The world energy shock is coming

The US and Israel’s illegal attack on Iran will provoke a global economic catastrophe.  The US and Israel’s illegal attack on Iran will provoke a global economic catastrophe

We should be in the deep doo doo by the elections.  This will not end well.

How many of your "this will not end well" have not even arrived? Do you keep a running score to track your prognostication capabilities?

Official source?

Get real, if the trim on one of those flying bricks isn't perfect they are going down.  But no, there are no 'official sources' that can be respected.  All official sources are now kissing Trump ass.  Or have you not been paying attention.  In today's world mainstream media pays to play, and they all stay in line.

Oh come on. You tried this same logic when BigBalls got beaten up in Wahsington, and when I calculated out the odds of the cameras catching it, or not, it turned out that spurious wasn't coming from the online sources in this case but from your argument of everything could be seen everywhere in DC.

And seriously, a 12 year old can figure out that you are not going to talk about damage to a plane if you do not have to in a time of war.

You mean, except for this plane in question, and the tanker that went down while refueling others? Everyone talking about both of these is the proof that neither happened?

A 12 year old isn't even SMART enough to play this level of make believe, who are you going to trust, me making it up or someone willing to admit it because they know it happened?

Did it get hit?

On top of his personal hard-on, Trump was dog walked into this mess.  The problem for the rest of the world is that this is no pleasant walking of a dog in a park.

Philippines declares national energy emergency as Asia risks energy crisis amid Iran war

The Philippines has declared a national energy emergency in response to the U.S.-Israeli war with Iran, marking the latest sign of strain in Asia as the Middle East conflict stifles oil delivery and threatens an energy crisis.  Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. said in part that the ongoing war threatened "the availability and stability of the country's energy supply."  The emergency declaration allows the Philippine government to exert control over fuel prices and fast-track imports from alternative suppliers, such as Russia. Philippine authorities say they have enough fuel to last about 45 days at typical consumption levels.

No worries, Phillipinos are like Cubans, they're used to living in squalor.  Indians too.  We don't have anything to worry about here in the FSoA of course,we are exceptional!  Those shithole countries are overcrowded anyhow.  Think of the great Investment Opportunities when half the population of Indonesia starves!  You'll be able to buy a Private Island for pennies!

Eat, drink & be merry.  You're safe under the guidance and protection of the Chosen One, Saint Donald. Buy War Bonds!
