we are far away from the war

[abhiseshakana]

Living in or outside the middle east is never a reason why we wont be affected by the effects of war if it comes, the effects of war at times may not be direct but indirectly it must be felt because of the limitations and unfavourable conditions that will be created by it. For now we will say the war is only at a particular place which we all are sure if it continues more countries will be affected in one way or the other,  some may be on direct actions while others may be by limitations in supply of goods and services,  logistics and so on as all nations are dependent on each other for survival. On this issue of war all we need to advocate for is peace, because that is what the world needs now

In my country which majority of citizens are moslem, many eyes watches and have big concern on every movement, issu, tension, conflict and escalation on middle east not only because it will affect my country but mosly because they read any signal of what Propet explained about end of day, and mostly the signal will be happened in middle east. What I see is that the people in my country have an empathetic connection with the issues in Middle East for moslem brotherhood, for humanity and waiting good news on Israel's defeat. Mater of fact when government wrongly take a stand on middle east issue, wave of protest and critism to government flowing fast, the example is about Indonesia's Board of Peace membership.

My uncle even asigned as peacekeeping forces in several conflict areas, he explained that live in conflict zone is the hardest form of life's test and can not be compared with economic problem, family trouble even life in prison. The threats and fear of death is real. With understanding of these situation, at least we can do our best to help peace is realized even the war happen in other hemisphere. At the first maybe we only feel little bit of the impact but who can guarantee our children do not experience war directly if dictator / bad guy win because we are too affraid to speak the truth.

Yes, we're far away from the war. But man, I know how it's being hard right now that our entire country is experiencing a surge for the fuel prices. I just can't and I'm even feeling that everyone is just ignoring the fact that if this war continues to go on. We'll need to start living like the old times through planting when no logistics will come or if there will be, expect that every charges that we'll have to pay for is going to be in a premium price because of how hard the cargos are going through in the strait. All of the wars that are happening, even we're not affected as a collateral damage, there's an impact in how we're living and consuming things. Since we're in a consumer's type of living, we'd feel the changes heavily.

[Dunamisx]

We don't actually have to be on the battlefield to know that we are being affected or concerned about the consequences of any war that is going, because the impact can be filled by anyone regardless of our location around the world, most people you see today being affected only so how it started but doesn't know where it will ended, the better the best that we expect the war to end soon before life become unbearable for all of us even in our respective countries where war is not taking place, but yet we are feeling the impact.

Most imports, logistics, and energy sectors are relying on the supplies there. They say that 20% of global supply is coming from there and so where the other is coming from? But with how the global reaction is coming from that effect of its war, we can say that 20% is so much to be too worried about it. We can source from other countries who also supplies oil but, I'm sure that there will be a lot of countries who have been affected that will close or temporary stop the supply and will focus on their citizens and own needs first.

The remaining 80% of oil supply comes from Russia, the United States, South America, and Africa
20% of the supply is neither too large nor too small a number. But the problem is that the disruption happened too suddenly, and the world did not have time to adapt or find alternative sources in a short period. Therefore, a shock to the economy was inevitable

One thing that is often overlooked is that the Strait of Hormuz is not only the shipping route for 20% oil supply, but also the shipping route for 20-25% of the world's LNG. With shortages of these two critical energy sources occurring at the same time, the economy would find it difficult to avoid serious instability.

[Hewlet]

i have already seen a bus company limiting their travel time due to the expenses of the gas meaning less people would be brought to and from their homes. so this war affects all of us even if you are not anywhere near the middle east.

There are direct and indirect impact that comes in times of war as this and while not everyone will be affected, directly, the indirect effect of the war is currently felt across state with countries that are even far from the concerned area currently struggling with hike in the price of basic commodities. petrol price have risen by at least 10% in my region and this looks like the start of things as it has started affecting the cost of transportation. with time, things will even get worse.

[TheUltraElite]

A bit of fear mongering is also going on because some are stockpiling gas cylinders and leading a virtual shortage of gas. The american administration will eventually have to cease because the entire world gas supplies from the middle east anyway and they will be forced to rethink his steps.

