Biden: US is discussing Israel striking Iran oil facilities
globalreutersOctober 3, 20241 Mins read The President said the the US is discussing Israel striking Iran oil facilities, according to Bloomberg.
There is some important nuance in this statement:
Biden was asked if he would support the US supporting Israel striking Iran’s oil facilities. Biden responded: We are discussing that.
So it sounds to me like they are discussing whether they would support it or not. WTI is up 5% on the comment but I think there is a good chance it gets walked back.
