    Are Israeli and Jewish the same things? Is 47 a Christian, is America Christian? If America commits genocide on others, does the New Testament get rewritten?

    I haven't noticed any gas stations selling petrol to alternating even or odd license plate drivers...nor have I noticed long lines at the gas stations.
    Sample size = 1.
    Your mileage may vary.

    Depends if 47 is telling the story, but that also depends on both the day and even the time of the day as to just what the story is, shades of 1984 and double think

    You might be a mth or so early, but I expect it will be more along the lines of how much you are willing to pay per gal

    Not me.
    I have a 2-mile commute, a bicycle and a golf cart.
    The rest of my fuel use is optional - so I really do not CARE all that much.
    Having lived through more than one major hurricane and the 70's, AND the 80's....it's been MY experience that long lines and shortages result from a lack of availability rather than the spot price of oil.

    The PRC (People's Republic of California) informs me that there are still too many cars in the road when gas is well over $5 a gallon - so fuel prices are like taxes.

    People pay what they HAVE to pay. ;)

    I too share the ‘good news’ especially in Mathew 25 that is too often honored by its absence.

    The 47 one man created tax is over a dollar per gallon, and for all necessities people care about. $5.39 for regular at Costco, the cheapest. The man seems to be emptying the oil reserves to try and save face.

    What, you thought he was doing that for the good of the US citizens? I wonder when cashed up individuals with 44 gal drums of petrol ( 54 gal over there?) will start to advertise on Evil Bay they have petrol available, and start on auction .....

    How hard did Hitler try to exterminate the Jews, and he didn't succeed, bombing Iran will just generate more American haters till it reaches a point that having any sort of an accent that sounds American, would put those people as a target if the dared to leave the USA .... then of course, there are the ones already in the US, with open access to as many guns as they can buy .....

    I'm guessing DJT is hoping they never produce bug sized drones that use facial recognition with just enough explosives to put him out of action at his next game of golf .... a fly buzzing around the eyes, then boom

    Oil refineries and everything else has been and is still being bombed all over the middle east and in Russia. And for prices to be low, these things need to be active. It will take decades to rebuild all that stuff, and the only reason prices are low at this point is because of the stockpiles.

    Trump was fooled by Bibi’s lies.
    He genuinely believed that killing Iran’s Supreme Leader would force Iran to surrender.
    That way, his support would skyrocket.
    He now has painfully realized that Iran is not Venezuela.

    the matrix is based on the manufacture of scarcity
    The matrix is rich oil monopolies and monopolists,
    like French Total SA,
    brit British Petroleum (BP),
    dutch Royal Dutch Shell (Shell) ,
    or american Rockefellers owned Exxon Mobil (Standard oil monopoly).
    Oil and gas is abiotic and is produced by the planet.
    Oil is a hydrocarbon , "fossil fuel" is a meme that has no proofs.
    There's an unlimited amount of Hydrocarbons on the planet, oil is the 2nd largest liquid after water.
    It's just a group of globohomo oligarchs and oil barons that control it who create fake scarcity.

    This is 100% planned and it's how they will do the great reset. "Oh sorry no more fuel because Iran, now we have to take all your freedoms and put you in the pod to eat the bugs, it's the only way. You'll own nothing and be happy".
