For the Administration it is a delicate balancing act. Sending billions in weapons but warning, “don’t kick em in the nuts.” Obviously, we want to encourage Ukraine, but the fear of destabilizing the oil market during an election year is only logical. You will not get reelected on $9 a gallon gasoline. How could that ever be explained to the Reich wing mental midget maudlin multitudes?
But Ukraine attacked the oil refineries anyway, during the hold up of American aid due to Republican grandstanding.
It appears Russia’s hydrocarbon market is sufficiently isolated from the world market. And the Ukrainians have a long-term attack strategy for Russian refineries. This is the hole in the oligarch’s shoe as the refineries are private property and not state property. There’s never a Communist regime around when you really need one! Vladimir Putin vows to defend the oil refineries, but hasn’t managed to defend one yet. There are not enough radar sets or missile batteries. That’s the legacy of the Soviet Military for you; great with parades but lousy with inventory.
The war in Ukraine has ramped up. Moses Johnson, and his ilk in Congress tried to take it off the front page for 6 months, in order to kiss Israels ass, and ended up putting Trumps trial on the front page instead. Now they have a candidate thats a convicted felon. A majority of Americans, and Israelis that support Biden more than they do Netanyahu. And now Ukraine is getting the weapons, and in just two weeks have already stopped Putin dead in his tracks.
Both the people of Israel, and Ukraine know who is helping and who isn't.

David Kicks Goliath in the Nuts
By David Glenn Cox The Allied bombing raids on the Ploesti oil refinery during WW2 helped to cripple the Nazi war machine. As the German Army rolled on towards the Caucuses there were but two prizes. One was important and the other was not. Without the...
