what will happen to the gas price if USA attack Iran? what are we going to do if it gets more than $5 per lit?
407678
obviously the gas price goes up and it could even become more than $5 per liter,,,, in this case the price of everything would go up, cloths, food, ..because of the high shipping costs, people in north America and Europ would have a hard time making a living.\nthe best solution is to move down to some rural area in California where getting food is not much problem. we could ride horses....... or instead we could make another form of fuel before going to war with Iran....however it bring us to the question of....why should US attack Iran if there is no more need for oil!....

Let me help.  I received this info this morning: \n\n"TEHRAN, Iran — Iran has said it would offer cash incentives to travel agencies to encourage Western tourists to visit the country, giving a premium for Americans, the official Islamic Republic News Agency reported Tuesday.\nThe proposal is Iran's latest bid to reach out to ordinary Americans in an attempt by the Islamic Republic's political leadership to show that its quarrel is with the U.S. administration — not U.S. citizens.\n\nIt came as the United Nations Security Council deliberates a draft resolution that would impose sanctions on Iran for its disputed nuclear program.\n\n"Iran's tourism department will pay $20 per person to those who attract European or American tourists to the country," the agency quoted Mohammed Sharif Malakzadeh, deputy head of the department, as saying.\n\nVisitors from other countries would earn travel agents $10 a tourist, Malakzadeh said."\n\nIf you could persuade your travel agent to split this powerful financial incentive with you, I'm sure that it would go a long way to helping pay for the trip!

Yeah,  of course.  That's why gas is only 25 cents a gallon.  Isn't it wonderful?  Maybe we can attack China next,  call it something about nuclear weapons and communism,  but it will really be for knock-off designer handbags and ceramic animal trinkets.

Iranian Oil Bursae is in EURO >> in other words  the Iranians are selling their Oil & Gas in Euro .. it will no doubt affect the US-Economy & the value of the Greenbacks\n\nSaddam had started selling Iraqi oil in EU .. and the US invaded Iraq because of this .. and not b/c of WMD ..

GAS WAR - an idea that WILL work\n\nThis was originally sent by a retired Coca Cola executive. It came from one of his engineer buddies who retired from Halliburton. It ' s worth your consideration.\n\nJoin the resistance!!!! I hear we are going to hit close to $4.00 a gallon by next summer and it might go higher!! Want gasoline prices to come down? We need to take some intelligent, united action. Phillip Hollsworth offered this good idea.\n\nThis makes MUCH MORE SENSE than the "don't buy gas on a certain day" campaign that was going around last April or May! The oil companies just laughed at that because they knew we wouldn't continue to "hurt" ourselves by refusing to buy gas. It was more of an inconvenience to us than it was a problem for them.\n\nBUT, whoever thought of this idea, has come up with a plan that can really work. Please read on and join with us! By now you're probably thinking gasoline priced at about $1. 50 is super cheap.  Me too! It is currently $2.79 for regular unleaded in my town. Now that the oil companies and the OPEC nations have conditioned us to think that the cost of a gallon of gas is CHEAP at $1.50 - $1.75, we need to take aggressive action to teach them that BUYERS control the\nmarketplace..... not sellers. With the price of gasoline going up more each day, we consumers need to take action. The only way we are going to see the price of gas come down is if we hit someone in the pocketbook by not purchasing their gas! And, we can do that WITHOUT hurting ourselves. How? Since we all rely on our cars, we can't just stop buying gas. But we CAN have an impact on gas prices if we all act together to force a price war.\n\nHere's the idea:\nFor the rest of this year, DON'T purchase ANY gasoline from the two biggest companies (which now are one), EXXON and MOBIL. If they are not selling any gas, they will be inclined to reduce their prices. If they reduce their prices, the other companies will have to follow suit.\n\nBut to have an impact, we need to reach literally millions of Exxon and Mobil gas buyers. It's really simple to do! Now, don't wimp out at this point...keep reading and I'll explain how simple it is to reach millions of people.\n\nI am sending this note to 30 people. If each of us sends it to at least ten more (30 x 10 = 300) ... and those 300 send it to at least ten more (300 x 10 = 3,000)...and so on, by the time the message reaches the sixth group of people, we will have reached over THREE MILLION consumers. If those three million get excited and pass this on to ten friends each, then 30 million people w! ill have been contacted! If it goes one level further, you guessed it..... THREE HUNDRED MILLION PEOPLE!!!\n\nAgain, all you have to do is send this to 10 people. That's all. (If you don't understand how we can reach 300 million and all you have to do is send this to 10 people...Well, let's face it, you just aren't a mathematician. But I am, so trust me on this one.)\n\nHow long would all that take? If each of us sends this e-mail out to ten more people within one day of receipt, all 300 MILLION people could conceivably be contacted within the next 8 days!!!\n\nI'll bet you didn't think you and I had that much potential, did you?\n\nActing together we can make a difference. If this makes sense to you, please pass this message on. I suggest that we not buy from EXXON/MOBIL UNTIL THEY LOWER THEIR PRICES TO THE $1.30 RANGE AND KEEP THEM DOWN.\n\nTHIS CAN REALLY WORK.

Are you serious?Iran is the world's fourth largest oil-exporter.If the international community does anything to Iran the latter will stop exporting oil and then what do you think will happen to the world economy?It'll burst like a party balloon.And that's worse for the world isn't it?This whole is issue is politically motivated and once oil-prices start feeling the heat it'll all be sorted out amicably.Its all about the money my friend-noone gives a fu-k about whether or not our Yiddish friends are feeling secure down there.In any case Iran won't have the balls to stir up some nuclear bullsh*t with the Israelis-if they do Mossad will have Teheran levelled before you can say "Zionist Crusader"!

