and how are cleantech agendas going to account for fertilizer and other trade resources going through the strait of Hormuz?
What this exposed is the Epstein class willing to sacrifice the global economy for their imperialistic agenda and disregard for international law, which makes the world more dangerous place for everyone.

Or you can turn that around and it indicates that an integrated global petroleum system is a deterrent to large scale conflict because of the impact on the global economy.
If countries have energy independence, that opens the door to war with less consequence.

People were saying this for over a decade and were labelled by the political establishment as “idealists” while people unable to plan for the future upholding a broken and dangerous status quo were self-styling themselves as “pragmatists”. Same thing going on today.
