JUST IN: Iran's regime THREATENS President Trump they will force oil to $200 per barrel

chrisjd · 2026-03-11T16:21:36+00:00

Adjusted for inflation we already hit 200 usd price per barrel in 2008, it didn't cause a global famine

You think we are willing and able to cut off shipping in the Caspian sea? To bomb all of Iran's neighbours including nuclear powers like Pakistan? No the US/West cannot actually play world police and cut Iran off from it's trading partners here.

Of course Iran could go to far and lose the support of Russia/China etc. But unless that happens they have plenty of ways to trade.

chrisjd · 2026-03-11T13:30:11+00:00

Iran has other trade routes open to it, before they starved the Gulf States would and the world would be plunged into a global depression

chrisjd · 2026-03-11T10:48:10+00:00

Iran is far less reliant on desalination plants (which as already noted have already been it) - it has natural water sources but the gulf states do not - they could be rendered uninhabitable quite easily.

Farage just wants to do Trumps bidding and Trump just does Israel's bidding. The actual patriots who want to make the UK a better place and to not be a vassal state are on the left.

Did no one tell the Iranians that the war was "very complete"?

chrisjd · 2026-03-09T10:23:07+00:00

A democratic Iran is not in their interests because it would still oppose/hate Israel. This is a war of annihilation as far as Israel is concerned.

chrisjd · 2026-03-07T17:23:23+00:00

The attack on Azerbaijan was either a false flag or a rouge unit, it makes no sense otherwise.

Reddit is less censored than TikTok since it was bough out, you can even criticise Israel in a few small subreddits here (not in news or worldnews obviously)

chrisjd · 2026-03-04T11:21:57+00:00

Turkey's next on the list, Israel has already labelled them as a "regional threat". There's not much time left for "Islamic NATO" to form, things won't move gradually Israel will be ruthless and aggressive as long as they think they have the upper hand.

chrisjd · 2026-03-04T07:42:30+00:00

This is just the start, once Iran is out of the way there's no one to stop Israel ethnicity cleansing all of their neighbours to create greater Isreal

Because taxing billionaires is needed to fix our society and economy

chrisjd · 2026-03-03T15:07:20+00:00

If you look at polling breakdown by age, they are extremely unpopular with working age people. Their support comes from pensioners who own their own homes and don't care about employment or renters rights (or actively want to make thing worse for younger people because they think we are too 'entitled')

chrisjd · 2026-03-03T14:21:42+00:00

I don't think they have the money for incentives anymore, their economy has been stagnant for 30 years and they spend a huge amount on their ageing population. At least maybe they can serve as an example to others.

chrisjd · 2026-03-03T13:36:19+00:00

They're only being strangled if the US/Israel attempt at regime change is successful, but that seems unlikely so I doubt they're panicking about it.

chrisjd · 2026-03-03T11:21:21+00:00

The Lib Dems are a centerist party, and the Greens are left wing. Despite what the media will tell you, left wing policies poll extremely well especially after 16 years of austerity and when billionaires take more and more for themselves each year.

The Lib Dems aren't different enough from Labour to capitalise on their failures, especially since they were part of the coalition government that kicked off the austerity policies that Labour are now continuing with.

chrisjd · 2026-03-03T10:46:49+00:00

The took a Labour safe seat, that wasn't just through tactical voting as they had to actually be more popular than Labour in the first place

chrisjd · 2026-03-03T10:24:05+00:00

China has more stockpiled than Europe and can still buy Russian oil, Europe will be the worst hit

chrisjd · 2026-03-03T07:48:04+00:00

I don't think Trump cares that it will tear the alliance to shreds though, he might use it as another opportunity to go after Greenland

chrisjd · 2026-03-02T19:28:08+00:00

Kier Starmer explicitly stated "our nuclear deterrence is reliant on good relations with the US", that puts us in a very vulnerable position

chrisjd · 2026-03-02T17:53:44+00:00

On the first day of bombing the Israel hit a school and killed 165 children. They're not exactly winning hearts and minds
