I thought the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank would be today's biggest story, but this might be bigger. Saudi Arabia has now made it even more clear that it is no longer interested in maintaining a tight relationship with the US. This could be the beginning of the end of the petro dollar. This will also infuriate Israel.

Thats great. The US has built their empire on a throne of lies pretty much. Thats their problem. Except who knows what they will do to the rest of the world as they collapse. I already believe they were the ones that blew up the natural gas pipe line between Russia and Europe spiking an energy crisis and record high electricity prices. And its probably only the beginning.

That gas pipe wasn't pumping actual gas for customers when blown up. Russia suspended deliveries using Nord Stream I before and Nord Stream II was never operational. There are other gas pipes to Europe, going through Ukraine.

Correct. It was blown up to prevent Germany from changing their mind as their citizens started to freeze.

I have friends in Germany. Haven't heard from any of them actually freezing. You know they have some reserves and Russia is not the only potential source for gas? It was just cheapest option. Somehow Europe used natural gas before pipelines from Soviet Union were built.
