Iran were attacked and retaliated with gas refinery attacks

State-run QatarEnergy has announced it is shutting down its production of liquefied natural gas (LNG) after Iran’s retaliation to US-Israel attacks. The US-Israel axis has murdered Iranian leader Ali Khamenei and his family, along with more than 150 schoolchildren, as well as attacking Iranian hospitals and infrastructure.

QatarEnergy’s Ras Laffan and Mesaieed facilities supply 20% of global LNG. Gas prices in Europe have rocketed.

Along with other Gulf states housing US military facilities, Iran has hit Qatar – including destroying a power plant water tank in Mesaieed and an energy facility in Ras Laffan. No casualties were reported in either attack.

Saudi Arabia has also announced a partial shutdown of its Ras Tanura oil refinery, one of the world’s largest oil processing facilities. This announcement comes as Iran hit a second oil tanker for ignoring its closure of the vital Hormuz Strait. Oil prices have also soared as a result.

This is not the first time US warmongering has put the global – and particularly the European – economy into crisis. The Biden regime is now widely recognised to have destroyed the Nord Stream gas pipelines, allowing oil companies to enrich themselves with massive energy price rises that impoverished millions. Western media continue to ignore investigative journalist Seymour Hersh’s exposé.

Qatar, Bahrain, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE all joined Keir Starmer and Donald Trump in condemning Iran for daring to retaliate to an unprovoked attack.
