Iran Strikes Israel — Oil Prices SPIKE 20%, Your Inflation About to Get WORSE

Added: 2026-05-10

[00:00:00]There's a lot of following effects with this conflict in the Middle East other than oil prices. You already know that oil prices are going to affect and eventually bleed into the cost of everything that costs more to get components and parts around the world.

[00:00:12]But you're going to see that inflation, yes, but there's also other issues such as loss of internet across the whole Middle Eastern region. And of course, what I've been talking about for such a long time, but the famine. There's famine really rising up right now. We're going to get into all this. And also at the same time there's all these adjustments to the political horizon right now. There's so many nations coordinating with Iran right now to strengthen ties, make trade agreements.

[00:00:37]We'll get into all this in this video because there's a whole shift in the entire way the world works. Iran is being recognized by the world and then you'll see as there's so many diplomatic connections forming right now. Iran has stepped out into the role of a major power. Russia, China, Iran, America.

[00:00:55]Those are the major powers. Now, Iran's the new one. And all these adjustments are happening right now because the world is recognizing, wait a minute, Iran just stood up to America. There's no way for America to win this war.

[00:01:06]We're going to try, but it's just going to get ugly anything we do because the war was lost from day one when it began.

So a lot of things and I told you before about this internet comes from the satellites. Most of it goes through cables across the ocean floor which are impossible to defend. Soft target stretching for hundreds of miles.

[00:01:32]Iran could take out the cables close to the street of Hormuz and wipe out internet for a huge portion of the world. And I told you before, whenever a war seriously breaks out, there's going to be an increase in attacks against internet connectivity. Whether they take out satellites, a lot of nations can do this now, and they're planning for it in case they need to do it. And a lot of nations are focusing on taking out some of these underground cables, underwater cables that just lay across the bottom of the ocean. They're about this wide.

[00:02:02]And you just cut them with an anchor.

[00:02:04]And with the loss of internet, everything is now based in this world nowadays on the internet. There's an app for that. there's an app for that. What if there's no internet? It'll be like it's a 1970s again.

No one is accepting or realizing how significant the impacts of this massive energy interruption are going to be. We'll be dealing with this for probably the rest of our lives.

[00:02:32]You'll still be paying more for oil.

[00:02:34]You'll still be paying more for everything. The entire world is in a different place right now than it was two months ago.

[00:02:42]Everything is different now. You need to accept that and realize that you're going to be paying more for gasoline.

[00:02:46]And yes, it's a bad message, but you're going to be paying more for fuel for your vehicle. As far as I can see, there's all this diplomatic shuffling going on because Iran now is a major power. And all of a sudden, nations have realized they're going to be living right beside Iran 20 years from now, 50 years from now, 100 years from now.

[00:03:02]They're adjusting now, saying America was supposed to defend us and they didn't. So maybe we're at more risk because we're associated with America.

[00:03:09]So Iran's dropping bombs on us. So maybe we'll put our loyalty back to Iran.

[00:03:14]They'll leave us alone and we'll just deal with our fate here not being completely wiped out by Iranian drones.

[00:03:21]Beijing had talks between the Iranian and Chinese foreign ministers last week and they talked about five things, but most notably the fifth one I wanted to mention. China is talking about opposition to US sanctions on Iranian oil buyers. China's not happy with the arrangements right now with the difficulty getting oil out. And it's not against Iran. It's China against America. It's the American embargo that is becoming problematic for China. If this keeps going down this bad path, it's going to get really ugly. Iran and Qatar have had back channel diplomacy.

[00:03:50]That's why Iran approved passage for a Qatari LG tanker through the straight, which was viewed as a confidence building gesture. And there's a Pakistan Iran negotiation channel going on right now. Pakistan is facilitated exchanges over sanctions and shipping access. Even Iran and Russia are now dealing directly pretty closely together. Not that they were before, but it's just a lot more now. Every nation is readjusting to the new board, the new rules, the new setup that's going on right now. There's a lot of people, nations pulling towards Iran because they realize that Iran is powerful enough to remain exactly where they are. They keep on doing exactly what they're doing because paying 10 times more than any other military. We still don't have enough military to address the Iranian issue. The only ones who aren't understanding that or believing it are people who are just turning on the American news and staring at the screen and watching what they're telling you. It's all Saudi Arabia and Iran are having discussions now. And the one thing Saudi Arabia among many five things they're talking about, one of the main points that Saudi Arabia is trying to talk with Iran about is to avoid attacks from Iran onto Saudi Arabia's infrastructure. When Saudi Arabia decides to take out the water dissalination plants, the nuclear plants, few more of the ships trying to come out of the Gulf, there's going to be major global ramifications. You take out the deselination plants, you take out some of the sources of food, take out some of the sources of energy in the Middle East, there's going to be famine.

