Iran has apparently decided to "go out with a bang" if the conflict resumes and word from two separate sources with direct access to Iran Revolutionary Guard Corps meetings/communication, report the following:
Professor Sayed Mohammad Marandi of Tehran University, who has been making the rounds in Western media, has been instructed to say:
"Everyone should immediately leave the UAE, Qatar, Bahrain, Saudi, and Kuwait. Sailors on all ships in the Persian Gulf must also prepare to evacuate their ships. This is especially urgent for ships near the Strait of Hormuz, which will be destroyed first. Time is running out."
A Third Intel source reports that if the conflict resumes, Iran is planning a single coordinated strike that could wipe out 32% of global oil supply.
The targets, according to this Third Source:
- - Yanbu pipeline in Saudi Arabia
- - Fujairah oil facility in the UAE
- - Full Houthi closure of the Bab el-Mandeb Strait
If even half of this plays out alongside the ongoing Hormuz blockade, the global energy market won’t adjust gradually and may collapse all at once.
Bab el-Mandeb alone handles roughly 6 million barrels a day.
Fujairah is one of the world's largest bunkering hubs. Bunkers are what they call oil storage facilities.
Yanbu is the artery connecting Saudi oil fields to the Red Sea.
If Iran hits all three simultaneously this will result in a structural rupture that would take months to stabilize, if it stabilizes at all.
Hal Turner Analysis and Remarks
The fact that Professor Marandi has been told to publicly tell citizens in Gulf Countries to "immediately evacuate" indicates to most within the Intel Community that Iran will target the desalination plants that provide fresh water to those countries.
If those Desalination plants are hit, there is only minimal reserve water capacity, and people will be FORCED to evacuate for lack of water. That would cause the complete shut down of the oil and refining industries (and most everything else) in those countries, for months.
The fact that Professor Marandi has also been specifically told to warn ship crews in the Persian gulf to "prepare to evacuate quickly" means their ships will be attacked early in any resumed conflict.
This puts all other Maritime shipping on-notice to stay away, and also signals a catastrophic environmental disaster being potentially unleased in the Persian Gulf if numerous full oil tankers are hit and sunk.
Clearly the Iranians have been busy making enormous plans. But enormous plans usually have multiple points of potential failure.
The world cannot simply absorb actions such as these.
European Central Bank Chief Christine LaGarde is now publicly warning of fuel rationing in Europe, and FOOD SHORTAGES because one-third (1/3rd) of global fertilizer production comes from the Persian Gulf area and is presently OFFLINE. She makes clear that farmers worldwide can't get enough fertilizer to have maximum crop yields this year.
The UAE is heading into massive financial trouble. They have requested additional "Dollar-Swap" lines to continue operations or else, they say, they will have to start accepting currencies OTHER THAN the U.S. Dollar for oil and petrochemical transactions.
Given the fact that the expiration of the ceasefire is presently scheduled for 8:00 PM Eastern US Time (GMT -0400) tomorrow night, it seems we will all likely know by tomorrow night if the fighting is going to resume.
If Iran does successfully attack the oil production in Gulf countries, and takes a total of 32% of global oil supply offline, then nothing can prevent global economic collapse.
I earnestly hope you've got emergency food. Water. Medicines you need to live on. An Electric generator to keep your refrigerator cold and a light or two on in your home. Spare fuel for that generator. Flashlights for each family member or for each room in your home, with SPARE BATTERIES for those lights. An AM/FM/SW radio with spare batteries for news and information. A way to cook if the grid goes down. A First-Aid kit for wounds. Communications gear like a CB or HAM radio to communicate if the grids all go down.
If you wait to see what actually happens, before you stock-up and get properly equipped, you may find that everything you need has already been sold out.
I do NOT sell any of the things I mention above. I have ZERO monetary interest in recommending these things to you. I tell you because I want you to survive.
