I guess if we BLOW UP pipelines going to GERMANY, we can displace some of Russia’s gas output. Considering that Russia was selling that gas to Germany for NEXT TO NOTHING, the loss in revenue is in the noise. Would have made more sense for the Neocons to blow up Russian LNG ports, but I guess Germany was a softer target.

And, of course, the doubling of the price of oil during this time, thanks to the Neocons emptying our Strategic Reserve, EASILY made up from the lost gas revenue and much more for the Russians, so they’re sitting happy with their budgets.

When you use the word “we” I am not sure to whom you refer?

the doubling of the price of oil during this time

wth are you talking about, dummy

oil hit a peak of $105 on June 1, 2022

it dropped to $68 on May 1st of this year, and is now at $90 ...

that's still a DROP from the "early-war" price

and NOT a "doubling in price"

Russia is still selling to Germany. Though not through Nordstream.
