This is what oil's doing this morning, btw. West Texas. Brent is worse ($110.50-ish) - they crossed back to the more typical relationship several days ago. #OilPrice #fascism #FuckTrump #IranWar

Donald Tantrump has spent around 2,000,000,000 taxpayer dollars buying back U.S. offshore wind leases and directing 'investment' (effectively subsidies) to #FossilFuels instead. Because delivery of fossil fuels through the Hormuz Strait is definitely reliable and in no way intermittent... #USpol #FossilFools #MAGA #GOP #TyrantTrump #NoKings #Corruption #IranWar #Trump https://apnews.com/article/trump-offshore-wind-energy-climate-interior-02a1fa04b750809bbe035a70256c734d

Sweden Herald - Latest Sweden News | BP's profit doubles as Iran war boosts oil trading by Sweden Herald AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. British energy group BP announced an adjusted net profit of $3.2 billion for the first quarter, surpassing analysts’ average expectation of $2.6 billion and more than double its $1.4 billion profit a year earlier; the boost was driven by higher revenue from oil trading as prices surged amid the Iran war, while BP’s limited operations in the Persian Gulf helped it avoid major production setbacks from the conflict.

Report: Israel is waiting for Trump's go-ahead to restart the fighting after telling Trump, “We are interested in resuming the campaign against Iran.” "Israel & US are preparing to resume the war with Iran, despite ongoing behind-the-scenes efforts". The US has sent an additional squadron of F/A-18 fighter jets to the ME; deployed more refuelling aircraft; & moved defence systems. https://www.middleeastmonitor.com/20260424-israel-tells-us-it-wants-to-resume-war-with-iran/ #USPol #EUPol #IranWar #news #IsraeliCrimes .

Not to agree with the misogynistic, homophobic, oppressive, theocratic government of the Islamic Republic of Iran, but he fucking *does*, doesn’t he? #Trump #iranwar

An internal Pentagon document leaked on April 24, 2026, reveals that the United States considered punishing NATO allies for refusing to support the American military campaign against Iran. Among the options: suspending Spain's NATO membership and reviewing US support for British sovereignty over the Falkland Islands. NATO responded immediately. The Secretary General stated that the Washington Treaty contains no provision for expelling members. Allies can leave voluntarily but cannot be removed by another member's decision, even by the United States. Spain has been a NATO member since 1982. The British reaction was restrained but firm. Downing Street stated that the Falkland Islands are a British overseas territory and this is not a matter for any negotiation, regardless of the state of transatlantic relations. A Falklands veteran told the BBC that the news made him feel his sacrifice was made in vain. The leak is not an impulsive move. It reflects a systematic effort to transform NATO from a collective security alliance into a transactional structure where support is exchanged for concessions. The alliance has functioned for 77 years on the principle that an attack on one is an attack on all. Article 5 never obligated members to join offensive operations initiated by another member. This matters for Ukraine and the EU. If US support for allies is conditional and transactional, strategic calculations must account for this. Berlin and Paris are already discussing independent European nuclear deterrence. Baltic states have faced delays in American weapons shipments redirected to the Persian Gulf. The question is not whether Spain will be suspended. The question is how many times the US can act this way before allies begin seeking alternatives. #NATO #Pentagon #Spain #Falklands #IranWar #Transatlantic #Security #Trump https://newsgroup.site/us-nato-spain-suspension-pentagon-iran-war/

Day 57 of the Iran war. US envoys Witkoff and Kushner are flying to Pakistan. Iran's FM Araghchi is already in Islamabad. Iran's official position: 'no meeting between Iran and the US is planned.' Both sides in the same city. No formal talks. The Strait of Hormuz remains blockaded — a 'dangerous standoff' as BBC put it. Saudi Arabia is sitting out entirely. 57 days in, and the best anyone can manage is being in the same city without officially meeting.

🚨 A leaked Pentagon internal document proposed suspending Spain from NATO — and reviewing US support for UK's Falklands claim — as punishment for not joining the Iran war. NATO responded: there is 'no provision' to expel members. UK's Downing St: 'position unchanged.' But the fact that this was discussed in official Defense Dept documents changes the nature of the Atlantic alliance. Not a partnership of equals — a hierarchy where Washington decides who stays and who goes.

Interview: "How Hawkish Democrats, from Schumer to Harris, Paved the Way for War with Iran" "The climate that the Democrats have helped lay in these 20 years of hawkish statements & resolutions... really made Trump’s job easier & has enabled him, thus far, to get away with it." Dem opposition has been "largely on procedural grounds without making a forceful moral case against war". ~Stephen Zunes https://www.democracynow.org/2026/4/23/stephen_zunes #USPol #EUPol #IranWar #USImperialism #neocons #news #racism .

RE: https://flipboard.com/@pbsnewshour/nation-c4vegjmfz/-/a-subUZ2G4Qz6LmEF8t2-HWw%3Aa%3A2651838374-%2F0 PBS talk to Columbia's Karen Young about fuel shortages in east Asia, and attempts to control demand in response. So far Europe, the US, and higher-reserve countries in Asia are mostly seeing price impacts on transportation so far. It'll take 3-4 _months_ in some areas (Kuwait in particular) to fully restart wells, and those won't restart until portside storage is drawn down enough to provide a destination. So add the 45(ish) days transit time, and you're looking at, oh... 5-6 months of follow-on impacts and upwards price pressure just for crude oil. And that, of course, doesn't even get into the price impacts on derived products, which are legion. #FuckTrump #FuckTheGOP #FuckRepublicans #fascism #news #IranWar #iran #war #oil #economy

Day 52, US-Israel and Iran War: The US is keen on conducting a second round of negotiations with Iran in Islamabad, Pakistan. However, Iran didn’t lean forward to show its interest in having a talk with the US until now, stating that the US shifts goals and violates ceasefire obligations. #JDVance appears to be arriving again in Islamabad on Tuesday but is not confirmed yet! The 10-day ceasefire comes to an end on April 22, Wednesday. #iran #unitedstates #iranwar
