I'm John Batchler. That is McCarter, my colleague and co-host American Greatness,

and we're enjoying the

conversation on a grim topic with Malcolm Holnne, Conference of President's major American Jewish

organizations, about the world, the globe, facing oil shortages in 30 days. Wall Street says

30 days to what is called a tipping point when we run out of vital supplies to keep economies

going, already reduced projections for 26 and 27. What we have now is that 30 days for jet fuel,

for diesel, for gasoline, and for shortages. Malcolm, what can you tell us about that 30 days? Is it part of the conversation

on the American and Israeli side? And is it something that we should worry about or are they thinking

ahead? Well, I think it is something to be worried about. And there are deadlines even shorter

than that, including that there's running out of the oil parties, but especially

Iran are running out of storage space for the oil that they are producing. You can only,

you only have limited amount of storage in some of those on Karg Island, which is inaccessible

or filled. And the Iranians, it could be a matter of two or three days when they have to start considering

stopping production. And once you try to stop a well, you can poison it, you can destroy it.

It's very hard to bring it back, very expensive to bring them back online. So that's why the

deadline loops so large. And when you're talking across an area that provides 20% of the oil to the

west, it becomes even, it looms even larger. The OPEC plus countries agreed this week to increase

by 188,000 barrels per day, I think in June, the production, they could do much more. They could have increased it by

$500,000. It will help, but it's not going to make up for the losses. So we are going to look

like higher prices, again, even more increased prices if this drags on. Today, prices went up 6, 7% in response to the attacks

by Iran in the Gulf, and I'm sure that will be even greater. A lot of it has been built in,

but it's still a long way to go. So the energy issue is very sensitive, and especially the
