Past time. Biden shut off the Keystone Pipeline and it should be reopened. Trump knows what he was doing.

The Keystone pipeline was intended solely to help a Canadian energy company move its product to the Gulf Coast and then to its overseas customers. There was no benefit for prices at US pumps. The information was and is available on line by reading the company's SEC filings.

Conservative farmers & ranchers in Nebraska didn't want Keystone because the inevitable leaks would get into the ground water that they need to grow crops as well as forage for livestock.

China is a very evil county and it trying to take over our country. They are buying agriculture land in the United States near strategic military basses and heeds to stop and make them leave. Give then the money back for the land. I'm sure they are not planing corn, or cotton, but things to spy on our military bases. GET ThEM OUT OF HERE>

OK. I really don’t think that the situation for Iran is as Dyer as you may believe. I only say this because they do have a way through Saudi Arabia, which the Saudi’s are allowing Arabian oil to be transported. The only thing is that it is more costly to go through there, but I ran is charging a premium to any consumers that are still using their oil due to the more costly route that they have to take. That’s what I have seen, but I do understand that you may believe otherwise

What happens when the PLAN shows up in international waters to escort their ships?

Steve's avatar

The game is not over and Iran isn't losing a revenue stream. Ways to ship oil are available to the north, both east and west of the Caspian Sea as well as by that sea. One doesn't need to be a supporter of Iran; which I'm not; to understand that these crowing Trump fan-boys never do real research.

the problem is that US can stay forever in a blockade state. Iran is over the strait of Hormuz, they can use it whenever they need. A blockade can’t last more than few weeks/month. Mine t’s a geographic argument. US’s blockade is temporary, Iran proximity to Hormuz is forever. It’s a time problem: can US submit a treaty before the end of blockade? I don’t know. But what is sure is that even after a possible treaty Hormuz will stay in Iran hands

The country will not be moved but regime changes can change everything. If you haven't seen the documentary on Prime called "Rage Against the Regime" you should watch it.
