Politics Ukraine / Russia

I guess the Pope chimed in commenting that NATO barking at Russia's door, instigated Russia invading Ukraine.
WTF

 

I'm getting sooo fed up with religious people ruining everything.

 

You have to apply to gain NATO membership... If Russia doesn't want it's neighbors to apply to be a part of a defensive alliance Russia might want to think twice before the whole Georgia thing... and then there's the whole Crimea thing...

I know the Pope is trying to help calm things down, but I'm just throwing that out there as something to think about...

 

They need Ukrainian farm land and they need to be able to use the rivers and ports.

If he starts lobbing Nukes he has signed Russia's death warrant. They are already going to die, but that would finalize things.

 

Seriously this is what I'm seeing.
Russia invades Ukraine.
Ukraine doesn't roll over and makes it a real problem.
Oil prices soar and gas prices follow suit.
The American people start to buckle down and support Ukraine for a while and even make it through a "Slap"
Russia continues to fail and decides to just start killing randomly.
The US continues to support Ukraine but is afraid to get too involved for fears of Nuclear holocaust.
Energy companies begin making huge amounts of MONEY but the US continues to buy gas.
Energy companies keep the prices high even though there is no shortage of oil and measures have been taken to keep gas flowing.
Someone leaks a report about the Supreme court decision on Roe vs Wade.
Energy companies are ecstatic that they no longer are on the front page with gas prices and the War trudges on continuing to give them reasons to make astronomical profits.

There is more- All of this is costing thousands of lives in Ukraine but we keep filling our tanks with gas.

 

Well, we aren't buying the gas from anybody. We're using our own. But I get your point.

At a certain point we will need to ban exports of oil. Maybe another month or two... That will hold our prices down.

 

Do you think they will drop 35% like they went up?

 

Should get us to around $80 per barrel... Of course it will fall much slower than it jumped...

 

SMH

And here I thought they finally had a pope who wasn't a complete scumbag.

 

I guess Russia's neighbors aren't feeling like Russia is being very neighborly...

Hunger Crisis Looms in Africa as Ukraine War Cuts Off Wheat Imports Amid Climate Crisis & Pandemic

 

It might not just be Africa. The middle east, as well as China could face the same issue.

 

It’s going to be epic when Ukraine destroys the Crimean bridge. The longest bridge in the world will be destroyed and Putin will be so butthurt

 

Planting seeds huh? Nice!

 

So wait, which is it???

 

Probably both. The US provided targeting information and then denied it.
