🚨 MUST READ FOR EVERYONE $ALICE
THIS IS THE REASON US IS ATTACKING IRAN.$BONK
It has very little to do with regime change.
It has very little to do with nuclear weapons too. $POWER
The major reason is the natural resources Iran holds.
Here's everything Iran currently has:
- 208 billion barrels of Crude Oil worth $13.9 trillion, 3rd largest in the world.
- 1200 trillion cubic feet of Natural Gas worth $3.18 trillion, 2nd largest in the world.
- 320 metric tons of Gold worth $54 billion.
Apart from this, Iran also has a substantial amount of Silver, Copper, Iron ore, Lithium, Zinc and rare resources.
As per current estimates, these all have a combined worth of $27.3 trillion.
This is more than China's and Germany's GDP and almost 80% of the US GDP.
If the US somehow gains control of this, it'll have absolute control over several natural resources.
