Regime Still Hits Arab Oil Targets; Oil Hits $100

By Mark Davidson on September 7, 2026 • ( 0 )

(7 September 2026) We have been watching events centered on Iran and its regime, waiting for escalation of what looks to be the Second Signpost.

We have been watching since February 28. The Strait of Hormuz was mostly closed from March 2 to August 23 or so, being about 175 days. The Strait was sporadically open, and is now basically closed, although there are rumors of oil tankers getting through.

Oil Price At $100 Again

This Newsmax story reports that oil is again almost $100 per barrel, as Iran attacked anew an Aramco facility in Saudi Arabia. That refinery processes 400,000 barrels of oil per day.

The regime has just shown it still has the capability to attack and shut down oil refineries.

Regime Threatens Faster and Heavier Responses

In this second Newsmax story, it is reported that the Speaker of Iran’s parliament stated,

“From now on, any attack against Iran’s interests and security will receive a faster, heavier and more painful response.”

Conclusion

The idea that the regime could hit anything after the first ten days of US bombing Iran seemed fanciful. Yet here we are, 6 months later, with the Persian Ram still projecting its power on to an Arab oil refinery, bringing down its operation.

To get the Second Signpost going, the regime would need to bring down much of the Arab oil pumping and/or refining. It doesn’t have to be all at once. Maybe one every three days or so would be all it takes. The second horseman may operate quickly or slowly.

Keep watch.
