I still think oil markets are being delusional. These prices basically mean that the market still thinks this war will conclude shortly, with oil infrastructure largely intact, leaving markets to factor in only elevated medium-term risk.

Within the next 48 hours, we are going to reach near the top of the escalation ladder. All oil/gas export terminals and water desalination facilities in the region could be destroyed, with the timeline for their reconstitution measured in years rather than weeks.

I do not see how European democracies can survive being complicit in the war on Iran plus the escalation of the cost of living crisis this war causes. This is the perfect storm to bring the far right into power.

Iran believes the GCC country that helped the US strike the desalination plant was Bahrain. The Israelis, despite being allied with UAE, are claiming that the UAE did it. Dubai gets 90% of its water from desalination plants that would be very easy for Iran to hit. #FakeFriends

All the regime change stuff failed. No pro-Israel riots, no Kurdish militias. So all they can do now is just war crime after war crime.

O the answer to this question, from the limited responses that I've got here and elsewhere, is basically "we havent been paying attention and we just assume the Europeans are doing the right thing rather than just endorsing whatever Trump does".

Firing short range missiles is easier than medium range missiles. Though I imagine the UAE is exaggerating how many missiles Iran fired at it so to make its interception rate look better.

At this point, the US is just trying to kill as many people in Iran as possible by hitting urban areas with massive bombs. There is no military target here. They've clearly given up on getting regime change by having Iranians riot for them.
