As the last remnant of the IRGC technical structure and programs are wiped away swiftly we shift to the final phase of the operation and freeing Iran. Pahlavi offers some remarks on ideas to his return and the attempt at a transitional government to let Iran not just be free in name only, but to truly become a great nation and a key player in the longer term, praise Jesus.

That is the way I think it should be too, of course I am coming from being raised in Democratic Country. "We the people."

They should repent and accept Jesus as their Savior.
If a nation is “Great”, it’s because God allows it to be great!!

For clarity- I don't think anybody was saying it was Israel; Trump and Hegseth thought it was Iranian air defense missile that hit the school.

According to the caption of the original poster, the Tomahawk hits an IRGC facility near the school; while the re-poster says it hit the school.

The point is that the US was striking that area.

According to google AI:

Yes, sales are being negatively impacted by the 2026 Iran conflict due to major disruptions in shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, rising fuel prices, and supply chain bottlenecks. Businesses are facing higher logistical costs, potential delays, and reduced consumer spending, with sectors like automotive and retail already warning of headwinds.
CNBCCNBC +4
Key Impacts on Sales and Business:
  • Shipping & Logistics Disruptions: The conflict has severely hindered ocean and air traffic, with freight needing to bypass the Strait of Hormuz, which can add 10-14 days to transit times.
  • Rising Costs & Inflation: Spiking oil and gas prices are increasing transportation costs, which can lead to higher prices for goods and reduced profit margins.
  • Sector-Specific Hits:
    • Automotive: Companies like Stellantis, Toyota, and Hyundai face potential production issues due to part shortages and increased costs.
    • Retail: Companies with manufacturing or stores in the Middle East, such as Abercrombie & Fitch, are anticipating sales headwinds.
  • Consumer Sentiment: The economic uncertainty and higher gas prices are putting downward pressure on consumer demand.
  • Long-Term Risks: If the conflict continues, it could lead to inventory shortages, further inflationary pressures, and potential recessionary effects, causing companies to freeze spending.

While some alternatives exist for shipping, the conflict has created a "domino effect" on the global supply chain, causing immediate challenges for firms relying on the region.

About 3 weeks ago oil was at $62, futures have hit $115 $120

Here is a quick summary from Claude.ai of the impact of the spike in oil prices.

Key Economic Impacts


Inflation & Consumer Costs: The national average U.S. gas price reached $3.41 per gallon on Saturday, rising $0.43 in just one week. Al Jazeera That pace, if sustained, filters rapidly into transportation, food, and manufacturing costs across the entire economy.


Stagflation Risk: The combination of a weak economy and high inflation is a worst-case scenario for investors because the Federal Reserve has no good tool to fix both problems simultaneously. Lower interest rates can boost the economy but also make inflation worse — and the Fed's hands may be increasingly tied as spiking oil prices push inflation higher. NPR A negative jobs number combined with a big jump in oil prices has traders worrying about stagflation risks. NPR


Stock Markets: The S&P 500 dropped 1.3% Friday after a report showed U.S. employers cut more jobs than they created last month, capping Wall Street's worst week since October. NPR


Supply Chain Disruption: Oil and gas storage in Gulf facilities is rapidly filling, forcing oilfields in Iraq and Kuwait to cut production, with the UAE likely to follow. Oilfields forced to shut in could take days, weeks, or months to return to normal output even after the conflict ends. Al Jazeera


Potential Worst Case: Qatar's energy minister told the Financial Times that crude prices could reach $150 a barrel if tankers remain unable to pass through the Strait of Hormuz, which could "bring down the economies of the world." CNBC


The Bottom Line


The global economy is facing a classic oil shock scenario — supply disruption driven by geopolitical conflict rather than demand fundamentals. The longer the Strait of Hormuz remains closed, the deeper the impact on global trade, inflation, and growth. Analysts say if oil prices spike to $100+ and stay there, it could be too much for the global economy to withstand. NPR We're already there.

Among the wise and well informed, stagflation has been the predominant consensus for quite some time.

If the plates have been producing oil all this time, for millions of years, then that means the earth has an Oil layer.

I didn't read all the responses, so someone else might have already mentioned this.
The most recent information I found is that petroleum engineers found that many wells that ran dry in years past have started producing again. This has changed their dead dinosaurs theory of the source of crude. This also means that the oil being millions of years is only a theory without the scientific evidence to back it. It shouldn't surprise us though considering how many things passed for facts in our childhood have been disproven by now.

One thing I have confidence in is God's Word. We have the Spirit of Truth to guide us into all truth.
