Iran will switch from “reciprocal hits” after attacks to continuous strikes on adversaries, and the U.S. will not be able to control oil prices, the spokesperson for Tehran’s Khatam al-Anbiya military command headquarters said on Wednesday.

the oil price depends on the regional security which you have destabilised
Well, they’re not wrong about that.
Fun Fact: one of the things the DoD does when they’re not fighting worthless crusades for the oil barons is draw up contingency plans for every possible scenario.
Surprise attacks on allies, alien invasions, etc. These plans have leaked several times over the years, they need to be updated often anyways and everyone does similar planning so it’s never a big deal.
One of the plans was for fighting the entire world. To do it, they planned on using the navy and missile strikes to shut down global oil transport. America is the largest oil producer after all, only Russia was considered a military threat with enough native supply to resist the effort.
Anyways, sure is weird how close we’re getting to being able to do that.
Historically, threatening Americans with rising oil prices has never been a good idea.
If they’re not careful America is going to kill their leaders, blow up schools full of children and make the rain literally black from all the burning oil infrastructure
The US isn’t in a position to stop this from happening.
Maybe even part of the plan, I’m sure US domestic oil companies are raking it in
Maybe even part of the plan
There is pretty obviously not a plan here from the Trump side of things.
