Iran allied Houthis. It was a tossup between Israeli or Iranian responsibly to me. I’m sure Israel would love putting the screws to SA, but sounds a little brash for them.
Yay! Chickens coming home to roost and all that. You fuckers deserve it. Also, totally called this, in fact surprised it took this long and that no tankers have been hit yet.
“The production shutdown amounts to a loss of about five million barrels a day, roughly 5% of the world’s daily production of crude oil. The kingdom produces 9.8 million barrels a day.”
Doubt anybody will miss that 5% and of course the suppliers of the other 95% just turn a valve open a bit more.
So do news services research anything these days or is it all about the clicks?
This really isn’t a Catastrophic Failure…unless we want to call it a security failure? its more like a Successful guerrilla attack on a major oil producer.
Ok this thread is turning into a shitshow full ill informed and/or misinformation

No, Israel wouldn’t have done something like this, because Saudi Arabia and Israel are allies.
No, this doesn’t “seem” like what America did in Iraq, because America and Saudi Arabia are allies, and also we didn’t set the oil on fire in Iraq, Saddam Hussain’s forces did, Americans put out those fires, it took months to get them all out.
