🔴 #الامارات تُفعّل خط أبوظبي–الفجيرة بكامل طاقته (1.8 مليون برميل يومياً) خارج مضيق هرمز، وترفض تماماً شحن نفطها تحت السيطرة الإيرانية. 🖍️ هذا ليس مجرد خط أنابيب.. بل رسالة واضحة: لن نسمح لأحد باختطاف أمن الطاقة العالمي. 🔴 الاستقرار يبدأ بالشجاعة والتخطيط المسبق، لا بالتهديدات والقرصنة. 🇦🇪 العالم يعرف الآن: الإمارات شريك موثوق.. وخطوطنا مفتوحة للجميع، إلا لمن يريد الابتزاز. 💪🛢️ #الإمارات_قوة_الاستقرار #خارج_هرمز #مضیق_هرمز

This is Pakistan. The lower black arrow pointing to a blue circle - that's Islamabad where the "negotiations" took place. The upper black arrow pointing to a blue oval a mere 60 miles away - that's Abbottabad where the Pakistanis sheltered Osama bin Laden. Your "mediators" folks

The Iranians are master chess players, bleeding onto the board with a gushing head wound, refusing to resign despite an irrefutable forced mate, and claiming victory because they’re disrupting the tournament

Thank you for pointing this out. It seems to be lost on the masses: closing the strait is not a power play - it’s their only play. They have no other options. And it’s also one that harms China more than it harms the U.S. Managing the collapse of a regime isn’t winning, no matter how loudly people say it is.

China emerging as a major loser of U.S. war with Iran: China’s supply chains are beginning to show signs of acute strain as the US war in Iran tests the limits of President Xi Jinping’s years-long effort to prepare his nation for external shocks. Sharp price increases and supply disruptionshave emerged across key products that form the backbone of Chinese industry. Beijing is now hoping that the ceasefire announced this week by US President Donald Trump and Iran can hold beyond the initial two weeks, allowing oil and gas to flow through the Strait of Hormuz & global trade to resume. Prices in China have doubled for some polyethylenes, disrupting the market for materials needed to make everything from plastic bags and bottles to clothing & toys. Prices for some carbon fibres, which rely on some feedstocks from the Middle East & are widely used across the auto & consumer goods industries, had risen 20%. The supply crunch is also hitting lower-end manufacturers. A shelf maker based in Wenzhou in eastern China said that, due to the recent surge in prices of raw materials, especially of “core plastics”, the company decided this month that it would have to raise prices for all new orders of certain products. Analysts and diplomats have warned that a protracted conflict could trigger further export bans on products including plastics, fertilizer blends & industrial inputs such as sulphuric acid as China’s supplies start to run thin. This could threaten foreign countries that rely on Chinese trade.

白人少年をイジめる黒人男。 チョークスリーパーを決めて失神させ、 撮影者と共に嘲笑う。 これが逆の立場だったら差別だなんだと騒ぐくせに、自分達は平気で野蛮な事をする。 黒人だからという理由で優遇する時代を終わらせるべき。

@SandyXiaotong Why is "the market" uninterested in providing sufficient chargers for EVs? Insufficient supply in the grid? 50% more electricity on the grid to support electrifying vehicles, that seem unlikely since we have only increased supply by 1GWh/month (5%) since 2008

We're approaching the crescendo of a huge show-down between the intermittent energy lobby and the regulator. The outcome is a possible inflection point for the prosperity of generations of Australians. Many, understandably so, are of the understanding that the interaction between supply, demand and price apply to power in the same way they apply to everything else. i.e. if I slap solar panels on my roof, my demand from the grid reduces, which should mean lower prices for everyone else... Not so. When a service requires massive high-cost infrastructure, like a grid, the more power the grid carries, the cheaper grid costs are on a per-unit-of-power basis. As people use the grid less, those same grid costs remain, but are spread across less units of power, which pushes up the unit-power-costs. Or c/kWh on your bill. There's an argument grid-capacity can be reduced as a result of less users, but there is no sign of this today. Planned grid infrastructure additions sum to the hundreds of billions of dollars to make an intermittent-heavy grid work.  The Australian Energy Market Commission (AEMC) knows all of this, which is why it has proposed an substantial increase in connection fees. Such that those who install solar and batteries continue to pay their fair share of grid costs. Strangely, this explanation is missing from intermittent-lobby's shrieking in the article below. reneweconomy.com.au/plan-to-increa… The AEMC proposal has been met by howls of outrage by the intermittent lobby, as paying higher connection fees would reduce the appeal of installing solar and batteries in the first place. The final say on the proposal by the AEMC is to come from the Australia Energy Regulator (AER) - Imagine the backroom lobbying going on over this. Such a rule change would be devastating for a government battling a cost of living crisis (of its own making), and would dramatically slow the rollout of solar and batteries across the country. Punching a hole through Chris Bowen's energy strategy in the process. The decision stands as an inflection point between a progressive power system which spreads costs fairly, and a highly regressive power system, where those who can afford to limit grid use are excused for paying for the most expensive part of a power network - reliability.

Endless negotiation is an Iranian tactic for the Blob muppet class who think that 210 hours or 2100 hours will yield a different result... Iran has taken a fearful beating in the last month & yet still will not abandon its question for nukes - there is a lesson here for the wise
Aaron David Miller@aarondmiller2

If Administration believed after only 21 hours of negotiations, Iran would give up enrichment which is what Vance implied, they totally misread the moment and the Iranian dominated IRGC.

@DG68020 @JoumannaTV Iran is the new North Korea. But without nukes. “Winning” “great victory” 🙄 US restores its position an unmatched global military power AND is now the world’s energy supper power.

על רקע כישלון השיחות באסלאמבאד, דבר אחד כבר ברור — עוד לפני הפערים בעמדות הצדדים: א. איראן הגיעה לשיחות לא מנקודת חולשה, אלא מעמדה של חוזקה. במובן זה, היא לא הייתה מוכנה לשום פשרה משמעותית. ב. מנגד, נראה כי בארה״ב שררה תפיסה שאיראן נחלשה די הצורך כדי לכפות עליה הסכם המבוסס על דרישות אמריקאיות, הן בתחום ההעשרה והן בכל הנוגע לסוגיות כמו חופש השיט במצרי הורמוז. ג. הבעיה הניצבת כעת בפני ארצות הברית היא שגם חזרה ללחימה עצימה לא בהכרח תוביל לכניעתה של איראן, ואף עלולה להרחיב משמעותית את מעגל הלחימה — באופן שיפגע עוד יותר בכלכלה הבינלאומית, הרבה מעבר למה שכבר נפגעה. ד. לכן, הנשיא טראמפ יידרש להכריע בין שלוש חלופות: המשך מו״מ שכן סביר שלא מעט מדינות יבקשו ממנו לעשות כן, סיום העימות ללא הסכם, או חזרה להסלמה צבאית, תוך הבנה שגם פגיעה בתשתיות באיראן או מהלכים כמו כיבוש איים, יכאיבו להנהגה האיראנית, אך יובילו גם לתגובה קשה ולגביית מחיר כבד ממדינות האזור, מישראל ומארה״ב וספק אם ישנו את עמדותיה. בשורה התחתונה, המבוי הסתום נובע ישירות מהפער העמוק בין הצדדים בשאלה הבסיסית: מי למעשה ניצח עד כה. כל עוד פער תפיסתי זה אינו משתנה, הסבירות להסכם נותרה נמוכה. הכדור נותר במגרש האמריקאי.
