Inflammatory mRNA Nanoparticles Inhibit and Alter Immune Response: Pre-Print Study

 

BY Marina Zhang Epoch Times

 


 

A recent preprint study has shed light on why adverse events have been observed following a COVID-19 messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccination.

The study, led by researchers from Thomas Jefferson University, found that the lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) used to transport mRNA in COVID-19 vaccines could “inhibit” and “alter” immune responses in mice.

LNPs are shells of lipids that envelope mRNA to prevent degradation and detection by our body’s immune system.

LNPs are not mRNA, simply an envelope to transport the mRNA cargo.

Both the Pfizer and Moderna mRNA COVID-19 vaccines use LNPs to deliver mRNA spike protein sequences into human cells. Once human cells received the mRNA sequences, the cells will then manufacture spike proteins, triggering an immune response.

It was originally intended that the LNPs discreetly deliver mRNA sequences into the cells to produce spike proteins, and in doing so, form immunity against the COVID-19 virus.

However, many studies in mice have since found that the LNPs, claimed to be non-toxic and safe, are actually highly inflammatory.

These nanoparticles are highly durable and can last for 20 to 30 days in the body. While they persist in the body, it is likely they will continue to activate the immune system, leading to immune exhaustion and non-responsiveness.

The Thomas Jefferson study also shared similar findings. The researchers investigated how LNPs affect the immune system by injecting mice with the same LNPs used in Pfizer’s vaccines, and some mice were even double-dosed.

Inflammation and immune responses in mice are not sure signs that the same will happen in humans. Nonetheless, mice have long been used to test for safety and efficacy in drugs for human use; signs of immune problems are an indication of possible health risks in humans.   ... Continue reading >>>

Cancer expert says U.K. seeing spike in “non-covid deaths,” nobody willing to call out vaccine elephant in the room
Excess mortality in the United Kingdom is off the charts, and yet nobody is willing to call out Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) “vaccines” as the culprit. Cancer expert and Prof. Carl Heneghan describes the current situation in Great Britain as a “national scandal.” A shocking 9,300 more people than usual have died in the U.K. over the past several months, and officials are blaming everything else except the injections.

A newly published study from researchers in Sweden reveals that the immunity to COVID gained from vaccination, is dissipated by natural biological processes within months.

Vaccine shocker From Germany: "Out of ten autopsies, five deaths would be “very probably” linked to vaccines
A shocking report from respected German scientists claims out of 10 autopsies carried out on people who tested positive for COVID, five of the deaths were somehow linked to vaccines and the many observed side effects that occur soon after beople have been injected with COVID vaccine.

https://edbutt.blogspot.com/2021/08/why-well-informed-young-say-no-to-jab.html
Minutes of a US Food & Drug Administration advisory committee meeting titled, “Vaccines and Related Biological Products,” presented online on October 22, 2020, included a 27 slide powerpoint presentation by Steve Anderson, PhD, MPP Director, Office of Biostatistics & Epidemiology, Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER). Slide 16 of his presentation included a “DRAFT Working list of possible adverse event outcomes” associated with the imminent rollout of COVID-19 vaccines

Why the well-informed young say No to the jab
ABOUT a third of those aged 18-29 in England are shunning the Covid vaccine, despite massive inducements. It’s interesting to speculate on why this is. The Government is pressuring them into taking the jab through exaggerated claims about its safety and effectiveness; through accusations that they are selfish to refuse it; through pop-up clinics at football stadiums, circuses and music festivals, sometimes offering free food, and through threats that their hesitation will make vaccine passports and a return to lockdown more likely

1 in every 73 People Vaccinated Against COVID Was Dead by May 2022 in England according to UK Government
The latest week’s data for UK deaths, for the week to 12 August 2022, reports some 1,082 more people than would be expected for this period in a normal year died in the UK. These represent the so - called excess deaths so-called that during the fear and panic stages of the COVID saga were reported so gleefully. Yet now, with the scare narrative winding down, excess deaths in the UK have averaged 1,000 for 15 weeks of this year. Bizarrely this newsworthy story has gone completely unreported by mainstream media, leaving the alt_news community to get out news of what is really happening to the world.

The Truth Is Out: World Economic Forum Futurist: ‘We Just Don’t Need the Vast Majority of the Population’

 via Zero Hedge:

by Ben Bartee via The Daily Bell

Here’s a thought experiment: you own a factory, which you operate for the sole purpose of enriching yourself.

What do you do with old equipment after its usefulness expires, when you purchase new, more efficient tech? Do you cling to it with a sentimental attachment?

Or, out of practicality, do you ship it off to the proverbial glue factory, like the ruling pigs in Animal Farm literally did to Boxer the horse when he became too old to work – even after all he had done for the farm?

—————-

Klaus Schwab’s eugenicist lieutenant, Yuval Noah Harari – the Himmler to his Hitler – said the quiet part out loud in a recent TED interview.

“People realize — and they’re correct in thinking that — that, ‘The future doesn’t need me. You have all these smart people in California and in New York and in Beijing, and they are planning this amazing future with artificial intelligence and bio-engineering and in global connectivity and whatnot, and they don’t need me.'”

Listen to the interview in its entirety and note how often Harari, unprompted, compares humans to animals – monkeys, cows, etc.

