Iran War Reporting:  What is actually happening?

What is true, friends? Have Israel and the U.S. screwed the straight? Or is Blomfield misspeaking? His whole interview is of some interest, but the remark is at the nine minute mark. https://www.france24.com/en/tv-shows/spotlight/20260501-iran-s-most-potent-weapon-telegraph-s-adrian-blomfield-offers-rare-frontline-glimpse-of-hormuz

We can surmise that crippling Russian, Iranian, and with Hormuz, Middle East oil flow, the US and North Sea oil are poised for massive profit windfalls just as global diesel demand was falling noticeably from electric light truck adoption, and EVs generally. (75% of light truck sales in China in 2025 were electric.) Trump rolled in and authorized long range strikes by Ukraine, claimed Venezuela’s oil, and ruined the so called, “competitions” oil (RF and Iran etc) all of which squeezes oil poor China. Of course, PRC has fuel stocks, and, has been transitioning as fast as possible to wind hydro and solar, but the US is pushing before the transition is complete, and the next year could see intense shocks in China if the stockpiles run out.

The powers that be struggle in competition while all thinking people would argue to put aside primitive concern and simple greed, and address the imbalance of our ruined ecosphere and societies. With wonders at hand, we must stop soiling our bed. It is time for Les Enfants Terribles to grow up. We are so past tired of the grabby grabby madness which extols existential failure. (Yes, aspiring on a lemming run is failure.)
