Lots going on in the Middle East - terrorist leaders eliminated, Iran threatening revenge for an attack on their territory.
What implications do you see if it goes into a full on shooting match? How will this affect our lives here?
Interested to hear one's views.
And remember, keep comments appropriate and within our guidelines!!!

I expect oil prices will rise due to the rising tensions in the ME, and the corporate grubs here will use that as an excuse to raise prices here. If it really kicks off the sheep might stampede and empty the supermarket shelves with panic buying.

Petrol prices jumped as much as 27c/L in Brissy after the Trump shooting, how much will an escalation in the ME cause

Any article with the word 'shock' or 'chilling' etc is clickbait garbage.

A thought... I can only imagine some may feel that seemingly form nowhere, with little provocation other than a new interoperation of some passage of the Koran, will be seen as permission to provoke ..fill in the blank.. Possibly causing an international response from this type of ..blind side sucker punch..

Most Iranians are atheists. They generally pretend to go along with the extreme religious crap because it is so dangerous not to do so. The government there will know full when that should they get into conflict with another nation, the greatest threat will be an internal coup/revolution, not external invasion.

Have my gasifier designed, as time allows I'm constructing it, so I can give the flick to the oil companies and Govt turds who are trying to destroy people with high fuel prices.
Have 3 years + fuel in storage anyway, so really waiting for the other shoe to drop. Wish it would happen.
The Air Force have been overflying the valley the last few days at treetop level. Good to see them doing something rather than sitting in barracks playing cards.
In the end, gravity wins.
