🇸🇦🇾🇪 Saudi Arabia's East-West pipeline is reportedly shut with 4 pumping stations knocked out... and the repair clock may run years, not months
Riyadh built that line as the escape hatch for when Hormuz closes, and if it is down, the kingdom can't move crude by sea or by pipe.
Former CIA analyst Larry Johnson says an analyst he follows has pushed the repair estimate from five years to seven to ten, against Aramco's own two-year figure, and that Treasury is watching for the next move:
"They'll have little choice. And that's one of the things keeping Scott Bessent up at night."
A kingdom that can't sell oil starts selling US debt to cover the gap, so the pressure on Riyadh to cut a deal with the Houthis now comes from Washington's bond desk as much as its war room.

How long are the bankrupted American taxpayers going to bank roll never ending wars to please the genocidal Jewish state of Israel and provide their citizens free healthcare, free education, free housing and free security. It is 78 years now and $20.74T spent to the child killing Jews in Israel. WAKE UP AMERICA! It is time to build America. We now have 50m Americans on Food stamps, 20m kids go to bed hungry. 40m Americans without healthcare and come January we are going to have another 5m Americans without healthcare. Americans can't fill up their gas tanks, cannot afford groceries and cannot pay the mortgage bills, yet we still have to supply them air crafts and helicopters (even today October 10/14/2026) costing another $700m dollars.