Used to be $2.21 as I remember. I saw yesterday the gas station near my house was $2.33. The low gas prices arguement was used by the GOP as a campaign tool and now they still lost. So, it is rising again.

It is already here.  But we don't want to change and continue to use gasoline like when it was cheaper.  It will start affecting how we travel and live when the price continue to increase.  We continue to buy these oil from Iran (not our friend) and support their government through our need for oil.

Everyone, Settle down. Lets say if the us does attack Iran with in the next few months... there will be a few issues to arrise. \n\nHow can we maintain a constant shipment of oil and goods through the persian gulf?\n\nWhat will be the toll of a full scale in vasion on Iran?\n\nWill Isreal play a part?\n\nNow, considering our current locations you have to realize we are surronding Iran. East- Afghan. West- Iraq SW- Persian Gulf (Which contains US Navy Bases) We have an extremely good capability on the assault on Iran because there Ballistic Missile program doesnot hurt the US (It can really successfully target Isreal and european countries. And due to lack of accuracy there missiles can not really successfully target iraqi or afghan US bases though possible) \n\nThe actual use of US Soldiers will most likely be minimal in comparison to the Iraq effort. Most of Iran's time money and effort has gone into three things, Ballistic Missiles, Navy equip and Nuclear engineering. They are still very Third world in other aspects of military life. \n\nNow, as far as China is concerned they have recently tried to deal with russia in regards to oil (very lil US oil comes from Iran) so they can circumvent Iran. Also, China is trying to increase Sino-US relations as far as terrorism is concerned so they will most likely not take any sort of side in this conflict.\n\nRussia, they might be overall neutral but slightly more Bias towards Iran due to the fact they still have deep issues with the US. They might help Iran but the aid would be minimal incase of conflict because they do not want any open-press coverage of something like that.\n\nIsreal- The questions with Isreal's involvement are more less simple but the answers are TBD. Will Iran try to strike Isreal in last effort? Will Syria get involved(with their own goal ie: taking back the homeland) if Isreal does?\nHow will Jordan come into play, or will they not?\n\nSaudi Arbia, UAE, Quatar, Bahrain and Oman- All of these countries success lie with in US/european markets. I whole heartedly beleive they will try to stir some propaganda about this NOT being a religous war so they can gain more money and profits. Thank god for greed.\n\nPakistan- Due to the border relation with Iran will Pakistan be Neutral? They cant go against the US, They are to close of an alie. But If they did non can gurantee India would not attack them and end them for good.\n\nThats all I am gonna cover if you have any other ?'s, as always, Just Ask! : )

I don't think saturation nuking will work, as that they won't penetrate the underground bunkers. The USA will just have to invade and risk yet another Vietnam. The invaders will all become junkies (20% of Iranians are on hard drugs) and when they lose they will have to admit millions of Iranian Shiite refugees into the USA. It's tough, I know, but there is really no alternative. The USA must stay the course. They can't let the terrorists claim victory.

Iran is planning to stop using the U.S. dollar and will be selling oil in euroes.  This will cause the dollar to be devalued and could cause a negative effect on our economy.

It's delicate. My guess is that Iran will take Russia's offer for enrichment at least for now. I'm quite sure their research will go on, which means sooner or later someone's gonna call their bluff and then it won't matter whether they've been onest about the purpose of their program.\nThe sad thing is Iran still has the NPT and international law on it's side since none of the accusers managed to prove its program is -not- entirely civilian. \nWar right now would be damn inconvenient for US since to most neutral countries it will appear and incessant bullying and some might rally behind Iran, Syria and Venezuela.\nUS can't exploit Iraq oil just yet. Of course US companies will be preffered for drilling and/or refining Iraq oil but they have to wait for the situation in Iraq and give the appearance of elections.

I doubt if a WW III would happen, however if the US attacks Iran it can anticipate the following things. \nWe will start losing oil tankers in the gulf,  The war in Iraq will boil over into something many times worse than it is now, terrorits acts from groups such as Hezbollah and covert Iranian operations will happen with great frequency, and maybe in Chicago, New York, and Los Angeles.\nThe price of oil will become astronomical and tens of thousands will be no longer employed as the airlines, hotels and spin off industries go into bankruptcy.  Oil will go from 100 to 300 dollars a barrel.\n\nAnd the sad thing is there in no need for the US to do this.

Answer to Question one:  There is strife in Nigeria and Iraq driving gas prices up.  There is also a potential nuclear war brewing between the US and Iran, the forth largest producer.  For some insane reason, the fact that oil prices are skyrocketing isn't causing the powers that be to think twice about causing another war.  Finally, China and India are growing in economic capacity and need oil to build their economies.  \n\nAnswer 2:  Because the insurgents are attacking the oil infrastructure in Iraq and that's Imperialism.  I guess the US could exact tribute from Iraq, but were they to do that, the country would have a revolution within a few minutes and then they wouldn't sell any oil to the US.

I would just like to start off by saying that Bush has no power over the price of gas.  This last gas spike was calsed by Iran uping the price of there gas.  Becuse they know the U.S. don't want them to have WMD.  So they up our's and give cheaper gas to countrys they want or there side.\n\nWhen the gas price goes up the people who make the gas dont make more monney.
