British-flagged? Does that mean it's really from Panama?

Seems our global foil encoiled a toiling oil hull in an attempt to despoil the oil and embroil the entire region into a rolling boil.

Can you flaggots stop taking this thread off course?

Interesting fact:  That ship offers only rum, buggery and the lash, only one of which is legal under sharia law while the other two are legal in England.

And oil prices don't care much.  Thank you, Texas oil frackers!

At least their ambassador and our prez are tite

[FartingMonk 3608]

Yeah.  One thing about the Brits.  They are like the Israelis.  Stuff like this you damn well better be prepared to get a kinetic response.

Well the brits seized an iran ship first in Gibraltar...so will they have a kinectic response to irans kinetic response 

 

 

[FartingMonk 3608]

And the Persians should've let that one slide, but because they are idiots they've now angered the British.  The ship they seized was sending illegal oil to Syria and got caught.  The Brits had broken away with the US on further embargoes due to the nuke deal and were only pursuing ships going into Syria.  Now they just got everyone back on the US side.

I truly hope so. They are so wrapped up about the brexit disaster and pm stepping down that I fear this will take a backseat for them.

[FartingMonk 3608]

That and they only have one warship out there right now.  That's why I said the Persians were dumb to piss them off.  Guess how many ships are going to be there in a few days?  More than one.
