美国和以色列就是恐怖主义国家，到处轰炸其他国家的学校和医院，以色列有什么资格拥有核武器？
Sakura is an invasive species. What does the USA do to invasive species? 😈
All the bullshit coming out of Trump and his minions are truly breathtaking. The moment they set foot in a room, the whole place stinks.
Take the lead!
If the question is, Who's Winning/Who's Losing the Middle East War? Let us elucidate a Cannon of the 'Art of War' which reads, "THE ATTACKER MUST VANQUISH; THE DEFENDER NEED ONLY DEFEND.", you decide.
America doesn't need to trade with any states at home or overseas
America is in an auto pilot in social political and economic program
All international overseas imports is to be in storage for visual aid in the United States
United States is internal run systems, there is no interruption from overseas countries
United States top priority is to produce so many diversities of human being in facial deviation for future human trafficking at home and overseas
Right now America is a close society trying to pacification the world overseas for supremacy in all area of lifestyle
America is a tight small or large grouping of entity for better organizational programs competing against the world
That's right
America is a marketing firm for which can be used to achieved short and long-term goals or objectives in civil and noncivil means
America has been trespassing over many overseas states for which needs to be reviewed at home turf per se
America has over extended it interest at the expense of domestic mobility using the internet as a simple solutions for its population to be managed

Picture getting clearer, with hormuz bypass; about 10 mbd shortage.
High prices cause 10% less consumption means 3 mbd not needed. Spot purchases of 4mbd in April via USA, Brazil, Canada, West Africa. Increase pumping in ASEAN, China adds 2 mbd.
So not much problem.
Only issue now is Qatars LNG, and shortage of Panamax tankers. (600 fleet, needed to run at 17 knots instead of 13 knot)
😲👮♂️👽
China is crazy.
Many believe the U.S. is using the conflict with Iran as a way to weaken China.
So the world now wake up when feeling the pain? After decades of allowing the US and Israel to attack and invade whoever they wanted.
