If Iran closes Hormuz Straight the world is affected since it’s travel point for oil.

China gets 50% of their oil from there. US gets 5%. Im perfectly fine with that…

Looks like a cease fire is coming in a few hours.

Iran qualified for the World Cup and will here in the USA during the tournament. That should be interesting.

I expect the temperature to lower next year if we still have midterm elections, since polls show most Americans don't approve. I suspect it's why they're speedrunning all these plans this year.

And 900 lbs of uranium is missingsounds like that convincing talk of WMD being there.

And 900 lbs of uranium is missingsounds like that convincing talk of WMD being there.

Everytime I hear about these 900 lbs of enriched uranium I have to laugh a bit. I would have thought that the Iranians wouldn't be stuck in a time loop trying to replicate Little Boy... anyone that kept up with nuclear physics through the 60's should know that it is far easier to just turn thorium into U233 than it is to pull U235 out of uranium ore.... and the kicker is it takes only about 1/10 as much U233 to make a bomb as it does U235.... If they had just moved past the first type bombs they could have already made dozens for far less trouble than they have gone through chasing another Little Boy bomb.

That downplays how much more difficult it is to procure thorium and process for U233 vs. U235.

Besides, right or wrong, the general thought process of most countries seems to be that they don't need anything more than a 1940s level bomb plus delivery method to ensure they are largely left alone.

Disneyland Abu Dhabi to be "Emirati in style", says Miral CEO

Disneyland Abu Dhabi will be "authentically Emirati in style, but fully Disney in experience", Miral's group CEO has said in an interview.

“This destination will be authentically Emirati in style, but fully Disney in experience.

“We want visitors to feel the culture of the UAE while enjoying the magic of Disney.”

Upon completion, the new resort will offer Disney entertainment and attractions, themed hotels, and unique dining and retail experiences.

The ambitious project is now in the design phase, with regular workshops already taking place between Disney and Miral‘s development teams, Al Zaabi said.

Except it isn't more difficult to mine than uranium and is easier to transform it into u233.... Sure it can make some of the people processing it glow in the dark, but since when did the Iranians ever appear to be that concerned with the health or well being of their own people. You would think being able to cram a nuke into a small suitcase would be far more useful than having to use a multi ton bomb heavier than a car.

Idk how reliable this is, but I think it's worth mentioning that if this is true, Disneyland Abu Dhabi will cost around $10 billion dollars to build and open by 2030

This would make the most expensive theme park. IIRC Epic Universe cost 7 billion.

It’s a ton of money but should at least see a good return on investment, I was recently watching a YouTube documentary on many of the multi billion dollar projects in the Middle East recently (the palm islands, the world islands, the Line, Neom, Dubailand, etc) and compared to those this looks like a slam dunk.

I think I'm going to have to delay my UAE adventure to 2030 then. Ferrari World in Abu Dhabi, - maybe another one like Motiongate or IMG Worlds in Dubai; also combined with a desert safari, popular sites. AND be visiting this very interesting new Disney Park!

The Disney difference is they’re adding $3 billion for shade.
