"The Duran": straight pipeline of Russian anti-Ukraine and anti-American propaganda.

You all sound more and more like the communists who sided with North Vietnam every day.

Ganeemead is our local soviet cheerleader. Ignore him, as the rest of us do.

What I want to know is what the other Duran thinks, you know the second Duran in Duran Duran.

Just because The Duran is right 95% of the time DOES NOT mean they’ll be right 96% of the time.

When the Ukraine Project goes belly up after the rasputitsa hits, The Duran won't be in the same boat as grifting slugs Denny Davydov [Update From Luzern] and Blow Jogs [JoeBlogs].

Those guys actually have to be credible to put bread on the table.

Alex in Prague today - he's been traveling. :)

Current stats on German GDP, indebtedness, and industrial production seem fine, rather “meh”, but no impending disaster.

A problem with industrial fuel, if there really is one, is not going to do critical damage. Its just a minor cost (factor of production) in most industrial processes. Indeed, if it were critical the self imposed cost of electricity alone (which the Germans can only blame themselves for ) should have crippled Germany decades ago.

Contrariwise, having lots of cheap energy does very little (in re industrial capabilities) for most countries that have it. As in, for instance, Russia.

Alex must be hunkering down in Old Town Prague somewhere, and has been traveling radially from there via all the bridges. It’s quite interesting to locate where he was just by landmarks on Google Earth. It’s a lesson in itself.

He's got a cool job.

The seven-day-a-week thing would get old, though.

There was a time when Germany would have declared war on us over the destruction of that gas pipeline...

Ah, yes! The "good ol' days!"

Hydrocarbons are more important there as chemical feedstocks.

I agree that the Ukraine Invasion of the Russian Federation oblasts of Kherson, Zaporozhye, Donetsk and Luhansk is close to bellying-up.

Warmest Regards in this cooling fall in the EU...

A small fraction of that used as fuel.
Germany has access to lots of nat gas.

I don’t see that the current situation is particularly serious.

I guess you do, when there’s a distinct tendency here to dismiss critics of Deep State Neocon foreign policy as Soviets, Putin-lovers, etc.

Agreed! Last winter was a "nothing burger" here in Germany.
