Wednesday's Final Word
President Trump's strikes on Iran were triggered by the downing of a US helicopter, but he had been growing frustrated with the lack of response from Iran to his latest offer. Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian stated that threats to Iranian infrastructure are a sign of desperation, and Iran will stand firm against any pressure or threat. The US has been taking millions of barrels of oil at night during the Iran blockade, which may explain why prices at the pump have begun drifting downward in the US.
