This will push up the world price of oil and hasten $4+ per gallon gasoline in the US. Gee wouldn’t it be nice if we had a pipeline to deliver oil from our friend Canada that isn’t subject to these interruptions??? Thanks Obama.
I paid 4 today.
Don’t thank Obama, thank the citizens of America who elected him and every other green commie.
The west is going to be defeated by its own blithering stupidity and dishonesty, and that is all there is to it.
Round up all muslims and send them back. The money saved from welfare payments to these pigs, their sows and piglets will more than offset the money spent to keep them up.
Too bad the Democrats blocked the Keystone pipeline. One of their main excuses was that the oil was to be exported instead of used in the United States.
I’m sure that’s “cold comfort” to the Brits and the French at this point.
Exactly as the Russians and Chinese had planned.
Iran's oil will still be sold, just now it goes to China, and the Western Europeans pay more for less as their North Sea oil runs out.
Russia ships oil west at higher prices, and Eastern Europe cleaves unto Russia, NATO becomes a ball and chain.
Meanwhile, Egypt puts 19 Americans on trial and Hillary jumps ship to the World Bank.
Things are going well, indeed.
Hillary and the World Bank?? I think not. Bubba I could see the possibility.
.... So the Iranians will sell that oil to Russia and China....who will sell it to Europe.....

Good. Remind the sheeple why M.E. is not dependable.
Hillary Clinton tipped for World Bank job as Robert Zoellick steps down
Or via their new ally Pakistan...
China will buy all of the oil that she can get for new drivers and increasing manufacturing. India buys Iranian oil with rupees instead of dollars. Other nations are buying oil from Iran. Italy is still buying oil from Iran and is Iran’s main trading partner. The UK will probably get more oil from Turkey, Russia and others, if British diplomats don’t kow tow to the mullahs enough again to resume buying from Iran.
Maybe not. Ship owners can’t get insurance to haul Iranian oil.
