This is not good. Oil
prices already declining to $51 a barrel, then Iran bombed huge oil tankers,
prices went up to $53+, later back to $51. Yesterday Iran shot down a US
military drone, now we are back at $57.
In the US-CN trade war, Trump haters attack "Trump
tariff/protectionism" only, they do not attack, lambast "China taruff/protectionism."
In the US-Iran spat, Trump haters again would attack
"Trump aggression" only, "Iran aggression" do not
attack or lambast Iran.
Now see this lousy conspiracy
theory, advanced by a HK-based Filipino friend:
“Iran is a peaceful
country but the US wants to invade it to control the Middle East completely.”
What? Iran bombed other countries’ oil tankers, Iran
bombed the US drone, they explicitly admitted the latter, now blame the US? Lousy.
Another friend, Emil Dapogs, opined it correctly:
“US wants to invade
the Middle East has been a long-standing accusation that lost its legs. The US
wants the Middle East's oil is another farce. The US has its own oil deposits
bigger than Saudi Arabia's!”
Very true. The US wants the MidEast to be rich, wealthy,
so the people there can buy US cars, agri products, gadgets, various services,
etc. US won't want to have more poor countries that will require more subsidies
from its taxpayers to develop again.
