Hold onto your hats everyone! A wind is blowing!

Attack Saudi oil fields drone attack. Houthi?

From Bloomberg and the story by Maria Jose Valero and Nadeem Hamid

"Pompeo Blames Iran for Drone Attack on Saudi Oil Industry"

* "Comment comes after Trump offers support for Saudi defense"
* "Saudi oil output cut in half by drone strike on Aramco site"

"Secretary of State Michael Pompeo blamed Iran for attacks on a massive Saudi Aramco oil facility, saying there was no evidence the drones originated in Yemen."

Proxy attack by Iran on the Saudi oil production capacity using combat drone? Houthi rebels claim responsibility? Yemen is a long way from the Saudi oil fields.

CONSIDER THIS TO BE NOT MERELY A REGIONAL MATTER! HAS WORLDWIDE CONSEQUENCES. MASS PANIC WITH OIL PRICES WILL OCCUR WITH A SCRAMBLE FOR SUPPLY OCCURRING? EVEN A THREAT OF DISRUPTION CAN BE DISASTROUS.

And the Saudi will do what exactly? Retaliate in kind? Like I said, hold onto your hats.
