Death, death, and more death!

Interestingly, he was one of few Middle Eastern leaders to abdicate an inherited position (in 2013) instead of holding on to power like a drowning cat. ALSO interesting is I can't find a cause of death, so far.

>So why aren't these donkeys declaring war on Iran?
Because the only real prize is telling Iran that it's open season on hunting them. Their defensive stockpiles will not magically improve if they formally declare war. The dangers to themselves, their military, and their government apparatus, on the other hand, go up immensely. Sure they can hit Iran harder by more significantly involving their own assets, but that's not really a winning move for them. They're not expecting to defeat Iran, the US is having issues targeting useful attacks to the point of using AI to generate more targets, and the escalation ladder for doing damage to the civilian sector can end in their own desalination plants and power plants being destroyed and their whole country going back to the stone age. It's very high risk and low reward.

The thing is that while you can trick the American people, the world, and the markets you can't actually trick the physical amount of oil that exists in the reserves. Which is strangely something that even Trump himself acknowledged when he agreed to the ceasefire and MoU. So effectively all he did was pause the situation for a couple of weeks but without any clear way to either win or extricate himself from this war. It wasn't long enough of a pause to refill the reserve, or to get Republicans past the midterms, nor was it a strategic pause to be able to maneuver more equipment in for an attack. So I'm not sure what the point was? Is Trump even sure what the point was? He doesn't seem to have a plan. Threats aren't working so he's going to have to make good on them (and probably cause worse problems for the US and likely still not win) or he's going to have to swallow his pride and get out of the war in Iran (and he'd likely have to resign right after as well).

So good luck with that I guess.

>>19105
Iran will get the most beautiful nuclear strike in US history, better than when we bombed the Taliban in '45, it will build back a stable flow of oil below $3 a gallon better than the dum Bidet admin and boost the US Nuclear Industry which is the greatest on the planet, China doesn't want this but we won't let them take Tibet and our beautiful air conditioners EU climate clowns can only gawk at, thank you for your attention on this matter.

The kikes had former president Ahmadinejad all lined up to be a puppet for them. Which has been going on for years. And apparently the strikes freeing him on day one led the Persians to figure out just how much he was in service to the kikes. They apparently were looking to arm Iraq militias to invade Iran and help install him.
That never happened.  The impulsive dementia patient was sold a fake promise. And now everyone pays, because the last thing he can be seen as publicly is weak, and/or an idiot.

The problem is it would take months of peace to get a somewhat constant supply of oil to refill the reserves. And from there it would take years without further issues to bring it back to the capacity it was pre Covid, which the reserve was already greatly depleted from.

Was this calculated pre ceasefire or after the ceasefire came and went?

>>19141
Real answer(s)? 
Possibly the US. The US has long been an ally and has a number of Jewish communities to act as a safe haven. The counter point to that is that the Jewish BPD like response to everything means that they treat America's moderate tiring of the never ending Israeli middle east nonsense (and growing discomfort with what they're doing in Gaza) as the same as the US going full 1935 antisemite.

Possibly Russia. A significant portion of Isralies are descended from ethnic Russians or other slavs. Russia also has protections against defaming the Holocaust, stronger than the US. On the other hand the Jews are still holding a grudge against the Russian pogroms and likely distrust them because Russia is an ally to Iran and a (semi)ally to Turkey.
  
Possibly China. China is unaligned to western philosemite-antisemite axis of thought so they might be seen as a safe neutral ground. Also China, by hook or by crook, is economically looking up in the world. Additionally China apparently has a foundational group of Chinese Jews. The negatives are that the same lack of cultural and religious continuity that makes China (and all of Asia really) neutral to the Jews means that the Jews are also not special there. They would also have to subordinate their religious practices to the Party and culturally they would also have to subbordinate themselves to the ethnic Chinese Jews so neither the Haredim specifically nor Ashkenazim broadly will like that arrangement. 

Possibly somewhere in the global south. If they're planning on leaving Israel then it has to be out of fear or understanding that the experiment has failed and that the US will not be able to save it. Which implies something like a collapse for the US and the west and probably a resultant world war, of which Israel would be sitting duck in various ways. It would make a great deal of sense to get entirely out of  the northern hemisphere. If I had to hazard a guess I'd say that they'd move to Australia. It's western enough that they'd have cultural and legal leverage. It's southerly enough and isolated enough to be away from most of the potential WWIII twattery. And it's sparse enough that they could literally just form an independent community somewhere without fear of displacing or angering anyone.

>>19140
I find it rather amusing in an ironic sort of way that the kikes themselves instigated this shitshow -- a dream they've cherished for nigh 5 decades (at least) -- and now it looks like they're going to get their own faces pushed in by the Iranians they're crying "OYY VEY!! These American brutes must stop abusing us so!"

Sounds like Jordan didn't bother to activate its own air defenses to protect US bases and the US didn't either. Of course, it's possible that the radar destruction meant that there wasn't enough time to scramble an effective defense, but it's more likely Jordan doesn't actually want to get too involved in this war. Feels like a bit of realignment to me, since Jordan usually tries to befriend the USA more and maintain ties with Israel. Hell, Jordan was helping Israel intercept Iranian drones in 2024. Now it's letting the US bases get hit without putting in any effort to defend.

>>19168
I thought the President of Jordan was an open US/ISraeli puppet, obviously that said Jordan is politically fractious with several of those factions seriously threatening open civil war but I'm not sure how much the Israelis really care as that could be advantages to them.

No, it's a king of Jordan, a monarch whose overriding policy goal for the past few decades has been to survive and avoid losing power. He'll make himself useful and play a lot of sides to stay afloat. Right now the USA is on the way out of the middle east and Trump is already neglecting any countries in the middle east that aren't Israel, so I wouldn't be surprised if he's hedging his bets at this point.

You're comparing applies and oranges there, graphs are based on different sets of data.
First line was projecting ~165M bbl by July 10. ()
The updated graph shows 179.5M bbl actual level on July 13. In other words the actual drawdown rate was lower than initially estimated. They revised forward estimates not historical data there.
That doesn't mean the initial estimate was bad, those assumptions simply changed, in other words they looked at that chart and said "oh shit we better pump/buy more oil" and that's probably what happened.
