Well Iran should capture a US Oil tanker and if the US wants to go to war with Iran over it good luck to Trump in trying to get re elected with a war with Iran, Trade war with China and a recession on his record.

Trump's campaign message before the 2016 election was quite heavily focused on Iran. I think neocons have been waiting impatiently for the opportunity to spread their tentacles in Iran for a couple decades now, and they won't let the thoughts of elections distract them from finally going ahead with their plans for Iran before Jan 2021 arrives no matter how delusional they are.

Now we wait til Iran attempts to take another tanker (which are now being more securely escorted than before) and the US reaction may be different this time.

Knowing absurd shit happens these days with alarming regularity I wouldn't be surprised if he actually does buy it. Reminds me of when the bozo bought up a large area of land in Scotland a few years before he ran for President - all so he could build a freaking golf course. At first the Scottish government denied him the land because it was a special areas of conservation or what it is they call it, because of some iconic natural dune system located there and the wildlife. Not to mention a few people already lived there too. The next thing you know he's greased a few palms and suddenly a golf course is more attractive proposition to said government officials than protecting the natural environment.

In TV news they said he wants it for geopolitical reasons -> arctic ocean, I'd say.

I think they give him too much credit for such level of thinking. Most likely he heard the word 'green' in the name 'Greenland' and thought 'Oh wonderful that means lots of green grasslands, the perfect opportunity to build a million golf courses for me, myself and I to play on'.

Interesting. The most of their armor is US made.
...Well, not interesting at all, actually.
Trump's regime just donated about 150 old, rusty humvees to Lebanon. Not sure if Hezbollah is happy or disapointed. New Oshkoshs's could be better I guess...

Comment: "Most of these union workers seen as a backdrop to Trump were bussed in and they were told that if they don’t attend his rally they would be sent home without pay and would not be allowed to work overtime on Friday of this week. Total sham, you can even kind of pick out the faces that don't like the President and literally can't do anything to protest their attendance."

Appeasment Time Is Over, China Reportedly to Restart Work on All Iran Oil Projects
original article: https://oilprice.com/Energy/Energy-General/China-Prepares-Its-Nuclear-Option-In-Trade-War.html
Work on a massive field was previously halted so as not to antagonize the trade-warring US (no fucks given now
)
South Pars gas field (SP11)
►Talks have resumed with Chinese developers to advance the project.
Originally the subject of an extensive contract signed by France’s Total before it pulled out due to re-imposed U.S. sanctions on Iran, talks had been well-advanced with the China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC) to take up the slack on development.
As per the original contract, CNPC had been assigned Total’s 50.1 percent stake in the field when the French firm withdrew, giving it a total of 80.1 percent in the site, with Iran’s own Petropars Company holding the remainder.
West Karoun oil fields
►Renewing/Continuing Development of oil-rich West Karoun area, including North Azadegan, South Azadegan, North Yaran, South Yaran, and Yadavaran
Jask terminal Gulf Of Oman
►Will provide alternative to the current/vulnerable Kharg export terminal in the Persian Gulf
Jask Storage
►the intention is for Jask to have the capacity to store up to 30 million barrels and export one million barrels per day of crude oil. There are adjunct plans to build a large petrochemicals and refining complex in Jask as well, with the prime market for produced petchems – including gasoline, gas oil, jet fuel, sulphur, butadiene, ethylene and propylene, and mono-ethylene glycol – again being China.
Jask Pipeline
►1,000 kilometre oil pipeline will connect Guriyeh in the Shoaybiyeh-ye Gharbi Rural District, in Khuzestan Province (south-west Iran), to Jask County, in Hormozgan Province (south Iran)
'Sweet Deals'
►China has also offered to send as many engineers and other professionals required in such a project to Iran for as long as necessary.
Having said that, and aware of the leverage that it had with Iran as one of the very few countries still willing to engage in developing its fields in the midst of increasingly vigorously-imposed sanctions,
China has sought deal sweeteners from Iran, and has been given them.
In order for it to reactivate its development of SP11, China will get a 17.25 percent discount for nine years on the value of all gas it recovers.
“This is the value of the gas as applied to CNPC’s cost-return formula against the open market valuation, and currently the net present value of the site is US$116 billion,”.
For its part, China has agreed to increase the production from its oil fields in the West Karoun area – including North Azadegan and Yadavaran – by an additional 500,000 bpd by the end of 2020.

Houthi drone attack on the Saudi 'Shaybah' oil field near the UAE was a success.

The US Justice Department warrant for the seizure of the Grace 1 on the argument its journey is a violation of multiple US laws perfectly illustrates the US trying to impose its domestic laws on the rest of the world. It should provoke worldwide outrage. https://t.co/ijTmXVO7Vl
