I wouldn’t trust oilprice.com. Believe it or not they are a leftist rag. I thought following them for about two years I finally figured out birthday always are a perma-bull on the price but believe it or not it’s from a leftist standpoint.
Slow fuses?
Ruhr-Roh....guess that nuclear plant outside Tehran is going down now?
Trump could easily f them up by proxy. I wish he would have a British missile take something out.

BS headline.
Here is the reality. Those militias are Iranian backed thugs.

Thanks. I had to wonder about this source also. I wonder who feeds them this (dis)information.
Send in a hunter killer team of female Kurds.
Probably went rogue

Think chicken with their head cut off.
One of the things I’ve learned is that you never look directly at a wild animal. The best move it to glance at it, letting it know you know it is there, turn and look somewhat to the side, and don’t turn your back or back away. This works for dogs, pissed off horses, skunks, raccoons, etc. And I believe it works for Iran.
If you look directly at them, they go madly wild and attack. If you turn away, they become confidently dominant, and attack. If you stand your ground and keep them in your peripheral view, they calm down and start looking for a way to escape.
Trump is the best President ever. Iran is calming down and looking for a way to escape.
Concur. Katyusha rockets are common, and easy enough for some rogue group to launch without orders.
Similar thinking could apply to the Ukraine International aircraft: I could see some nervous,relatively low level soldier with a MANPADS, having been told that the US might attack any moment, gets an itchy trigger finger. Just my conjecture.
These animals will not stop until we put them down once and for all.
Checked the BBC website a little while ago...no mention of it.
Oil Price website is a gloBULL warming propaganda outfit.
