“European Commission chief Ursula von der Leyen”

Her grandfather was a Nazi officer. Schwab’s dad was a nazi officer. Chrystia Freeland Canadian vice prime minister comes form a Nazi officer family. Olaf Scholz came from a nazi family, was a long haired revolutionary socialist from the mid 70s. Atheist, no kids. Macron, no kids. Boris Johnson, no kids. Merkel, no kids.

Noticing a pattern.

Thanks, Rhino, that’s something that I didn’t know, and yes, there is a pattern.

If Medvedev had the mind-set I do there would be an increase in energy supply pricing for each sanction imposed until EU learns. And then thank EU for rejecting Trump’s advice.

“Maybe the US should back off giving Ukraine billions every week”?

They’re not about to stop feeding the Slush Fund.

The Russians are just ‘helping’ the Europeans with their ‘sanctions’. Hopefully Europe APPRECIATES this.

“The lesson to be learned here is “Do pick a fight with someone who already has you in a chokehold.””

So true. And it’s so obvious. Did NONE of these EU types think this through? Did they believe so strongly that their sanctions would bring Russia to its knees, that they never considered the possibility that Russian government might not collapse and accept their demands?

Even a child holding its breath in a tantrum realizes pretty quickly this is a losing strategy.

So we are now at the ‘some must sacrifice for the public good’ stage.

Or, to put it another way,
“You’re freezing and I’m doing without my morning latte. We’re in this together.”

U.S. slaps sanctions on company building Russia’s Nord Stream 2 pipeline

https://www.reuters.com/business/energy/us-plans-sanctions-company-building-russias-nord-stream-2-pipeline-cnn-2022-02-23/

From 6 months and a few days ago.

And from a few months before that:

https://www.state.gov/imposition-of-further-sanctions-in-connection-with-nord-stream-2/

And remember, the whole Russia-Ukraine disagreement started with the Ukraine stealing Russian gas headed for Europe. And the Nordstream construction blockages were to force the Russians to allow the Ukrainans to do what the Ukrainians were doing.

Believe it or not, President Reagan cautioned Europe not to become dependent on Russian natural gas supplies. Oh Well.

I want to fight for traditional America, not the diseased manifestations of leftist parasites. I am more interested in winning the culture war and the ongoing civil war than wasting time and energy on the WEF's war of distraction. Get a clue.

And I want to be 18 again, only this time 6’2”, and independently wealthy, and be able to fly like Superman. Ever hear of reality? What you want is dead and gone pal. Long, long ago dead and gone. Sorry to break it to you, but it’s all part of getting a clue.

Those two statements are correct.

A little more clarity would be gained by pointing out that Russia's financing and building Nordstream 1&2 was a Capitalistic, Free Market method of defeating a Ukrainian Socialist/Organized Crime goal of stealing and controlling all Russian natural gas, and

Once Nordstream 1&2 were built an operational, Germany intended to stab Russia in the back and become the new Socialist/Organized Crime country to steal and control all Russian natural gas.

Poor Germany, it didn't work out that way.

They can’t. You can’t force someone in another country to sell stuff to you at a price you want. Especially since it’s a seller’s market. Europeans are suffering from delusions of superiority.
