@_InfoGram_ All of the above

[Douglas Macgregor @DougAMacgregor]

BREAKING: Pentagon approaches GM, Ford and other large auto manufacturers to discuss shifting from auto development to weapons and military supply production.

@JimFergusonUK So the strategy is to stop a blockade you must blockade the blockade yourself to continue the blockade? Got it

[BigAgraKillture @bigbconx]

@Portenio1950 @Sauronlordking I’m curious as to what similarities you see between Australia and Argentina post world war 1. Because I honestly can’t. Australia is in no way anywhere near pre Milei Argentina and has not been similar to Argentina since the Great Depression

@QBCCIntegrity @IanBatchelor11 Where are you getting this number? I’m seeing 4.58 billion litres a month based on 55 billion litres a year. Just curious

🚨🚨🚨 Irán acaba de ofrecer a Europa el acuerdo del estrecho de Ormuz. No se imaginan la magnitud del desastre que ha desatado.

En apariencia, Irán ha ofrecido a la Unión Europea el derecho de paso por el estrecho de Ormuz. Parece un simple gesto diplomático. Pero no lo es.

Esto es una bomba de relojería financiera.

El 20% del petróleo total del mundo pasa por el estrecho de Ormuz.
La factura energética de Europa aumentó en 16.200 millones de dólares en tan solo 30 días.
El precio del gas natural en Europa aumentó un 100%, mientras que el precio del petróleo aumentó un 60%. El precio del diésel es de 200 dólares por barril.
Las reservas de dólares cayeron del 70% al 56,9% en 25 años.

⚠️ Si Europa acepta este acuerdo, pagará en euros, no en dólares.
⚠️ Un solo acuerdo petrolero importante que no se realice en dólares sería suficiente para demostrarle al mundo que es posible.

El petrodólar es el sistema financiero más poderoso de la historia. Nacido en 1974, obligó a todos los países del mundo a mantener dólares para comprar petróleo. Este es el fundamento del dominio financiero estadounidense.

Si este sistema colapsa, el crecimiento del grupo BRICS se acelerará, los estados del Golfo reconsiderarán su posición, la demanda del dólar se desplomará y Estados Unidos no podrá financiar su deuda de 34 billones de dólares en condiciones favorables.

El miembro del consejo del Banco Central Europeo, Panetta, declaró el 2 de abril: "Aunque la guerra con Irán termine, el daño ya está hecho".

Te están mostrando una guerra por las armas nucleares y la seguridad regional.

No te están mostrando que la verdadera guerra gira en torno a quién tiene derecho a imprimir la moneda de reserva mundial.

← Irán cierra el estrecho de Ormuz a los Estados Unidos y lo abre a la Unión Europea mediante acuerdo.

← La Unión Europea, exhausta y agobiada por la deuda, está considerando seriamente aceptar el acuerdo.

← El acuerdo se concluye en euros o yuanes, no en dólares.

← Todos los países están monitoreando la situación: los países BRICS, los países del Sur Global y los países del Golfo, observando lo que está sucediendo.

← "Si la Unión Europea puede superar al dólar, nosotros también podemos."

← La demanda de dólares disminuye. Las reservas se desploman. La inflación aumenta en Estados Unidos.

Si Estados Unidos es tan poderoso, ¿por qué la Unión Europea consideraría un acuerdo con el país que Estados Unidos está bombardeando?

Silencio absoluto.

Esto ya no es solo una guerra en Oriente Medio.
Esto es un ataque directo contra el petrodólar.

Prepárense bien.

@QBCCIntegrity How is this controversial? The straight was open when he started the war, it’s been closed because of the war.

[BigAgraKillture @bigbconx]

@Matt_Camenzuli Definitely time to pursue both options and not be so singularly focused on technology that clearly can’t power our nation yet. This isn’t zero sum, both can exist and benifit our nations energy security

[BigAgraKillture @bigbconx]

@BobBurn97207272 I will add I’m all for it if feasible and secures Australian energy security

[BigAgraKillture @bigbconx]

Are we suggesting these should be state owned and operated projects? Given current climate and capital costs in Australia this simply is not flnancially viable to any private entity? $10-15 billion capital outlay with no returns for 10+ years and depend on oil prices staying above $80pb

[Peter Zeihan @PeterZeihan]

There is a pipeline that connects Saudi Arabia's Eastern Province to a refinery town in Yanbu. Until this war, the highest throughput was approximately 2 million barrels per day. And now the Saudis have demonstrated that they've upgraded it to 7 million barrels per day.

As news goes for the region, this is positive because it suggests that of the 22 million barrels of crude oil a day that used to flow out of the Strait of Hormuz, we are now only looking at a reduction of about 10 to 12 BPD. The Iranians are getting their 2 million barrels per day, which is actually an increase from pre-war output levels through their sector of the Gulf. And then you've got this bypass pipeline that is taking about 7 million barrels per day and shipping it west.

We should take the good news where and while we can because I don't expect this to last. The Iranians have already proved that Yanbu is within range. Now, Houthis in Yemen are involved, and they have demonstrated the ability to use missiles and drones to hit things up and down the Saudi coast over and over and over again.

@NRLSilverback That’s USD though so $2.30 AUD

[BigAgraKillture @bigbconx]

@farms_sanderson Out of curiosity what would this cost you to implement? Would it be cost effective?

[BigAgraKillture @bigbconx]

@AngledCdl @GavinBrx @blowingtom2 Was an exaggeration, but cheap labour is an understatement. Black workers during the 50’s and 70’s when these plants were built were next to nothing.

[BigAgraKillture @bigbconx]

@Broufus Ah US crude is light sweet crude

[BigAgraKillture @bigbconx]

@GavinBrx @blowingtom2 A comparison to South Africa’s Sasol plants is flawed as these were built during the Apartheid era with heavy use of slave labour… cheap capital

[BigAgraKillture @bigbconx]

@GavinBrx @blowingtom2 Curious, having looked into this previously it seems this option is simply not feasible with Australian capital costs. How would you propose the Aus gov implements this?
