Only a fool wants war. If this goes full metal jacket, there is no telling what unintended consequences will occur. More young men and women will die and for what.

Iran killed thousands in Syria, Lebanon, Iraq. Why do you give them a pass? Who exactly wants the war?

If they start lobbing scud missiles at each other in the mid-east the price of oil goes up. Explain to me how that's bad for western Canada. The only way this turns bad is if Trump sends troops in and that just isn't a believable scenario. He may deplete some of their drone and cruise missile stocks but boots on the ground? Not likely.

Id imagine Raytheon will be getting a large order in the next few days to replace all the Tomahawks that will be lumbering into Iran shortly...

Rules of engagement are pretty clear, that the US is well within its rights to attack the facilities that launched the Scuds.

Still not 100% clear if the missiles originated from sovereign Iranian soil or via militia forces inside Iraq. If those things came from Iran, I think it's fair to say the simmering feud is about to go HOT!

Really?
It's bad in a whole lot of ways, enjoy putting your crop in with $2/litre diesel, not to mention significant chance of nuclear holocaust with both sides having unstable leaders. If anyone thinks it's a one strike and done event, I say BS, the US cannot back down as would destabilize the entire world security, and Iran has nothing to lose and a whole lot of genetic hatred towards the west.

GDR, the US has tripled its domestic supply of oil since the Iraq invasion, Canada has added another million bbls to our own. The price wont move more than 5%.

Iran has everything to lose. US will barely notice.

You should know by now as a farmer commodity markets have no connection to actual supply and demand factors. Its merely a game played by the big boys to make money off the rest of us. All that is needed is a possible problem to manipulate the market.

You do realize the U.S. refineries are mostly built for cheap heavy middleast crude not western light crude.
