Why cant the Washington regime "just take" it?

These numbnuts haven't figured out that it's not that hard for any other country to get their oil. Only the US and Israel need to suffer to this war.

We will! And it'll have blackjack ... and hookers!

What is a king if his crown is worthless? Not a man of the people, but surrounded by cultists. Praised by the loudest, loved by the thoughtless. Crowned not by honor, but by lies that were endless.

His walls crumble as whispers grow louder, Causing once-shaking hands to grip blades ever prouder. The throne he once clutched, now colder than stone, His fate sealed by the seeds of ruin he'd sown.

He feasts while his kingdom is left to rot, Drunk on his power yet blind to the plot. A puppet on strings, now tangled and caught. If he ends up dead, then that is his lot.

The crown on his head, a mockery now, A hollow gold band on a sweat-ridden brow. No glory remains, no trumpets resound, Only silence and ash on the burning ground.

Betrayed not by foes but those he called his closest friends,

Their daggers ensuring his rule meets its end. No prayers are whispered, no mourners will weep, For kings who sow torment shall fall just as deep.

When he ends up dead, the people have spoken, A crown polished with falsehood is a crown that is broken. And a kingdom built on cruelty is one which ends with dread,

The crown on his corpse was always a crown of the dead.

Maybe we can build even more big beautiful windmills.

Even in that statement he seems to suggest taking oil from another sovereign country. Taking over other countries is sadly our British history, but not current practice, unlike the US.

Renewable energy baby go!

Trump: “what if we pissed off everyone

Generals: pissing of all countries who-

Trump: “I said everyone! Every single person on the planet! I want them pissed all the time!

At some point, some world leader should do a dressing down of this fuckface right there in the world stage.

Edit: Trudeau was too polite: https://youtube.com/shorts/G0va-McELJE

At least the ruling class isn’t hiding behind diplomacy anymore while they rape and pillage the world. They are showing their true colors in their political and economic wars and in their personal behaviors (Epstein).

I’m not saying the system was good (far, far from it) but this asshole walked into office and started dismantling 100 years of economic diplomacy and peace through trade. There’s no way you can tell me he isn’t a useful idiot for Russia.

What a fucking loser.

This being is the embodyment of pure evil. The accumulated evil and greed of the whole of America.

And yet during this entire thing, like a battered spouse, Starmer has still been allowing US planes to use their bases. And will continue to do so.

the U.S.A. won’t be there to help you anymore

They weren't helping anyone else before.

At best, they were helping themselves (mostly) without actively interfering with others ability to do the same.

Probably said the same thing to his creditors - "Go get your own money. I can't help you".

All friendships burned, all choices burning themselves, digging their own grave deeper and deeper. Total collapse is inevitable.

Remember all those Hollywood productions about post apocalypse worlds, only showing the US? I always wondered how the rest of the world would be. I guess just normal, it's just the US being a post apocalypse hell hole.

And Trump did all of that just to try to distract everyone from him being a pedo sex offender buddy of Epstein.

He's so incredibly stupid; honestly the biggest moron I've ever seen in any government.

He started this war, he didn't think it through - it was well known attacking Iran would lead to them closing the strait of hormuz, and it would be extremely difficult to open it without a ground invasion. Israel has wanted to go after Iran for decades but every US president had common sense and said no. Trump has done what no President has ever done. The US allies are not stupid enough to be drawn into the this pointless war as it's unwinnable.

Now this so-called "business man" doesn't even know how global markets work. You remove 20% of the oil supply, then prices go up because demand goes up - you still have 100% of demand. The US isn't protected from that as a net shale oil/gas exporter.

First: everyone in the world is bidding for oil and gas supplies so it goes to the highest bidder; thats how a market works - everyone ends up paying more including americans. Second: the US is a net exporter but it also imports a lot of gas and oil. It's exports are driven by Liquid Natural Gas. But it imports Crude Oil, because it can't produce enough of that for domestic demand. Third: As energy prices go up, you get "demand destruction". In other words, some activities are no longer economical as the price of oil and gas is too high and obliterates profits. That means the global economy goes into decline - a recession. And the US is in no way insulated from that - it is totally integrated into the global economy.

Trump has fucked over the US, allies like the UK, Canada and EU and the rest of the world. This isn't his allies' war, and they're not getting involved - it's politically toxic and it'd just escalate this mess. Trump can get frustrated at the mess he's made and lash out as much as he wants, but he can't get away from this mess. He has two choices and both are shit: Invade Iran with troops or admit defeat and cave into the Iran's demands. I suspect he will cave in and try and spin this as a "victory".

We (the UK) don't need oil from the Strait of Hormuz. Most of that goes to Asian countries.

They're far more likely just to pay Iran a nominal amount to keep it flowing.

The UK actually imports more from the US than anywhere else. We should stop propping up tinpot regimes, and buy from local friendly countries, or better still, just use a lot less of it.

I'm beginning to think the hardest job in the entire world is Secret Service Agent. I mean, c'mon, millions of lives are at risk, you're armed, and he's right there. Instant hero. /s

Edit: forgot /s. Obviously.

Once again the "most powerful military on earth" has to beg for help to defeat a single rogue state, and throws a tantrum when they don't get it.

The Brits supplying the British airfield from which US heavy bombers take off:

Meanwhile the UK is hosting USA bombers. Grow a pair - kick them out and close airspace until they show some gratitude.

European nation

Not if some of them can help it.

Funny to think that the UK thought one of the advantages of Brexit was that the USA and the UK could now finally get as close as they wanted without the interference of the EU.

This rant is extra ignorant with a cherry on top.

The UK already gets most of its oil from the US and Norway (sauce)

The Orange Child Rapist apparently did not know oil is a global commodity and therefore all/most oil cost the same around the world. I guess he figured if the USA did not get oil from Iran, US Oil was not going up in price?

What an embarrassment of a country to have this pustule of a person as president (elected twice!)
