It is almost like an economy that gets most of its revenue from oil and gas would want oil and gas price to go up so that it makes more money.

You would almost think high oil prices hurt the US and West more than it hurts Russia.

That can't be the case though because we have such brilliant and competent leaders that have thought through all the variables as opposed to making rash emotional decisions because they are also addicted to social media like the general population.

What is the other ship in that photo?
