Biden asks Ukraine not to attack Russian refineries
Arutz Sheva ^ | 14/4/24

Posted on 04/14/2024 1:09:04 AM PDT by Eleutheria5

The USA has called for Ukraine not to attack Russian refineries despite Russia's widespread offensive against several energy facilities in Ukraine.

The Department of Defense has warned that such an attack could bring another spike in fuel prices worldwide.

Michaelo Podoliak, advisor to Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy, claimed that such facilities were legitimate military targets. In a recent interview, he also claimed that such an attack was not only legitimate but desirable on a worldwide level in order to weaken Russia's hold on the energy lobby.

“Ukraine must destroy Russia's refineries. They have no impact on worldwide pricing, and are only an expression of lobbyism.”

"Also, mail-in ballots have been made more strict and drop boxes for ballots are also now illegal."

The vote counting precincts in Democrat controlled areas will have to rely on the 3 am rental trucks full of enough Biden votes to "win."

Of course no. It is an election year. Crippling Russia’s oil output decreases supply in the global market, thereby raising oil prices which impacts everything else that consumers use (gas, food, etc.) resulting in price increases and exacerbating inflation. This is not what an incumbent (or his handlers) wants when trying to get reelected. After the election is over, Ukraine will have the green light to ‘bomb away’ with funding provided by the US taxpayers.

And how many die in the interim, or are crippled or have their livelihoods destroyed, in order to maybe improve Brandon’s chance of maybe being reelected. From Ukraine’s POV, winning now and quickly is better than waiting ‘til November to know where they stand.

Bombs away now.

I’ve been waiting patiently for oil and gas to go through the roof with all the wars in critical regions. It’s maybe just starting to happen. But natural gas is below 1.80 per BTU as of Friday night, and I’m PO’d that my long position hasn’t paid off yet.

“Since refineries produce precursor chemicals for explosives manufacture, as well as fuel for Putin’s military machine, they most certainly are military targets.”

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Biden doesn’t want either Russia or Ukraine to win. He wants the war to go on forever.

We need a president that will help the Ukrainian people in earnest. Lend them some true steadfast military help so they can defend themselves. I believe Trump could do that.

Ukraine is the richest country of Europe when it comes to natural resources: Uranium, minerals, food production, you name it. No wonder Moscow wants to take Ukraine, it would make it rich beyond the scale!

The Ukrainian people are descendents of the Vikings and is Europe’s most Christian country. For once we can help a nation which shares many of our Christian goals.

Could be blackmail. I believe Israel depends on the U.S. for Iron Dome replenishment, which is essential for defense. I think I read that Israel used over $1 billion overnight in expensive defense, so they need replenishment.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Indeed,

Obama refused to send or lend military help to Ukraine after Russia took Crimea. He only sent pillows and blankets to Ukraine! Talk about insulting arrogance...

We had to wait for the arrival of Trump at the White House to FINALLY see massive US military help going to Ukraine.
Trump initiated the whole idea of helping Ukraine in a military way. He wants Ukraine to win.

Trump’s comments about Ukraine:

A great speech by Trump.
