Excerpt:
"In just 90 days, the US has executed an energy blitzkrieg decades in the making:
Hundreds of strikes on Russian tankers and refineries
Disrupting a third of China's oil and LNG supply
Capturing the largest oil reserves on the planet
Establishing a global naval blockade from the Arctic to the Indian Ocean
And in the process, kidnapped and assassinated two heads of state. We are witnessing the transition of the United States from an empire into a lawless Pirate State, and the birth of what I call the Petrogas-dollar or LNG-Dollar."

    Energy was not our quest, we have more than enough supply and demand.
    Our objective was to sequester the bad players in the world and if that meant Energy supply disruptions, so be it, it's temporary, unlike Nuclear war and global jihad.

      What Trump wants to be permanent is the necessity of holding US dollars
      by all other countries because they need them to buy hydrocarbon fuels.
      That's MAGA.
      (Unfortunately it also supports the existing bankster cartel system, but
      hopefully Trump will have time to stop that parasitic system.
      Better to be enslaved by English speaking banksters instead of Chinese?)

        Actually he wants both those things, gas dollars and the American system. England's pretty much done now unless they have more tricks up their sleeves.
        They flew home as commoners with their tails between their legs the other day.

        I thought the royals had their own planes, guess not !

    I dispute the claim of attacks on Russian oil infrastructure. As well as the US becoming a pirate state. But…. Excerpt In just 90 days, the US has executed an energy blitzkrieg decades in the making:
    Hundreds of strikes on Russian tankers and refineries
    Disrupting a third of China's oil and LNG supply
    Capturing the largest oil reserves on the planet
    Establishing a global naval blockade from the Arctic to the Indian Ocean
    And in the process, kidnapped and assassinated two heads of state. We are witnessing the transition of the United States from an empire into a lawless Pirate State, and the birth of what I call the Petrogas-dollar or LNG-Dollar.


    The rest are MAGA.

      I liked the detail data that the writer puts in the article, and his observation of some of the likely results, but,
      as you said, only someone without an understanding of how the rest of the world actually operates comes to
      his conclusion.

        Yes his observations of a massive shift is accurate , he chooses the old guard using the fear based , scarcity cartel OPEC colluding to control supply to maximize price and suppress economic growth .

          But Remember. OPEC was created for 2 reasons.
          1) To FORCE all purchases through US Currency and Bonds (Most didn't realize that the countries paid in DOLLARS, but we paid the OPEC members a mix of 30yr bonds and dollars. Which is why they bought GOLD, to hedge the bond inflation problem).
          2) Give OPEC a Monopoly in exchange for #1. As long as the monopoly was paid for using DOLLARS and gave us FORCED BUYERS of bonds... We were able to export INFLATION to everyone and profit internally.

          The SECONDARY reason to pay with bonds was "preventing breakaways". If you had enough dollars and gold, you could eventually ALL band together and drop oil output severely. But we found a way to keep you "needing" the $$$ coming in every month.

          This is the SAME way the American Families cannot get ahead, b/c they have too many monthly payments to be able to save.

          AND, if you own a business... Until you get past the 2 Million dollar mark, you are taxed hard enough to block you from growing. You are either FORCED to borrow and grow (where they control you), or not grow, where you are taxed enough that you cannot get escape velocity until retirement age.

          As this is BLOWING UP. our government needs to DEFAULT or CHANGE.
          Trump is choosing Change. Look at the PROFIT he made on INTC so far! A sovereign wealth fund. It gives us a chance. Re-value our gold, resources. Borrow against that (instead of thin air/currency creation). Get investments, and pay dividends. (NOT interest to the banking cartel).

          Crossing my fingers.
