Looks like we’re going in. Or it’s just a bluff to get Iran to negotiate. Stalemate now, but one move could send oil vertical fast

Defense officials told The New York Times that senior military leaders are considering deploying a brigade combat team from the U.S. Army’s 82nd Airborne Division, about 3000 paratroopers assigned to the Immediate Response Force (IRF), capable of deploying anywhere in the world within 18 hours, along with elements of the division’s headquarters at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, to support U.S. military operations in Iran.

This is week four of what now looks like a stalemate. This could go on indefinitely.

What could break this impasse is an invasion of Kharg Island and I think that Trump is now just buying time to get the pieces in place for the invasion. And that is what could spike oil to $150. Because you take Iran’s oil off the market and Hormuz remains offline and then the REAL pain trade begins globally.
