... to the sole benefit of US Big Oil? I think so. This seems ... obvious.
We have radicalized countless people in the Gaza and Iran. How could we not have? With the rise of drone-based munitions, it won't take much to harass most anything, forever, including the Straights. You don't have to close them air tight to convince shippers to make other plans and to increase shipping costs. That is all that is needed.
Drawing out the war in the Ukraine serves the same purpose; US oil and LNG exports to Europe have surged. The longer it lasts, the hotter it gets, the longer it will take for Europe and Russia to normalize relations.
It seems we have intentionally created a new "warm" war, that won't end, at the cost of many lives, at huge cost to the taxpayer, to the sole benefit of Big Oil.

I can see this. It seems ... Obvious. The only alternative is that Donald Trumps is massively stupid. Possible. But I think corrupt and self-serving is far more plausible and likely.
Can we afford such intentional mismanagement of world events? Forget your politics. By the time all is said and done, your PERSONAL share is going to be a new car. Bullshit.
