Trump says Iran's oil pipelines will explode in three days:
I'm pretty sure methods exist to stop an oil well from pulling oil.

I think trump is ...lets go with 'overstating matters' about "Pipelines exploding" but.....

Unlike fracked oil (where you generally need to pump down a fluid to displace the oil), a lot of mideeast oil is under natural pressure from geology and natural gas. This is why Iraq setting the Kuwaiti oil feilds alight was such a huge problem. once you drill a well, you can't just turn the handle on the spigot, the only way to close a well is to collapse it and hope the geologic presure tamps it closed.

I had a property with a oil well on it that was virtually depleted, the company who had the lease had stopped pumping oil and had moved to just collecting the small ammount of natural gas coming out. When I activated the lease termination clause because i wanted to have the mineral rights free-and-clear, they had to close the well it took them a couple weeks to get their equipment out and "restore" the area.

The thing that makes Iran's oil so cheap to exploit means they can't just stop it. Remember oil was discovered in the region because it just naturally bubbled up and pooled on the surface.

I'm not familiar with the pressures involved at Iranian wellheads but I think "exploding" is overstating the situation by a large margin. From my understanding Iran has a lot of "agressive oozers" but not gushers. However it will damage the pipeline and very likely cause leaks if pressure is allowed to build - the ground produces more pressure than a pipeline will be able to withstand, so its going to fail and leak oil.
which is also going to be a big problem after things move again - your pipeline will need scruturabl repairs and so will all the senors.

They aren't hauling oil tankers slated for ship breaking to their terminals because they're bored.

The Pakis really did earn Trump's favor for life by nominating him for that retarded Nobel Peace Prize, didn't they?
Still, it's good that he seems to be completely done with face-to-face meetings. Iran can send an email if they want to discuss terms.
Having Pakistan deliver us handwritten notes like this is high school because Iran can't risk the Izzat loss of directly talking to us is stupid and cringe.

I new here, tell me, what side do kiwi favor? israel and their amerigolems or iran? Or neither?

This thread is a news thread - with a laser beam focus on sharing the latest updates on events in Iran as they happen. It is scrupulously balanced and impartial. If you seek bias you will have to look elsewhere. We only deal in verified facts from trusted sources.
 
These people have such a pathetic understanding of the necessities of power and authority. You see the same thing with how they talk about cops:

>So if that blm rioter isn't allowed to block random passerby in his car then why are the police allowed to put handcuffs on somebody? In both instances somebody is being detained which makes the scenarios exactly the same!!

Even at my most weed smoking rage against the machine listening rebellious 11th grader peak I wasn't this stupid. I think every American goes through a phase where they ask questions like this but it shouldn't take more than a year for one to realize how short sighted it is and grow out of it. We're seeing politicians build their entire careers on this garbage.

I have been so tired of this for so long. Obviously what they're doing is in most cases just a rhetorical trick to muddy the waters, but if any of them are proven to actually be this retarded they should be in an asylum. You literally couldn't even run a pizza joint with this mentality.
 
IDK how the engineering works, but the toilets on my ship had the amazing feature of being able to run backwards and spew sewage into the berthing room. That was a really neat day.

Gen Z crying about a laundry fire. We'd have killed for simple smoke inhalation.
ohh bucko, dont you worry, they have WORSE versions of that because the "flows" are force fed by pressure, they call them "brown fountains"
 
If you are implying the reason for aggression against Venezuela and Iran is to secretly obtain leverage over China than that’s pretty silly. China has access to oil from many countries and was merely enjoying slightly lower prices. Squeezing China for a little
How is it a secret? Are you retarded? We picked up the dictator nigger in front of the entire world and Trump talked about the "Donroe Doctrine", there's even a fucking wikipedia page for it.
"Many countries." Feel free to name them and show their location in relation to the Strait of Hormuz, dipshit.

Absorb it for tha intrinsic reason as well as the fact that they are at peak use almost now and have a heavily diversified energy grid. They also have oil reserves that they aren’t drilling, they are saving it for war.
Of course you don't know what you're talking about.
Your diversified energy, sir (still 80% coal/oil/gas):

Meanwhile the US:

China has rare earth metals and can easily twist the USA in trade as needed and has done so which is why Trump has failed to do shit with China. China also only has 10% of their exports going to the USA and the days of China being reliant on USA trade to survive are over. We can cause inconvenience, but have no kill shot left.
Always the "rare earth metals" smoothbrain take. It gives them some leverage but not as much as people think.
Also it's not 10%, I doubt it's even 15% as this graph shows, because China uses places like Hong Kong and Vietnam as proxies to export shit to the US. The other thing is they make most of their profit by exporting to the US because we're fucking rich. Other countries do not pay as much as we pay so their margins are lower.

In summary: you're a retard who makes shit up and can't maintain consistency in their views.
 
Jesus Christ give me kamikaze over that any day
holy shitt right? a man can steel himself for all kinds of mortal perils, up to and including death, but there is somthing DEEPLY dreadfful about the day to day existance with the fear of THIS FUCKING THING

I swear this single frame would give me PTSD, its almost positioned exactly right so if your seated on the head you get half you face coated with 5,000 poorly fed mens expulsions, hope you dident have your mouth open sailor, your new variant of diphtheria is certainly not service related.
 
Which is pretty ridiculous considering we have a whole generation of twentysomethings who have been using dual-stick controllers their whole lives, who'd have loved to use stand-off and OWA drones to paste bad guys.

Even better: they get paid in loot crates, porn skins, and reductions in student loan debt.
 
I new here, tell me, what side do kiwis favor? israel and their amerigolems or iran? Or neither?
The rundown:

>Iran wants to force the west to submit to pisslam and is being used by ching chongs as a proxy that uses proxies.

>Attacking iran is good due to the above.

>Israel isn't perfect but it's attacking iran which is based.

>The jewsperg worldview is shaky at best and schizophrenic at worst.

>Most jewsperging online is now being perpetuated by browns of all flavors who would behead us the moment they got the chance and western leftists who don't realize they would be beheaded by such.

>Paying an additional $20 a month on gas isn't the end of the world.

>Trump is retarded but he's the kind of retarded the west needs.

>Tucker carlson and nick fuentes eat each other's assholes every thursday night.


>Studmccool is a well meaning drunk.

>Jose beaner luna is an honorary white.

>Fatpacks can predict the future (incorrectly).

If you prefer the opposite of all of these things go to the debate thread.
 
I wonder how many voters seduced by the headline promise of "America First" could have anticipated that putting America first involved starting yet another war in the middle east at the behest of Israel.

But at least they're safe from the definitely likely menace of an Iranian nuclear warhead detonating above their house. Higher prices for everything is a small price to pay.
“Muh Israel”. The line a sand nigger says when his brain is confused.

Don't forget that I, Mr. Racewar1488, am a proud member of the JIDF even though I always call jews kikes and the closest thing to being nice to them I've said is that the IDF is better than most Turd World militaries. But I don't sperg out at CTF or that other jew that posts except when he gets a little too jewy so clearly I'm a hasbara agent for Mossad.



Around a dozen U.S. KC-135 Stratotanker refueling aircraft are stationed at Ramon Airport in Eilat, southern Israel.

Members of the Iranian Special Police Forces posted a video titled “We are waiting for you, with our hands on the trigger.” The Iranian fighter in the video seems to be armed with a customized DIO TK9 “Tondar” submachine gun (domestic MP5A3 clone). If you're autistic, like me, enjoy a 20 minute video about the Iranian MP5:
