US State Department Stirring It Up With Iran...

You have a habit I see of quitting articles or vids if they don’t live up to standard . I guess that’s cool but it lends itself to creating an echo chamber . 😉
I'm not a liberal and know fully well that neo-conservatives are trying like hell to push us to war in Iran for reasons that are little to no benefit to the average American.
 
This was the alternative explanation for the Iraq war and it really didn't work out that way.
China was or no significance in either of those wars (1991 or 2003). But Oil reserves most certainly played a part. The access to the oil reserves allows the US to control the Petrodollar.

I'm missing one of the steps (could also be applied to Venezuela):

X has oil.
US government topples X's government
???
U.S. controls X's oil going forward, even after the replacement government is established.

US makes country X sell oil only for US dollars...

It's not something to start a war over.
I wasn’t claiming it was. RAS is hell bent on his belief that the petro dollar dictates much of our decision making. What I am guessing he fails to realize is that if China, for example, backed off less then 1% of their current dollar holdings it would be more problematic then no country trading oil in dollars.
 
So an Iranian official says "they can take out our entire carrier battle group with just 1 missile"...lmao..not even with any singular nuclear device that they MAY OR MAY NOT have...lmao...then the leader of the Republican Guard, which we have added to the list of terrorist groups for the 1st time recently...says "they will not negotiate with America, and we would not DARE to attack them"....also, LmAO...

You know that country, Iraq. That was at war with Iran, killed about 400,000 of their soldiers IIRC, more than we lost in ww2, korea, amd viet nam...COMBINED...yeah, them, we rolled over them in a matter of HOURS...thats how long it took with tomahawks and B2 stealth bombers that they couldnt even see. Much less hit...thats how long it took to destroy their capital city, sever command and control of their military, and destroy every single target thag mattered in their i infrastructure and Capitol. Which just happens to be situated right next door to Iran, so not only did they cower like beetches while we did so...they had a front row seat for what happens to shitbag sandbox countries when they tug just 1 too many times on Supermans cape.

BTW...the very 1st time Israel saw them attempt to use any kind of nuke to attempt to destroy our fleet....Iran will be a smoking radioactive hole in a glass desert...Iran is the number 1 sponsor of terrorism against Israel, most of the rockets that arent 800 dollar, home made, fertilizer sheet bomb firecrackers are made in Iran and smuggled to Hezbollah and Hamas...Israel is just waiting for a good reason to light that sheethole country up like a Christmas tree...

Iran better tread very, very, lightly now that they are shootkng their mouths off right and left, while refusing to talk diplomacy. When a country refuses to talk, that leaves action as the only means of communication. Their collective mouths are writing checks that their arses have never been prepared to cash...all this on the heels of 600 rockets launched into Israel, killing civilians for the 1st time since 2014

I don't agree with your stance on Russia, but I 100% agree with you here.
 
It's one thing to have a conflict over oil, it's another to have a conflict over the currency oil is traded for.
Not when you break it down. If it’s bought with snickers there will always be a snicker to dollar conversion rate. Is it good for us? No. Is it that bad? Not really.
 
With that said, if Iran attacks one of our vessels, we should respond with immediate and overwhelming force.