Either way, I dont find anything to worry about unless you are owning some restaurant or a factory that needs LPG all the time.

Also governments need ro think about setting up renewable sources of energy if they have not started already.

Some countries have long-term deals with financial obligations to oil suppliers in the Middle East. They have also made huge financial deposits and invested heavily in logistics. Getting an alternative supplier and signing a new deal is time-consuming and expensive. Russia, Africa, and other alternative suppliers might have to increase production to cover demands. Increasing productions is not done overnight. The best fix to this projected energy crisis is to end this war.

Yes, there's also the LNG and I think some experts also say about the fertilizers that are coming from the region that also passes through the Strait of Hormuz. So, with the 80% of oil coming from the other sources, I don't think that all of them are willing to supply the other countries who are affected by this because the USA have that sanction particularly for Russia, I have no idea about those with large supplies. There's also the news that it's announced by Trump that there will be an oil refinery in Texas that costs around $3B in construction although it won't be an instant. And so, I think this is how the oil from Venezuela will be supplied to the affected countries.

As someone who is living in a country that, is largely dependent on imported petroleum products to meet her energy needs like in my country this war is affecting my country. Because already we are beginning to see the price of petroleum products go up and they are linking it to the way. This war is taking place in a region that, supplies a major percentage of the world energy needs as far as the world is concerned no matter were you finds yourself your affected.



From what I know almost all the Gulf countries has short down their refinaries, as refinaries has been targeted by the both sides in the ongoing crisis. Anyone who is taking about this war not affecting him or her may not be too informed about international affairs because, as it stands the world is so inter related that anything happening anyway can affect you no matter how far you seems to be.

We will indirectly feel the impact of the global crisis due to the effects of the war, and perhaps not all sectors, but certain sectors will be under pressure. In my country, oil prices haven't increased, but panic has spread everywhere, with many gas stations filled with people queuing for fear that oil will become increasingly scarce and expensive. Several other impacts are also occurring, considering that the area where I live a few months ago experienced severe flooding, making it difficult to get goods in because national road access has not yet been fully restored, although it is currently slightly better than before. Even though we are far from the country at war, there will certainly be some indirect impact, especially if the war escalates and we face a potentially much larger energy crisis.

Of course we are being impacted by this, nobody denies that, in fact my nation is literally not caring about the war and just living it's normal life, we haven't even said who we are supporting on this, we just said don't involve us and moved on with our life. But what people are not realizing is that ,just because you are impacted, it's not the same thing.

What OP's friend or whatever meant basically is that, it's the US military that is attacking, so they are impacted, it's Iranians being bombed, so they are impacted, it's the Israelis who are getting missiles in Tel Aviv, so they are impacted, we are not. It is not the same thing, what you and I are living right now, is not the same thing and we can't consider that anything equal to them.

Oil supplying countries will continue to suffer financially, and countries with which they have long-term oil sales contracts will be busy searching for alternative sources due to the lack of timely oil supplies, but if the terms of the contract are not met, the supplying countries may not cooperate or renew the contract in the future. The US and Israel have essentially started the war to create an uncoordinated situation in the entire Middle East and to show the world how much they need them.

Most of the major oil countries took the advice of these two countries and entered into partnership agreements with them, but the only exception was Iran. If Iran could control its oil reserves and production, the United States would have almost complete control over the oil industry. To achieve their goal, they are forcing this war, which is to control the energy sector under the guise of nuclear disarmament. As U.S have established control in Venezuela.

Our world is a closely interconnected chain and each country is a link in that chain. Therefore, if any one or more link in the chain fail, the entire chain will be affected


Even if we live more than a hemisphere away from the conflict zone, do not think that it is completely irrelevant to us. War drives up oil prices, leading to increased global inflation, disrupting supply chain and consequently weakening the economy...No offense intended, but it would be ignorant for someone to say they were not affected by the war

Iran has been allowing inspection in their Nuclear research sites, and the inspection results have always said that there is no evidence that Iran is building nuclear weapons. However, Israel has been saying the opposite since the 1990s.

