Saudi production cost of oil is very low, the oil minister is in a video talking about 5 dollars per barrel. They need oil prices at least 50 dollars per barrel within a stated output per day to sustain the govt and its overly generous state subsidies eg education, funding wahabbism worldwide reverse osmosis plants, electric power etc.

Fracking is expensive, dig wells, pour chemicals then pump the oil out of always. Unlike simply digging a perpetual well once and pumping it out.

Increasing world supply decreases oil prices, making fracking more difficult to invest in. But frackers were able to cut production costs to 29 dollars a barrel eg by horizontal drilling making them competitive in oil prices above 50$ per barrel. Cutting production costs means being more efficient and more production.

You have a gift of not answering questions while still writing a lot. The question is why did US oil imports from Saudi increase?

BRICKED. grin

These countries are called developed countries for a reason.

Even if they weren't bricked like the few ones outside the airport, these equipment won't last 6 months in the hands of the Taliban without support from the US or other Western powers. They do not have parts you can buy at Alaba international market.

If the Afghan army were still in control, there would be regular maintenance on them to keep them working.


Central Command head General Kenneth McKenzie said 73 aircraft that were already at Hamid Karzai International Airport were “demilitarized,” or rendered useless, by US troops before they wrapped up the two-week evacuation of the Taliban-controlled country.

Those aircraft will never fly again… They’ll never be able to be operated by anyone,” he said.

“Most of them are non-mission capable to begin with. But certainly they’ll never be able to be flown again.”

He said the Pentagon, which built up a force of nearly 6,000 troops to occupy and operate Kabul’s airport when the airlift began on August 14, left behind around 70 MRAP armored tactical vehicles — which can cost up to $1 million apiece — that it disabled before leaving, and 27 Humvees.

The vehicles “will never be used again by anyone,” he said

The US also left behind the C-RAM system — counter rocket, artillery, and mortar — that was used to protect the airport from rocket attacks.

The system helped fend off a five-rocket barrage from the Islamic State on Monday.

“We elected to keep those systems in operation up until the very last minute,” before the last US aircraft left, McKenzie said.

“It’s a complex procedure and time-intensive procedure to break down those systems. So we demilitarize those systems so that they’ll never be used again.”

wrong, no withdrawal under fire ever went according to plan because you can not be in control of all the determining factors at all times, that is the reality of military engagements. You can make your best plans and hope your subordinates are capable enough to improvise on the fly when any aspect of your plans deviates from parameters.
You're not in military logistics, supply and transport as they are called here in Nigeria and yet you make bold claims about the efficacy of implementing plans when means are scarce and demand is greater than supply and humans have to be prioritised.
And how will stopping the entry of immigrants at land borders have saved these dogs? I prioritise humans over them anytime even convicted afghans.

And yes this has everything to do with buhari as we are both Nigerians resident in Nigeria receiving the short end if the stick of his misgovernance and honestly I am ashamed to be seen picking the speck in America's eye while ignoring the gigantic log in ours
Brilliant submission.

a lot of things don't make the news in port Harcourt bros, if you know you know, except the victims are politically significant and/or visible or the act particularly gruesome, every other death is just Tuesday so if you don't know don't claim ph or anywhere else in the country is particularly peaceful. In naija life has lost premium and we are now immuned to the shock of deaths and killings and that is just sad

While Biden is taking his "victory lap" on the botched Afghanistan withdrawal the rest of the world are like shocked embarassed lipsrsealed undecided cry Hundreds of interpreters, American citizens still left behind. Even so called CNN and MSM in general are beginning to come to their senses now. People are seeing the real Biden folks have been warning d world about, months before the election. Biden is like the emperor who's now dancing naked on the streets while still bragging to have done a great job.

Elections have consequences


When many were concerned about Trump's win in 2016,many forgot that the supreme court was a big issue now see the consequences the conservative supreme court is yet to weigh in on the Texas abortion ban that has gone into effect and twitter is wild dishing out blames.

The supreme court doesn't care about precedence anymore and will obviously try to overturn Roe

How many more reasons does Biden need to expand the supreme court.Democrats don't know how to act a part of me wants them to lose in the midterms but then I am scared of the GQP taking back congress democrats are so spineless.

Biden is no worse than the Taliban apologist here that tries to make excuses for them. The likes of Tdotbluejaysssss who post crap about how they are nice and will let women go to school and others who run to their defence all the time. I mean sanpipita and others here. It's funny to watch though.

As long as they limit the madness to Texas, no problem. I think child support payments should immediately start after 6 weeks in Texas as well.

It's very easy for some to sit on the fence, criticize and judge others. We were all here when Ben went for livelystone. Then he went about on how he was a pastor or something similar. I remember Goodvibes jumping in to defend him from the unprovoked attack.
Like someone mentioned earlier. Livelystone. I use to be an overserver on this thread as well and slowly dipping my feets in. You can also start contributing effectively to this thread. Let's see how far you would go before they turn on you.
You think i don't comment on the thread?
I say my mind and leave, I don't do group things unless it is what I believe.

I have said it times without number about how I lean towards the Democratic party, that alone should show you that I am not on the fence but as usual, it is now based on me instead of the issues i raised.
The fact that I mean towards the Democratic party shouldn't make me not criticize when they do wrong or when people are insulting others by calling them poor or even angry that they shouldn't say anything because this has to do with America and they are in Nigeria. This thread was created for discussions about the US and everyone has a right to say their piece irrespective of how different from ours it may be.

By the way. I don't come here everyday, but when I do, I comment on the recent issues at hand, including the recent pull out from Afghanistan of which I said my piece and someone here almost tagged me as anti islam or anti immigration because I didn't align with the majority on everything.

Fear is what drove them to vote out Trump. Now they have more than just Trump, they have the fear of the supreme court added too LMAO.

The Texas bill is hilarious because as a taxi driver if the person you drive to hospital goes do an abortion you are likely to be sued, so tell me how a taxi driver is supposed to know what his passenger was going to do in a hospital, the driver could even be a pro lifer.

Texas is going to the dogs btw, they haven't had last of new gun laws now this.

Absolutely. The news is reverberating all over the US even though it happened in Texas - just one state.

This would be the news for a very very longtime. Stuff like this are very personal to Americans. It's like their liberty just got taken away from them by the GQP even though it's just in Texas.
