Not NATO for starting it.

The hell?

You could maybe argue the EU played a role, but NATO had no part until post-invasion by Russia when Ukraine sought membership

Thats not true, they’ve just recently rejoined as an associate member.


They were so embarrassed to have left the EU that they sent their vassal state to join.

I don't understand why these things keep affecting our prices. Are we buying oil from Ukraine and Russia? We should not be buying oil from anyone including any Middle East Muslim country.

How is Ukraine affecting an American refinery not having the crude oil to refine into diesel?


Because oil prices are set on speculators, not production. If oil was simply set on supply, the US would already be back to $2 dollar gasoline and diesel.

The US has the means of oil for their production.

The diesel bombings by Ukraine are no accidental target.

You don't say? Well blow me down. I have read and re-read the post and can not find any indication whatsoever regarding two totally separate entities having a connection for I did not ever mention their disdain for the successes of POTUS Trump, American military power, and our American agenda.

Imagine if Biden or Obama was an office in the same thing was happening right now and this board would be saying that the shutdown of the street and the war and Iran would have absolutely no effect on the gas

Sure, buddy sure

Still not as high as your boy Biden and Bath House Barry when using inflation adjusted numbers.
