    We'll be COMPLETELY OBLITERATING Iran until the oil markets open Sunday evening.

    Then it'll be peace in our time.

    Again.

    Iran and the United Arab Emirates will resume flights between the two countries starting 1 July after aviation authorities from both sides issued the necessary operating permits, according to Majid Akhavan, spokesman for Iran's Civil Aviation Organization.

    moar defensive US strikes

    The U.S. military said Saturday it had struck multiple targets in Iran at President Donald Trump’s direction, continuing a string of attacks that have shaken the war’s uneasy ceasefire.


    U.S. Central Command, in a post to social media, said that U.S. military aircraft targeted Iranian military “surveillance infrastructure, communication systems, air defense sites, drone storage facilities, and minelayer capabilities” following an attack on a merchant vessel early on Saturday morning.


    The ongoing strikes in the Persian Gulf show the danger of the Iran war again spinning out of control, even after Iran and the U.S. reached an interim deal to try and agree on a final accord to end the conflict.

    anonymous source, but tends to explain Trump's surrender to Iran

    there would be no way to hide or handwave a diesel crunch away

    resumption of war, however, pretty much guarantees this outcome




    The U.S. does not have a month of freely deliverable diesel in a stress event. The headline EIA number shows 106.1 million barrels of total distillate fuel oil stocks and 3.631 million b/d of four-week average distillate product supplied, implying 29.2 days on paper. But that national inventory includes barrels in pipelines, refineries, terminals, regional storage, and operational positions that cannot all be allocated immediately to critical distribution hubs.

    Operational estimate: applying a 45%-60% practical deliverability factor to total distillate stocks leaves roughly 48-64 million barrels of usable, allocable diesel-equivalent supply. At 3.631 million b/d, that is approximately 13.1-17.5 days, rounded to 13-18 days.

    Diesel is not a lifestyle fuel. It moves every truck on every highway, powers every locomotive, runs every tractor during planting and harvest, and drives every piece of heavy construction equipment. When a family decides gas prices are too high, they drive less. When a freight company decides diesel is too expensive or too scarce, it cannot defer the shipment — the grocery store shelves just go empty. Diesel demand is largely inelastic. The economy cannot negotiate with it the way it can with gasoline.


    Let’s use the worst case: 13 days. Thirteen days means that if anything disrupts the supply chain — a refinery outage, a pipeline failure, a crude supply disruption — the effects reach the real economy within two weeks. There is no meaningful time to arrange alternatives. A tanker from a replacement crude source takes longer than 13 days to arrive. A refinery turnaround takes longer than 13 days to complete. The buffer is shorter than the lead time for almost every possible remedy.


    The geography makes it worse. The 13-day figure is a national average, which means some regions have more and some have less. The Southeast is particularly exposed, being heavily dependent on the Colonial Pipeline, which is itself a single point of failure that demonstrated its criticality when it was shut down for six days in 2021. Six days is nearly half the total national buffer.


    What about aviation fuel? Here is where the two problems collide mechanically, and why it creates a genuine bind rather than just a theoretical tradeoff.
    Diesel and jet fuel are not different products from different parts of the refinery. They are competing claims on the same physical fraction of crude oil — the middle distillate cut that comes off the atmospheric distillation column in the same boiling range. Every refinery scheduling decision is, at its core, a daily argument about how to divide that fraction between the two products.


    With a 13-day diesel buffer, the refinery cannot let diesel output fall. The economic and political consequences of a diesel shortage materialize too quickly and too severely. Diesel production becomes, in practical terms, the floor that cannot be breached.

    "we had totally defeated Iran militarily, but during the ten weeks of the ceasefire Iran managed to recons ute its military capabilities"

    The U.S. and Iran have agreed to halt military strikes and will meet Tuesday in Doha, Qatar, to resolve tensions over the Strait of Hormuz, according to U.S. officials.

    Do you still think Israel is calling the shots, Ball Buster?

    Denies the existence of the greater Israel Project… at the same time as Israel genocides Lebanon and Palestine.

    BREAKING:Iranian military spokesperson:Trump is just a pawn in Netanyahu's hands and is being pressured by the Mossad due to his involvement in the Epstein case.

    It’s from the official spokesperson for the Iranian military. They’ve been far more truthful than the Epstein coalition, you Zionist goon.

    you denied Israel were expanding territorially, previously. Trump threatening Israel in public is political theater.

    I'm not sure you remember correctly, Israel is expanding territorially right now, it's not a matter of opinion

    Oh, he/ she's the official spokesperson? My bad, that changes everything. Or nothing.

    I'm also not sure what the cartoon is saying. Does Israel have some secret Epstein files that they're holding over Trump as leverage?

    Trump says Iran has requested a meeting with U.S., but Iranian officials say nothing has been scheduled

    we're back to preliminary talks -- Iran demanding payment

    President Donald Trump has claimed that American negotiators will hold talks with Iran in the Qatari capital, Doha, on Tuesday after days of -for-tat attacks, but Tehran has denied any planned meeting with the United States.
    Iran, however, said it is sending an expert team to Doha to follow up on the release of frozen Iranian assets, agreed as part of the memorandum of understanding (MoU) signed this month to halt the four-month US-Israeli war on Iran.
