Nah. So far we haven't hit Iran's oil export infrastructure. If China makes a serious move we blow it up. We can also close the straight ourselves and claim it's for protection.

- 01100011 8mo agoI ain't reading all that, but if you're referring to the strike on the oil storage facility in Tehran, AFAICT that's not for export. It's local consumption. We haven't, to my knowledge, hit oil exports yet.
- disgruntledphd2 8mo agoFair enough, but if the local supplies are disrupted, export oil will be repurposed for local supply, to avoid issues with the regime.
