Iran tells world to get ready for oil at $200 a barrel

They are attempting MAD but without nukes. The problem is that while the US seems to have obliterated Iran, they have no endgame plan on actually accomplishing a regime change. They thought about arming Kurdish Iranians but wen't against the idea, now we seem to be in a perpetual state of "it is over / it is not over".

ATH was <$148 and we're not even breaching COVID highs and we're down ~30% from three days ago.

That would be a foolish move for Iran, but they seem to be making a lot of foolish moves. Isn’t there a saying about never throwing away the moral high ground? As though they are trying to out-stupid Netanyahu’s man in the whitehouse.
