Trump Eyes Iranian Oil Amid Escalating Middle East Tensions

Web Slinger's Take on Trump's Oil Talk

Alright True Believers your friendly neighborhood Spider Man here swinging in with my take on this whole Iran oil situation. So President Trump's thinking about uh 'taking the oil' in Iran? Reminds me of that time Doc Ock tried to siphon energy from the city – not a good look folks. And comparing it to Venezuela? That's like comparing Aunt May's wheatcakes to Green Goblin's pumpkin bombs – both technically food but worlds apart in deliciousness and you know not trying to destroy everything.

Kharg Island: A Very Risky Business

Apparently there's talk of sending troops to Kharg Island. One source is saying it'd be 'very risky.' No kidding. I mean I swing through New York City fighting supervillains every other Tuesday and even I think that sounds like a bad idea. Sounds like we need to analyze the Conflict of Interest Witch Hunt Continues Against Great American Business Deal so we can have more perspective of what is going on.

Crude Awakening: Oil Prices Surge

Of course all this talk is sending oil prices soaring. Great. Just what we need. Last time oil prices went crazy I had to sell my Spider Cycle to pay for Aunt May's glaucoma medication.

Pentagon Preps for Ground Conflict: Oh Joy

The Pentagon's prepping for weeks of ground conflict with thousands of troops heading to the region. This is exactly what Dr. Connors warned me about when he was talking about his formula. More troops means more potential for well you know conflict. And conflict usually involves explosions property damage and me having to explain to J. Jonah Jameson why I destroyed half a city block. Again.

Kuwait Under Fire: Desalination Plants Targeted

And now critical infrastructure in Kuwait is under attack. Desalination plants of all things. Those plants are vital for drinking water. Seriously attacking those is low even for someone like Venom. This whole situation is spiraling faster than I can web swing around the Empire State Building. Someone needs to step in and maybe just maybe that someone is me. After I finish this chili dog.
