> The flowing of oil is not of primary importance to the US in this conflict.

You think so? Then why did the US make it the condition of cease fire? Why did the US even agree to a cease fire? It is not like Iran is hurting the US mainland kinetically.

> The oil was already flowing. So I think we can reasonably rule that out as an objective.

Sometimes you have a thing and you don’t appreciate how important it is for you until you don’t have it anymore.
