Oil Surges on Fabricated Tensions as US Hawks Circle Iran
Oil prices have conveniently surged to a six-month high, hitting $72 a barrel this week, precisely as Washington ratchets up its bellicose rhetoric against Iran. This predictable pattern has enriched the usual suspects for decades. Remember the constant alarmism about Iranian nukes from figures like Benjamin Netanyahu, who has been claiming Iran is 'months away' from a nuclear weapon since 2002?
This recycled fear-mongering consistently correlates with market spikes. Donald Trump's recent ultimatum, demanding a nuclear deal within 15 days, is pure theater, ignoring the fact that it was the US that unilaterally abandoned the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) in 2018. Iran, meanwhile, honored its commitments for 14 months post-US withdrawal, a crucial detail corporate media
conveniently omits. The US has maintained 45 years of crippling sanctions and actively backed a 1953 CIA coup against Iran's democratically elected government, Dr. Mohammad Mossadegh, because he dared to nationalize his country's oil. This isn't about nuclear disarmament; it's about control over vital energy conduits and perpetual profit streams. Every threat, every deployed carrier group, funnels
money into the military-industrial complex and inflates commodity prices, benefiting the same old power brokers. The average US taxpayer, meanwhile, foot the bill for endless aggression.
