago

and don’t even get me started about benghazi

[–] FatVegan@leminal.space 6 points 3 months ago

He couldn't handle the fact that a black guy bombed more brown kids than him.

Remember, Jerry Seinfeld is not just a Zionist, but he also "dated" a 17 year old girl when he was 38. So best case, he is a genocidal groomer.

[–] HasturInYellow@lemmy.world 58 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (2 children)

They aren't charging $2mill. They are charging ¥2mil or crypto equivalent. They are intentionally demolishing the Petrodollar.

More power to them.

Edit: small correction, it is $2mil in yuan or crypto equivalent. A bit higher than ¥2mil.

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 17 points 3 months ago (2 children)

They are intention demolishing the Petrodollar.

I think Climate Change and explosion of alternative energy sources is doing that.

They're just trying to evade Western financial restrictions. Dollars aren't useful to a country that's cut out of the LIBOR and SWIFT banking systems.

[–] shawn1122@sh.itjust.works 11 points 3 months ago (2 children)

It's not just about how useful the dollar is to Iran, it's about making it less useful to other countries also.

If Iranian oil is back on the market there will be a lot of interested buyers. If it's only sold in yuan or crypto.

The petrodollar wasn't going to last forever youre right but there are many parties interested in ending it sooner than later.

So what? IF the dollar collapses, we'll slam in a crypto

Edit slash s

[–] unemployedclaquer@sopuli.xyz 3 points 3 months ago

Unclear, and fuck all that

[–] ICastFist@programming.dev 5 points 3 months ago

2mil yuan is roughly 292k dollars. No idea how much that is compared to other shipping costs

[–] Ghyste@sh.itjust.works 45 points 3 months ago (1 children)

He thinks he's going to be taking a chunk of those fees. Dumbass.

[–] edgemaster72@lemmy.world 15 points 3 months ago

Given his understanding of tariffs, this would not surprise me at all

[–] ikidd@lemmy.world 39 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Oh, don't forget that now the oil that actually gets through is being traded in yuan and RMB instead of USD, so now the petrodollar is starting to slip away, which is the only reason the dollar can keep it's strength because it leverages every other countries energy budget to contribute to US GDP.

This was true weapons-grade stupidity for that stable genius.

[–] the_armchair_potato@lemmy.world 36 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Not so Iran can make more money....it's for Russia to make more money, duh. Almost everything he does benefits Russia. It's so blatantly obvious, too. Russia has some real good shit on this clown.

[–] OhStopYellingAtMe@lemmy.world 8 points 3 months ago

“Israel and/or Russia first”

[–] Lanske@lemmy.world 35 points 3 months ago (1 children)

A Zionist twat. Hope terrible things happen to him.

[–] Grail@multiverse.soulism.net 28 points 3 months ago (2 children)

You are correct.

[–] pineapplelover@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 3 months ago

And a pedophile

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 18 points 3 months ago (1 children)

probably seinfeld is a bad example of being used, hes a zionist, his wife has funded prozionist groups, and he loves the war thats going on.

[–] pineapplelover@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 3 months ago

And he's a pedophile

[–] gandalf_der_12te@discuss.tchncs.de 14 points 3 months ago

This reminds me of that meme where a dad says "our cat just got eaten by a coyote so i'm gonna get a new cat from the animal shelter" and the friend says "well it just sounds like you're feeding stray cats to coyotes" and then the daughter started crying ...

Imagine if they actually had nukes...maybe the toll is not so bad??? I'm so confused.

[–] shawn1122@sh.itjust.works 7 points 3 months ago (1 children)

One can imagine that being told "a civilization will die tonight" will act as motivation for them to get one.

[–] ICastFist@programming.dev 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I recall a political cartoon back when Gaddafi was killed, it was Mahmoud Ahmadinejad (then president of Iran) and Kim Jong Un watching the bombing of Lybia under USA flag, with one asking "What message do you get from this?", and the other replying "Build more nukes!"
