Ok this thread is turning into a shitshow full ill informed and/or misinformation
>Yemen’s Iran-aligned Houthi group on Saturday, September 14, said it attacked the world’s largest oil processing facility in Saudi Arabia and a major oilfield operated by Saudi Aramco, sparking fires in the latest round of violence in the Gulf.
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.
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.
“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?
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.
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.
Failure to protect against drone strikes.
Will see more of these as now proven to work for a small expenditure.
Not just any day in 2019. Today, it seems.

Wouldn’t be surprised to hear USA did it.

Looks like iraqi freedom all over again

If Bolton had his way, Iran would be sending a couple hundred of these across the Persian Gulf all at one time.
oh look, it’s the treehuggers. they finally want the world come crashing down. damn hippies!
