I just don't see Putin attacking a NATO territory (starting WWIII), so I was asking in case I'm missing something.
When you are killed in a war, you are a war death, doesn’t matter how high or low the rank you are. Putin was elected, Biden was elected, so what’s argument here? It is realpolitik. Putin can name a holiday after him when he is killed. The caption has to go down with the ship. When war breaks out, oil is war resources. It is not $200 oil in question, it becomes rationalized resource like water in California and no amount of money can buy unless you have a quota. I have a feeling that China has already agreed to finance most if not replace Russian’s export energy and agriculture market, lng, crude, wheats, whatever Russian has to sell, the east will pick up the slack. Ukrainian soldiers will fold other than the Blackwater trainees. I think even the ethnic Russians in Ukraine may not want to be part of Russian Federation because everyone lived in that territory voted for independent statehood back then, no one foresaw the NATO expansion.
This is a truth that is not being reported ....and it is why cutting off Russian energy will only make gas higher in the USA
The idiots in extreme liberal media also, fail to note that the US was buying Russian oil. Europe buying Russian natural gas, 35% of it. Vladimir Putin thanks Joe Biden and the NATO jocks for driving the price of oil and natural gas higher! Thanks guys for putting monies in my rainy day fund. Hilarious!
Where is Captain Obvious when we need him... I could have sworn I saw he was back. Antony Blinken Says He Believes Russia Will Invade Ukraine Imminently “I can’t put a date or exact time on it, but everything is in place for Russia to move forward," the secretary of state said. https://www.huffpost.com/entry/anto...ne-invasion-update_n_6216d4d3e4b0f800ce1b82bf
We learned during the 2020 summer lockdown that people demanding the opening of their fair salon to do their hair was much more important than the thousands of Covid deaths. Simply, if thousands are killed in an attack by Russia on Ukraine...I guarantee you that the same people here in the U.S. that complained about their Hair Salon will be the same people that will complain about higher gas prices instead of carpooling or using public transit. Yet, I'm just glad that our U.S. soldiers will not be involved in the fighting that looks like will occur soon between Russia / Ukraine. wrbtrader
