    I’m convinced the whole Hormuz thing is aligned with big oil to prop up the Venezuela grab and shit like this.

    Who knows though, so many backroom deals drive everything this administration that even dumber cash grabs could be at play.

      Nah, they thought the decapitation strike would paralyse the nation, and they could just take over like in Venezuela.

        Maybe that was the original intent, but I think the dragging on is making lemonade for the oil interests.

        When you do not give a shit about the common people and just care about your sponsors who control the biggest businesses and industries, it fits way too well.
