LAW ENFORCEMENT RELEASES TERRORISTS ON BAIL?
TRUMP PROMISED EU ALTERNATIVE TO RUSSIAN FUEL
The Prime minister of the UK has alleged that Iran was behind the alleged possible attack on the UK airbase. Amazing that the suspects were released on bail within hours of their apprehension and also no explosives were found. Just another nail in the coffin of government credibility, not just in the US, but most everywhere in the western world. We continually witness misinformation, not coming from the tabloids or even from many of the so called adversaries. One has to wonder if all these people are just dumb, incompetent or do they intentionally want everyone to believe that truth does not exist anywhere.
We also hear even from mainstream media that the exports of oil out of the strait is now near prewar levels. While we can assume oil is being shipped, why the absurd misinformation, will voters now feel that all is well?
One of the reason that the US is exporting LNG and other energy to the EU is that it was promised to do just that, if the EU agreed to stop buying Russian oil. The EU had 30 year contracts with Russia at very reasonable prices and the US told them that we provided their defense and they should buy US oil and gas. I suspect just another election year bit of misinformation that can be pondered at least until after the election. Even if it is announced that exports are halted, it is probably not going to happen.
The Russian Ukraine war is intense with a Ukrainian counter offensive pushing Russians back in the Lyman area, while Russia is systematically destroying the energy, electric and transportation network in Ukraine. Russia has also cut off all shipping in and out of Odessa. Most are concerned for the people of Ukraine when winter sets in.
While we hear of peace deals in Iran, it is all more misinformation, the war will escalate after the election and it is undetermined if there will be any winner, or just a lot of death and destruction and economic panic with no real end.
We can expect a low level of chaos, the kind we are getting used to, on all fronts for the rest of 2026.
