Poll: What's gonna happen with Israel vs Iran?

a) Iran responds with fake fireworks for show, life goes back to normal sanctions

b) Iran responds with a "real" retaliation and/or Trump blows Tehran to bits. Oil in Middle East is crippled. USA is brought into the fray. Hezbollah & Yemen Houthis join in.

c) Happy Times.. Trump & Iran strike a deal. Sanctions lifted

d) Full blown World War 3. Russia bombs Kiev off the map, China seizes Taiwan, North Korea hits South Korea.

e) Economic and political problems (like high oil prices and dropping stocks) force Donald Trump to backoff. This is like choice A, normal sanctions.

We're due a reset and China is itching to get that chip corner of the market. I'm going d.

world war isn't how to do a financial or political reset. and nobody should die over chinese chips

It was in WWII and no they shouldn't. They also shouldn't be fined for j walking but they are. China doesn't go by a moral compass. They go by what gives them the most control.

china getting more control?! when it's the US neocons seizing control by trying to start shit with them

Both are true my guy

C but I'm hoping Iran actually does have a nuke. Nukes are the ONLY way to ensure peace. Everyone needs them.

Forever war between US and Iranian insurgents, that ends as China finally attains a higher GDP per capita than the US.

Israel will no sooner obliterate Iran than our Pharma complex will allow a cure for cancer.

Sickness and War IS the business.

very true

very true. can't remain the economic leader while fighting

The early 2000s in the middle east definitely helped China's relative econeconomic rise during that period. Distracted in Iraq, we missed the rising power to the East.

Yes. The US also literally helped Iran in Iraq, with the same sect of Islam come to power
