That's nice tty.. The price of oil IS going to go up, "as much as $20/barrel, which right now stands at 42 bucks per barrel. So, 50% potential increase in oil does mean gas prices will go up. Yes, the jump came quickly but it was as you say a few cents, not 50%. I realize nothing i say will end your fact free rants. So, may I ask: What does RT and Venezuelan propaganda say about this? I look forward to hearing more about this from you.
This is jimi's thread so if he wants to keep it centered on his hatred of Israel, Jimi, let me know and I'll start a different thread.
The thing is, today's news on this is all over the place.
Here, ABC news says Iranian Cruise Missiles and drones were involved: They said "A dozen cruise missiles and 20 drones were launched from Iranian soil."
Here, ABC says 20 Drones were launched from "unspecified" with Yemeni Houthi rebels claiming responsibility.
Mike Pompeo is directly saying Iran did it. Releases from Saudi Arabia do not say that.
Here, Huffpo points out the largest problem (in my opinion) in all of this:
The Liar-In-Chief Accuses Iran Of Lying, Highlighting U.S. Foreign Policy Quandary
Critics say Trump’s serial dishonesty makes it harder to gather allies to counter Iran’s likely role in an attack on Saudi Arabia.

Yemen’s Houthi rebels have claimed responsibility for the attack, but President Donald Trump has suggested that Iran, the Houthis’ ally, is truly to blame.
“This is what we’ve been warning against. When a president squanders all of his credibility ― including when it comes to issues as mundane as the weather ― he’ll have no ground to stand on when it comes to matters of supreme importance,” said Ned Price, a former CIA analyst and spokesman for the National Security Council under then-President Barack Obama. “It may well be that Iran was behind these attacks, but it’s going to take a lot more than the word of this president to substantiate that case.”
We have a historically low approval of this prez who has done nothing to win over the majoirty in this country who never voted for him in the first place. A minority president who lies all the time. A president who forced NOAA to draw a line on a weather map to vindicate Trump's made up claim that Alabama was going to get hit hard by the latest hurricane. Can a president with such low credibility successfully wage war? Let's also not forget that Trump was repeatedly warned of this very risk when he fabricated excuses to terminate Obama's nuclear deal with Iran.
If cruise missiles were used, there will be evidence in the form of debris from the missiles. Unfortunately, the evidence will come from Saudi Arabia. I don't see how I could believe it when they bring that evidence forward. I don't think I could believe anything Saudi Arabia says.
So, I don't have any conclusions, just questions. But I don't have a good feeling about this. I do look forward to hearing tty spout a goofy conspiracy theory over this.
