This is an interesting take. But did they really need to make a bad deal and wait for a war to introduce sanctions and then create crisis in order to implement such a plan? Why not just build pipelines to both Russian and Arabia; remain on good business terms with both and then benefit from it being a buyers market? The other way seems a bit risky and unnecessarily laden with political drama.

They'll do everything they can, to prevent eurasia from ever being a thing (the "bridge" between EU and russia...) https://pic8.co/sh/r7Cv6o.jpeg Remember what nixon and kissinger tried to prevent; the alliance between china and russia So evidently, a china russia EU de facto alliance, is even worse

It's still the same game, since the 19th century... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crimean_War
And the name of the game, is world domination
...
And US allies are terrified of the US I suspect... For good reasons
Thanks for those links. I heard of the World Island before from Brendan O'Connell's livestreams, but I wasn't entirely aware of the background. Actually, your comment reminded me a bit of his very insightful interpretations of world events.
I see what you mean about world domination; I was just thinking from the perspective of a government that wants to keep the lights on for its citizens, but of course there is a larger issue of alliances and progressive technological developments that persist outside and because of those basic concerns.
From listening to Brendan O'Connell I'm partially in agreement with him. I'm not thrilled about a multipolar world, then again, I'm not sure about what state the US is currently in. If BO'C is to be believed the Pentagon are currently running the US and Biden is just a figurehead. What does this mean for the rest of the world? Or even the US? Hopefully some intelligent and patriotic (not in the Israel sense) people are in charge, otherwise, well... who's to say.
Monopolies can't be a good thing, it might start as a good one for some reason, but then it's going to be retarded, the opposite of what it was supposed to be, it's only a matter of time. Think about it
I'm not sure the pentagon is in charge, I think 4 stars general are just as much of a bunch of puppets as politicians, however I do believe there's a global MIC, it's no longer limited to the US in terms of scope, the MIC went global
It's a cartel of western financiers and industrialists, for the most part, who are calling the shots IMO. It's them who can hand kick backs in the form of overly paid jobs for instance, to politicians and generals, once they are out of office. Jobs with surreal salaries, for little to no actual work. A golden salary and retirement plan most people don't even dare to dream about, scratch my back I scratch yours. That or once you're out of office, "they" regularly come and pay 5000 a head for a diner, to listen to you talk about the growth of the potato industry in the caribbean for 20 minutes, as if they could give two shits about it
