“YES… HA HA HA… YES!”
-SickosThe really dumb thing about all this is there is a perfectly good waterway on the west coast of Arabia called the Red Sea but with all the trillions made by the Kingdom, they never thought to invest in a second pipeline.
Instead, Princes bought their 25th Lamborghinis.
The Red Sea you say?
The topography is non conductive. There was a pipeline that went to Sidon though.
the us empire has a track record of smacking down their puppet governments in the gulf region whenever they try to invest in their country’s infrastructure like this because the empire fears that it might make them more independent of its control.
they’re only allowed to develop in a way that benefits the us empire and it’s gotten to such a bizarre extreme that the leaders of the people in the region have an expression for it:
My grandfather rode a camel, my father rode a camel, I drive a Mercedes, my son drives a Land Rover, his son will drive a Land Rover, but his son will ride a camel.
Who would have thought that relying on an energy source that is mainly being produced in countries that are at risk of war is going to cause problems in the long run?
The world has had enough time to decentralize energy production (as in… solar, wind, heck, even coal).
What has been done? Nothing.
It would be a bit interesting if what causes the rapid green transition is naked US imperialism and war. Rather depressing of course but interesting
Oh fuuuuuck off. People are being slaughtered in hones and schools and this, THIS is what the “experts” are warning of? The West deserves it and has exactly zero right to complain, and I say that as a Westerner so I’m including myself that assertion.
It’s material analysis of the motivations of the proleteriat. Yes this is what experts are warning about, consequences to the war makers for starting war. Everyone on this site is reading both the grizzly details of the warcrimes AND the economic impacts which overall effect their lives.
Hey, Westerner, you DO have a right to complain, and you SHOULD, about ALL OF IT. And NEVER STOP. And you DON’T deserve it, you didn’t do anything. Which part of the west is responsible for this fuckup, and is there a chance that one or more people in this nebuluous West thing don’t deserve it because they didn’t want it? Complain about the human cost and the money making your life harder too. I beg you to bitch. You’re not a murderer, you’re in the murderer’s dungeon.
So we just stop reporting stuff?
The west
Not like Spain is causing this. This is Israel and the US.
Spain still supports the Western empire by being in it and benefiting from the exploitation of the periphery. The EU alone has done plenty to support the atrocities in the Middle East, and Spain has, at the very least, witnessed all of that (if not actively participated) and still sees fit to stay in the EU.
So it is not Britain, France, the US, the Soviet Union that destabilized the Middle East. It is the EU, that without an army, a common foreign policy and a common mandate that caused it.
And Spain obviously, those evil apathetic monsters.
NATO bombed Yugoslavia and the middle east, screw you

Full political and economic support of the US’s invasion? Not even ruling out Canadian military involvement in the future? Oh sorry, “regrettable” full support. Like that makes it okay. As a Canadian, Canada’s response to this has been disgusting. And especially ironic for a country whose sovereignty the US is also threatening, but I’m sure if you help the leopard hunt other prey they won’t turn around and eat your face after.

Canada and every other Western country should be raising hell over this and isolating the US for its unprovoked invasion of another country. Canada got so high and mighty about sanctioning Russia for Ukraine, what makes this different? God forbid you expect moral standards your country has been on a high horse about for the last several years to be equally applied to the West.

What if we both stop the war(s) and ration fuel?