[00:05:14]There's going to be insecurity. There's going to be the summer season with the dust storms and the repressive heat all coming together at once and not a lot of fertilizer getting out to farmers. Now, we're going to have a global famine and even Egypt got into this. And the one you want to watch is if Turkey gets into any of this. But right now we're talking about Egypt and their concerns among many were preventing a wider Middle Eastern conflict. And behind the scenes, Oman is quietly playing a diplomatic role that not a lot of people are noticing because they're keeping a low profile, but they're still connected to Iran to try and work out some things that they can. Think of it this way.

[00:05:50]Iran has solidified in their place as a great power. It's over now. It's over now. Everyone's talking about, well, we're going to bomb them harder. We're going to bomb them more. We're going to bomb them harder. We're going to bomb them more. Granted, the war is lost.

[00:06:03]Just move on. Let's focus on where we are at and where we're going, not what we want to happen, that it's over. We lost. I promise that the quicker you recognize that, the better it'll be.

[00:06:15]Now, I want to make a point and say that everything to do with the famine, this is some information that is from before the war started. So, this is how bad it was. And then the war broke out and now there's no fertilizer access. And now there's insecurity of commodities and all of a sudden the famine is going to be a massive real thing.

[00:06:34]But this is all data I'm going to give you right now before the war broke out.

[00:06:38]Put that in perspective. Whatever numbers I give you, just assume that they're tremendously worse now and even more worse soon. Current global food insecurity and starvation statistics.

[00:06:49]266 million people across 47 countries faced acute food insecurity in 2025.

[00:06:57]One of the worst levels recorded in modern history. Now keep in mind that was last year. It is so much worse now.

[00:07:05]Global acute hunger has roughly doubled over the last decade.

[00:07:09]673 million people worldwide are estimated to be chronically hungry or undernourished. 2.3 billion people experienced moderate or severe food insecurity in 2024, including about 10 million severely malnourished children worldwide.

[00:07:25]We can do better than this. We've lost our way. We've completely ignored all the benefits and gifts that we've been given in this life. We're just so worried about finding out who's the enemy and bombing them and killing them before they're able to kill us. Even though it's all made up that they're going to try and kill us. makes you feel good that you can say maybe they would have killed us so we killed them first.

[00:07:45]This is not what we should be doing. It wouldn't be such a reach for everyone to be safe and happy and secure.

[00:07:54]But this is the way the world's going.

[00:07:55]And I'm not a coward. I am a bit of a coward, but I'm not a coward and I'm not anti-war.

[00:08:02]I understand the value of war. There's actually certain reasons why people will fight and die. religion, ideology, territory, resources, and you got to fight when you got to fight. But most of the wars that I'm seeing, and if you go back all the way since like World War II, name a conflict that we really actually needed, roughly 8.3% of the world's population faces hunger today.

[00:08:24]Approximately 2.3 billion people experienced moderate or severe food insecurity in 2024. Some of the worst spots for hunger include the Sudan, Gaza. That's an example of hunger that was created for no reason. Yemen, Haiti, South Sudan, Somalia, and Mali, but 1.4 million people. And you hear these numbers and you just sort of give them in the back of your head. Really put a thought into that. 1.4 million people.

[00:08:53]That's more people than you've actually seen in real life, in your actual life.

[00:08:58]1.4 million people face catastrophic famine-like conditions. Somalia, six million people face acute hunger. Haiti, 5.8 million people, which is more than half the population, are experiencing food insecurity. Nearly 70% of acutely food insecure people live in conflict zones. So like Gaza, Yemen, Somalia. But it's not just about availability of food or the requirements of food. There's other reasons why the prices are going to go so much higher from here. Not just the reasons that everybody else sees and that you already see. Also, there's plenty of climate change and drought, flooding, fertilizer shortages, which are just beginning, war related supply disruptions, even economic collapse and vulnerable countries. And here's the thing, humanitarian food funding has dropped significantly. It fell by about 39% in 2025.

[00:09:50]And I always tell you, the first victim of any economic hardship is usually charities. You donate every month to whatever charity once a year. People cut back on charities first when they get into financial hardship. And you're seeing that play out by massive declines and the amount of aid being directed towards food insecurity. So prices are going up. There's going to be more food insecurity. And the money going in to help offset that is dramatically lower.

[00:10:15]Combined with the droughts and the military conflicts and the environmental events, we are about to step into a horrible time in the world for all of us. A time that'll be more challenging and difficult than we've ever seen. And I'll remind you again, the higher oil prices, the increased food insecurity, number of nations all gathering around, buffalo stance around Iran right now, it's all going to expand even more. This video is not about what's happening.

[00:10:40]It's about what's going to happen.

[00:10:41]What's going to happen is all these trends are going to get even worse and it's going to be around for the rest of your life. I promise you, the faster you realize and recognize the reality of where we're going, that's the quicker you're going to make great decisions to avoid the massive risks to prepare to survive better through this hard time that's coming up and perhaps capture some of the opportunities that are going to be showing up all around you right now. You don't think of it that way, but nobody else is thinking of it that way either. That's why there's so many opportunities right now for you to land on your feet and make the right decisions that then starts paying you off, starts getting you above inflation.
