California surfers weep as oil prices surge following report that US very close to war with Iran

"It could begin very soon."

California surfers, who mostly drive internal combustion automobiles to the beach, are weeping, this morning, after a new report sent oil prices surging. Gas in the Golden State, already nearing $5 a gallon, could easily soar into the $6 range forcing those who live in San Juan Capistrano, say, to surf lil dumpy Capo Beach instead of driving the extra 15 minutes to “Queen of San Diego County” Lower Trestles.

The aforementioned report, a stunner from TLDR news source Axios. Journalist Barak Ravid, who is said to have tight relationships with the Israeli government, today, published that Trump is “closer to a major war in the Middle East than most Americans realize. It could begin very soon.”

His sources shared that this would not be a quick hit but a “massive” operation that could eventually be measured in years, not months, fulfilling Trump’s election campaign promise of bogging America down in more international conflict than any other president in the history of the world.

Trump’s envoy, Steve Witkoff, and son-in-law, Jared Kushner, are currently in Geneva, Switzerland conducting talks with the team from Tehran. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi cited “progress” while asking for two weeks to finish a detailed proposal, but with Trump sending a second aircraft carrier to the region along with a reported “huge number of support aircraft.”

The prop betting markets now have the odds of a strike on Iran by March 31st at 60%.

Oil prices soared from $60 a barrel to $64.
