The cost of crude oil affects everything from the price of food at the supermarket to how much it costs to fill up your car.

    Iran produces 5% of global oil and there are a lot more oil producers in the region, which might end up getting involved. Saudi Arabia, UAE, Iraw, Kuwait and Qatar come to mind. We did see Iran attacking Saudi oil production a few years ago, so this might happen again. Hopefully not, but still.

      I fear something bad is going to happen. Idk if Iran can just sit around and let Isreal bomb them.

        There’s always been a proportionate response.

        They already launched drones against Israel and some of them got shot down by the Saudis.

          Some % of that was fake news

          Not by Saudi Arabia but Jordan. The drones don’t need to fly over Saudi airspace to reach Occupied Palestine, that would be an unnecessary detour.
