@johnkonrad there is a guy in Oregon that would surf that thing like nobody else @DaleStarkA10

This is a good point about the wording.

Pilot in “stable condition”? Was he injured/wounded in the incident? Significant if Iranians are able to hit US warplanes obviously

I allowed some people to vent at me today. I chose not to block them because they might not be able to reach their psychiatrist on Sunday, or they could have run out of their meds.
I got four messages from friends asking me to block them. The above is my response. Thank you for all those who defended me. 😍

@vcdgf555 Someone at the top of there game ;) Others, not so much

The flash of the explosion briefly illuminates the typical IRIAF 5- number under the Iranian flag. The flag is also there, though the camera does not show the green stripe of the flag very well; only the white and red stripe show.
English
Well, it's not.
It's an Iranian Il-76. Pic of one in same livery (minus Iranian flag near cockpit) in 2022 at Shiraz (location of bombing in video).
The Enforcer@ItsTheEnforcer
In the footage released by @CENTCOM today showing strikes on Iranian aircraft, it appears one of the Ilyushin IL-76 aircraft might have had a Russian flag on the tail... 👀 Anybody else seeing that, or am i mistaken?

@vcdgf555 Do you think Shahed from Iran, or Houthi's took the shot?
English
Deleted a prior post because it is not actually the port of Salalah, Oman that is burning per se.
It is the fuel storage above on a bluff that is burning. Not the storage containers at the piers themselves.
An important distinction, I think.
Basha باشا@BashaReport
The @OmanNewsAgency did not mention Iran in its statement, which has fueled a wave of speculation. Some rumors suggest the Houthis may be behind the Salalah port attack. Other theories claim Israel could be responsible to fume the fire. Still, Iran remains the most likely suspect in my view.

@anasalhajji "Free Market" and all. If the price reverses the losses on the government held shorts would sting.

Do you want to talk about market manipulation? You can see it before your eyes! Disgusting!

$5.6 billion of taxpayers money.

WASHINGTON, March 10 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump's administration said it used $5.6 billion in munitions during the first two days of strikes against Iran in a report provided to U.S. congressional committees, per source familiar with the matter. @ReutersZengerle

@vcdgf555 He meant Tehranahawk, they are 1/16th the price of the Raytheon version.

Iran does not, in fact, have Tomahawks.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar
RAJU: Footage shows an American missile likely destroyed the Iranian girls' school. Will the US accept any respons-- TRUMP: Well, I haven't seen it. I will say that the Tomahawk, which is one of the most powerful weapons around, is sold and used by other countries. Iran has some Tomahawks.

@Amena__Bakr does that translate to: "Entering the bathroom is not the same as leaving it" ?

@johnkonrad You need to go to the DoD press meeting like that once. If Fetterman can wear the hoodie, XCaptain can go roll in like that. Spill some bunker fuel on the pants before you go.

@ErikSTownsend @Rory_Johnston @anasalhajji Not as famous, but can he turn wood into pieces of art like the master?

.@Rory_Johnston is a must-follow for energy market investors. Not as famous as @anasalhajji, but definitely the up-and-comer to watch carefully. Both are essential follows for anyone serious about oil & gas markets.
Congrats on hitting 60k, Rory! Well deserved.

👀 wow, 60k Hello, new followers! I’ve been an oil market analyst for a dozen years and publish independently at Commodity Context—check bio and subscribe! I love oil data, visualizations, maps, and I’m honest to God not normally this alarmist 🫡 Welcome aboard, oil watchers

@anasalhajji I know it’s bad if you are saying that. How long does it take to start things back up?

@mercoglianos @SullyCNBC @PowerLunch There is one crazy captain @johnkonrad out there that would. I think he may have snuck over there, saw a ship on AIS that was called "IDGAF", thats a pretty strong tell.
English
@SullyCNBC @PowerLunch Do you know any mariners personally?
I do, and I can tell you that they will run the Strait.
Just make sure you are giving them their danger pay.
English
Bigger issue is even if this new insurance pool gets done ..
will crews be willing to risk it to make a run for it? Will shipowners try to force it? This is life and death.

Ship captain here.
I’ve spent more time being tracked, followed, hunted, and observed by submarines than 99.999% of people on this app… and I’ve read dozens of books on how those encounters end.
So should the U.S. Navy have rescued those IRGC sailors?
Here’s my take 👇

BREAKING: US Treasury eases oil sanctions on the Kremlin, allowing Indian refineries to buy the millions of barrels of Russian crude on floating storage until early April (the new rules cover all the oil already loaded in a tanker by March 5, 2026). Massive win for Putin.
Javier Blas@JavierBlas
The oil market is already tapping the SPR. No, no that SPR. I mean the Russian (and some Iranian) floating barrels that, effectively, are acting as the market's first line of defence. If anything, their impact is faster than the SPR, because they are already in tankers.
English
@Amena__Bakr He will be filling it in a couple weeks when oil goes on sale.
English
Trump is not looking to tap into the SPR… why would he when prices aren’t budging past 85 max ? #OOTT
