Breaking news. Biden has completely wrecked the oil market by making Russian oil untouchable. We are going to see an oil crisis not see since 1979. But remember when you pay $10 per gallon, this is to punish Putin (says Biden).

This is a good article for once by Mr. Allen.

However, I fear that his conclusion may be erroneous. With this war Putin has overplayed his hand and now Biden and his European allies are intent on destroying the Russian economy, at whatever the cost may be for the rest of the world. As for NATO it will be strengthened as it is finally able to justify its existence and Finland and Sweden have expressed a desire to join.

This will only have a temporary effect. We are moving into a period of Stagflation.

When he was VP. Here is the video of him bragging about it:

BTW the barrel of oil is up 11% today because of the sanctions imposed on Russia (highest price since 2014). This is what you call shooting yourself in the foot. Unfortunately the Bahamas will be a collateral victim of this war.

Can she tell us why the UK has been silent on the continuous bombing by Saudi Arabia of Yemen for the past 8 years? At the last count there were over 100,000 deaths. Saudi Arabia also has a bloody dictator who cuts to pieces critics such as Khashoggi or who beheads children because they posted a critical messages on social media. But no, nothing, no outrage, no sanctions, on the contrary the UK and USA are assisting Saudi Arabia in the war against Yemen.

Also painting Ukraine as an ideal democratic and sovereign nation vs a “corrupt” Russia is just not true.

In 2016 Biden ordered Ukraine to fire the prosecutor who directed investigations into the natural gas company that hired his son to serve on its board of directors. Does that sound sovereign to you?

In 2020 the main opposition leader was put under house arrest and his assets frozen. The same year three TV channels were shut down.

About corruption, Ukraine is rated in the top 3 most corrupt countries in the world according to Erst & Young (Russia is not part of the top three).

Ukraine has neo-Nazi military units. This is from Wikipedia: "Azov Battalion, is a right-wing extremist and neo-Nazi Ukrainian National Guard unit, based in Mariupol, in the Azov Sea coastal region. It saw its first combat experience recapturing Mariupol from pro-Russian separatists forces in June 2014."

I will stop here although I could continue. When the UK will start taking the same interest in protecting persons of color being bombed, as when it happens to white people, I may start listening to you.

Can he also say something about Yemen and Palestine at the same time?

hmmm there was never any Al Queda, Taliban or Bin Ladin in Iraq. That's in Afghanistan. Although the removal of Saddam in Iraq gave birth to ISIS. In Ukraine you have Neo-Nazis called the Azov Battalion. Here is a short definition from Wikipedia:
"Azov Special Operations Detachment, often known as Azov Detachment, Azov Regiment, or Azov Battalion, is a right-wing extremist and neo-Nazi Ukrainian National Guard unit, based in Mariupol, in the Azov Sea coastal region. It saw its first combat experience recapturing Mariupol from pro-Russian separatists forces"
India and China, the most populous nations on earth just vetoed a resolution against Russia. Can't say that Russia is isolated.

Breaking news we are now very close to a nuclear war:

"In a dramatic escalation of East-West tensions over Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, President Vladimir Putin ordered Russian nuclear deterrent forces put on high alert Sunday in response to what he called “aggressive statements” by leading NATO powers.

The order means Putin has ordered Russia’s nuclear weapons prepared for increased readiness to launch, raising the threat that the tensions could boil over into a nuclear war. In giving it, the Russian leader also cited hard-hitting financial sanctions imposed by the West against Russia, including Putin himself."

Well as the USA is close to a nuclear war with Russia it will affect us. For the first time I wish the Bahamas was a bit further away from the USA. And to think we had four years of peace with Trump, but they said if he would be re-elected that would be the end of the world. Think about the irony. After only one year of Biden we have the worst crisis since WWII with a possible nuclear war. And now the Chinese are ready to invade Taiwan. This is a new version of the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact. We will all be very lucky if we come out alive of this Biden Presidency.