What Iran was doing is enriching the uranium not really building the nuclear missiles but they lead the rumur to spread that Iran had almost completed 90% of the work and if they wait any longer the world is in danger said by the only country who ever used nuclear weapon.

What Iran was doing is enriching the uranium not really building the nuclear missiles but they lead the rumur to spread that Iran had almost completed 90% of the work and if they wait any longer the world is in danger said by the only country who ever used nuclear weapon.

and they have been in this stage since 1990s. Netaniyahu has been saying this for three decades now. They are saying that Iran is building nuclear weapons and they will be a threat to everyone. Iran has been allowing inspection of its nuclear sites, but nobody has found anything like that. It's just that the USA and Israel want war with Iran, which is why they are doing it.

What was wrong with Venezuela? Trump kidnapped the president just because they have oil in their country and Trump wants that oil. We understand these politics a little bit. So, these politicians are not fooling us anymore.

This situation is definitely suffocating us, even though there is no war in our country, business needs or the need to keep our stoves burning cannot be reduced, especially since we don't have other alternatives to be able to cook, or look after businesses that require this.
This war must be stopped immediately before it binds other interests to be used as an excuse for some people to hoard goods which will result in higher shortages and entrepreneurs and housewives will definitely be affected, many culinary companies, especially during the month of Ramadan like this, require a lot of gas.

This is a stupid unnecessary war led by Israel and their combat ally America and it's really distabilizing the whole world who didn't signed for this self seeking war. Talking about Africa raisingoil production for export supplies, it's laughable to think that such alternative can cover for the world population that uses oil and gas every day.

Even the socalled African countries that produces oil doesn't even produce enough for her population how much the outside world. And Russia which many America allies have join America to parade with sanctions, you think they would be willing to supply LNG to these nations needs? The right thing to do is an end to this war and let things return normal.

[Doll2233]

Ignorant people say these and they even celebrate these bomings because they are muslim country and love to see it is getting destoryed and seriously these kinds of people enable the corrupt and ill people to become the leaders. And oil is not just expensive, it can also manipulate many other exports and imports that will be dicated by the other party and sure it will be on the advantage of one who got oil.

This freaking war has no logical reason.
It's just that Trump wants more oil, and they hate Muslims. The Iranian minister said one thing that we do not trust the USA anymore. We were in negotiations twice, but they attacked us twice in the middle of the negotiations. There is no need for us to negotiate with them anymore. They started the fight against Iran again, so they can start an attack on Lebanon again and seize land. As far as I know, a lot of people already died in Lebanon and Israel will seize the land from Lebanon. Just like they occupied West Bank from Palestine.

Iran is on right and they took stand for their country and for the whole Muslims and they are against the non Muslims who want their resources and oil prices are on the sky and Iran is applying pressure on the USA and Israel because they are not exporting oil to any country and oil prices will go up more and there will be inflation globally. UAE is in trouble because no flight is going and coming due to war And they want to stop this . Many countries want to stop this war but Iran want to take long this war and then there will be solution and USA has misconception that Iran will surrender and USA will be tired after few weeks. Iran is attacking on the countries which are supporting the Israel and Iran want to destroy Israel because they are against Palestine.

[passwordnow]

Any war that startles from some far away lands, we are far from the sounds of the missiles. But with what we're eating, use to travel and consume. They're all affected because the price has increased already. Someone cannot boast that they're not affected and far away from the battle ground because you see that economic impact of the war has no one to spare too and even the middle class, the rich ones. There's the advantage on each of them but that doesn't make them exempted.

Many countries want to stop this war but Iran want to take long this war and then there will be solution and USA has misconception that Iran will surrender and USA will be tired after few weeks. Iran is attacking on the countries which are supporting the Israel and Iran want to destroy Israel because they are against Palestine.

Which Iran wants to prolong the war?  They neither wanted nor ever wanted war because it would devastate their country. The United States and Israel were the instigator of the war and wanted to prolong it.

For a war to end, those who started it must end it first and offer explanation, compensation, and commitments. It should not be the country that was attacked and is defending itself that has to stop first.

Iran also does not attack other countries. They were simply defending themselves by destroying US military bases located in other Gulf states.
