Biden administration worked against US national interests, at every turn — catastrophic results now loom

Stupidity on self-made stilts

 

This blog has railed against American neocons' suicidal stupidity in provoking the unwinnable war in Ukraine, boomerang sanctioning Russia — and pissing off Asia, most of the global South — and now, Saudi Arabia.

 

We will be able to add Germany to this list, if Germans ever grow enough spine and self-respect to point fingers at the real Nord Stream pipelines destroyer.

 

 

A pertinent common sense proposition

 

One cannot start fights with literally almost everyone — and reasonably expect to walk away, without at least a bloody nose.

 

Consider the following left hook to the American head:

 

 

Saudi Arabia and other major oil producers on Sunday announced surprise cuts totaling up to 1.15 million barrels per day from May until the end of the year, a move that could raise prices worldwide.

 

Iraq said it would reduce production by 211,000 barrels per day, the United Arab Emirates by 144,000, Kuwait by 128,000, Kazakhstan by 78,000, Algeria by 48,000 and Oman by 40,000. The announcements were carried by each country's state media.

 

Russia's Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak meanwhile said Moscow would extend a voluntary cut of 500,000 until the end of the year, according to remarks carried by the state news agency Tass. Russia had announced the unilateral reduction in February after Western countries imposed price caps.

Ouch (cubed)

 

As a result of the Biden administration's psychotic belligerence and its complete lack of foresight, the US-favoring petrodollar looks to be on its way to being diluted.

 

Oil-producing nations took offense, when the US and EU tried to fix the price of oil to suit their pampered desires.

 

And Saudi Arabi (the world's largest oil producer) is, no doubt, still irritated by the Biden administration's attempt to lessen global oil prices — and thereby interfere with this supposedly free market — by continuing to deplete the American oil reserve.

 

 

The moral? — The United States is led by destruction-oriented, avarice-drooling psychotics

 

The most glaring theme of the Biden administration has been its uninterrupted focus on intentionally ignoring, dismissing and trying to crush almost every other nation's legitimate national interests.

 

We are like a gigantically rabid dog — loosed by the gates of flaming Hell.

 

Most of the rest of the world is rapidly building barriers against this slavering creature's fatal bite.

 

Who would have thought that an American presidency could wreak such catastrophic US-damaging results in only two years?
