Yes, communism. All the talk about czars is a cover for the effort to rebuild another Soviet Union. Putin’s campaign of nationalizing energy companies continues.
Interesting new info about the bridge attack.

Details Of Attack On Crimean Bridge Revealed. NATO Appears Involved
Based on data from military correspondent Alexander Kots and official Russian sources
Two trucks were involved in the terrorist attack on the Crimean bridge.
The head of the Russian Investigative Committee, Alexander Bastrykin, reported to Vladimir Putin that there is no doubt that the terrorist attack on the Crimean bridge was carried out by the Ukrainian special services. Russian and foreign citizens took part in it at various stages of preparation.
“We have already established the route of the truck, where the explosion took place. Bulgaria, Georgia, Armenia, North Ossetia, Krasnodar… The carriers have been identified. With the help of operatives of the FSB, we managed to identify suspects among those who might have been preparing a terrorist attack,” Bastrykin stressed.
Two heavy-duty trucks were involved in this operation. The cargo were 22 pallets of plastic food wraps, 9 rolls each (one pallet weighs about a ton), that arrived in the Georgian port of Poti from Bulgaria by sea. The ordering customer was a citizen of Ukraine. Then it was loaded onto a truck with foreign license numbers. The driver of the first truck communicated with the ordering customer via WhatsApp. Further, the truck went from Georgian port of Poti to Armenia, where the cargo was customs cleared according to the rules of the Eurasian Customs Union. This is a typical, unsuspicious route for truckers traveling to Russia.
Then the trucks entered Russian territory through the Verkhny Lars checkpoint. The same one through which several thousand neoliberal Russians or common parasites fled to Georgia, fearing mobilization. The truck’s final destination was the city of Armavir, where the pallets were reloaded onto another truck, which headed toward Crimea. The second truck and its driver were blown up on the Crimean bridge.
The explosives were placed in rolls of plastic food wraps. it was done in such a way that it was not visible on the X-ray control, because of the multi-layer plastic.
This was apparently done in Bulgaria. Because it seems unlikely that bales of tightly twisted plastic food wraps with explosive material inside could have been repacked on the way.
This indicates that, in addition to Ukraine, intelligence services of NATO countries are apparently involved in the organization of the attack on the Crimean bridge.
The Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation reports that the driver of the first truck is already testifying. Most likely, like the driver of the second truck, he was used blindly and didn’t know what he was carrying.
Today, October 10, 2022, there will be a meeting of the Security Council of the Russian Federation. This state body of Russia makes decisions on key issues of foreign and domestic policy of Russia on security issues.

Interesting but it doesn’t mention how the bomb was detonated.
You seize my superyacht, I seize your oil field.
Isn’t it convenient that an unchecked truck was able to travel through such vast distances, and through multiple checkpoints, without any impediment or misadventure...
And only 48 hours after Russia said it was “definitely” not the Ukes because of thirty layers of defence or some such nonsense.
Give over. This has false flag written all over it. Low priority train on unaffected rails, only one carriageway knocked off pillars, hardly any casualties, and thirty layers of defence didn’t see a thing.
More people were killed in an apartment block bombing than by this bridge attack, and it’ll take longer to rebuild the housing than fix the bridge.
If the Ukes did it, they did so with minimal collateral damage and made thirty layers of defence look incompetent.
Globalism is dying, as nationalism rises. Putin couldn’t control himself.
Supposedly, the bomb was set off from under the bridge.
Canada, an ally, is begging to sell their clean oil to us.
When you shake hands with the Devil, why do you expect it’s all good?
Traffic on the bridge was minimal given the time of day it occurred, going by video footage.
Plus, the Kerch Bridge has a much higher priority for assuring its continued operation than an apartment complex, so it’s no surprise that Russia would prioritize fixing it. Then again, I imagine most countries would focus on fixing such an important piece of strategic infrastructure.
“And only 48 hours after Russia said it was “definitely” not the Ukes because of thirty layers of defence or some such nonsense.” Source? According to a number of Telegram channels I follow that provide English translations of Russian and Ukrainian news reports, a member of the Crimean parliament blamed Ukraine within hours of the explosion, and various Russian Duma members began blaming Kiev once the reaction of Ukrainian officials on social media became public knowledge.
(Also, the reaction of Ukrainian officials on social media was telling. They gloated and stopped just short of claiming responsibility for the attack; only upon realizing the damage wouldn’t be enough to stop bridge operations for more than 48 hours did they begin speculating about an FSB false flag in unison. So color me skeptical.)
Your buddy Putin’s decision will backfire because the only thing that keeps those fields productive are Western companies slant drilling and fracking know-how - technical stuff your buddy’s Gazprom minions oil workers do not have. When the Western companies pull out, down goes the field’s production and oil revenue with it.
Canada is going down the totalitarian road.
Just like Oz is.
Exxon already wrote down $3.4 billion in the first quarter.

So there is no further effect on Exxon from the seizure. They took the loss after the sanctions.
Some people never learn !!!
