But that threat could come from anywhere, though, which I think is the problem.
It's like the chance of that happening is why they won't get insured.
So how would the U.S.
go about removing that threat?
It's not going to come from Saudi Arabia.
No, but I mean, you could send drones from anywhere, from Iran.
Exactly.
I don't think this ends while that regime is in power.
I think you can open up the Strait in the short run at tremendous cost.
You can come with some deal, and they agree to stop shooting for a while, at which point you've lost, at which point you've handed them perpetually the power to shut it down whenever they want.
And if the U.S.
is willing to go along with that, you might as well send Xi Jinping the keys to Taiwan.
So we are actually on the edge of a no way out.
The U.S., I think, and you think, cannot just give in, have a short-run deal.
They stop shooting for a little while.
We get to the midterms.
No, because then we have lost strategically a tremendous amount.
They can't give in either because they want to get up there the next morning, and they are willing to murder their people in enormous quantities in order to stop anything that comes up because of the economy.
So there's a scenario here where once all the oil tankers that are on the sea have reached port, the oil situation gets really bad for the rest of the world, not so bad for the U.S.
because we make it, and things are really tough all around.
