"I thought we destroyed nuclear but now it feels like we didn't we undestroyed it. I can't, because what's happened is that if Hegseth targets oil, then the Iranians target oil for the. And then you just have the situation where you don't even get the seven million barrels that the Saudis are talking about. You get force majeur everywhere."
"I think, you know, don't hit desalinization and don't it oil, because then Iran seems to respond in kind. I don't think you can boss them around on that. Because they have the edge, because the Gulf countries don't have the really great defense. I don't think people thought about that ahead of time."
"And you try to figure out, well, what are the targets? I mean, we haven't seen the Supreme Leader. Are they trying to target the Supreme leader? Are they targeting more nuclear? I thought we destroyed nuclear."
As the Iran conflict enters its tenth day, the Trump administration faces criticism for conflicting messages and unclear war strategy. CNBC host Jim Cramer criticized the bombing approach as indiscriminate and counterproductive, noting confusion about whether nuclear facilities were destroyed. He emphasized that targeting oil or desalination plants risks Iranian retaliation in kind, potentially disrupting global oil supplies and creating force majeure situations. Cramer highlighted that U.S. and Israeli objectives may not align, particularly regarding oil infrastructure. He stressed the importance of strategic clarity, noting that Gulf countries lack robust defense systems, suggesting the administration failed to consider regional vulnerabilities when planning operations.