The elites view us as an industrial resource, not peer citizens

Harari continues:

“If you go back to the middle of the 20th century — and it doesn’t matter if you’re in the United States with Roosevelt, or if you’re in Germany with Hitler, or even in the USSR with Stalin — and you think about building the future, then your building materials are those millions of people who are working hard in the factories, in the farms, the soldiers. You need them. You don’t have any kind of future without them.”

And here we arrive at the crux of the issue: we’re outdated machinery in their eyes.

“Now, fast forward to the early 21st century when we just don’t need the vast majority of the population because the future is about developing more and more sophisticated technology, like artificial intelligence [and] bioengineering.”

Harari explains that your only utility to the technocracy now is as a data reservoir:

“Most people don’t contribute anything to [artificial intelligence and bioengineering], except perhaps for their data, and whatever people are still doing which is useful, these technologies increasingly will make redundant and will make it possible to replace the people.”

The elites view themselves as Gods, bestowing and extinguishing life at will

The unelected WEF technocrats have anointed themselves transhuman demigods and bestowed upon themselves the concomitant ultimate power:

“Science is replacing evolution by natural selection with evolution by intelligent design, not the intelligent design of some god in the clouds, [but] OUR intelligent design, and the design of our ‘clouds’. These are the new driving forces of evolution.”
-Nuval Noah Harari

This is the megalomaniacal God Complex come to full fruition. This is unchecked ego, free of the constraints of the superego.

Wounded Ukrainian soldiers reveal steep toll of Kherson offensive - Washington Post

This story is brought to you by The Daily Stirrer under fair use terms, in the public interest. Such reports, which do not conform to the NATO / EU / UK narrative of Ukrainian vicories in the war are being censored on internet news sites by Big Tech in collaboration with government security agencies. 

 

SOUTHERN UKRAINE — In dimly lit hospital rooms in southern Ukraine, soldiers with severed limbs, shrapnel wounds, mangled hands and shattered joints recounted the lopsided disadvantages their units faced in the early days of a new offensive to expel Russian forces from the strategic city of Kherson.

The soldiers said they lacked the artillery needed to dislodge Russia’s entrenched forces and described a yawning technology gap with their better-equipped adversaries. The interviews provided some of the first direct accounts of a push to retake captured territory that is so sensitive, Ukrainian military commanders have barred reporters from visiting the front lines.

“They used everything on us,” said Denys, a 33-year-old Ukrainian soldier whose unit fell back from a Russian-held village after a lengthy barrage of cluster bombs, phosphorous munitions and mortars. “Who can survive an attack for five hours like that?” he said.

Denys and eight other Ukrainian soldiers from seven different units provided rare descriptions of the Kherson counteroffensive in the south, the most ambitious military operation by Kyiv since the expulsion of Russian forces at the perimeter of the capital in the spring. As in the battle for Kyiv, Ukraine’s success is hardly assured and the soldiers’ accounts signaled that a long fight, and many more casualties, lie ahead.

 

“We lost five people for every one they did,” said Ihor, a 30-year-old platoon commander who injured his back when the tank he was riding in crashed into a ditch.

Ihor had no military experience before Russia’s invasion of Ukraine on Feb. 24. He made a living selling animal feed to pig and cow farms. His replacement as platoon commander also has no previous military experience, he said.

The soldiers were interviewed on gurneys and in wheelchairs as they recovered from injuries sustained in the offensive. Some spoke on the condition of anonymity to avoid disciplinary action. Others, like Denys and Ihor, agreed to reveal only their first names. But most spoke plainly about the disadvantages they faced.

Russia’s Orlan drones exposed Ukrainian positions from more than a kilometer above their heads, they said, an altitude that meant they never heard the buzz of the aircraft tracking their movements.

Russian tanks emerged from newly built cement fortifications to blast infantry with large-caliber artillery, the wounded Ukrainian soldiers said. The vehicles would then shrink back beneath the concrete shelters, shielded from mortar and rocket fire.

Counter-battery radar systems automatically detected and located Ukrainians who were targeting the Russians with projectiles, unleashing a barrage of artillery fire in response.

Russian hacking tools hijacked the drones of Ukrainian operators, who saw their aircraft drift away helplessly behind enemy lines.

Ukraine has discouraged coverage of the offensive, resulting in an information lag on a potentially pivotal inflection point in the nearly seven-month conflict.

Battle for Kyiv: Ukrainian valor, Russian blunders combined to save the capital

When Ihor fired on Russian soldiers with his Kalashnikov rifle this week, he said, it was his first time shooting at a human being. “You don’t think about anything,” he said. “You understand, if you don’t do it, they will do it.”

Despite the challenges, Ihor said he is eager to return to the front line as soon as he heals. “My people are there. How can I leave them?” he said.

Other soldiers won’t be returning to the battlefield.

Oleksandr, a 28-year-old former construction worker, lost his arm in a mortar blast during the counteroffensive last week. He winced with phantom pain in his hospital bed on Sunday, saying he felt a sting from the fingers and hand that were no longer connected to his body.

Oleksandr said the Russian artillery fire was relentless. “They were just hitting us all the time,” he said. “If we fire three mortars, they fire 20 in return.”

The Ukrainian soldiers said they had to carefully ration their use of munitions but even when they did fire, they had trouble hitting targets. “When you give the coordinates, it’s supposed to be accurate, but it’s not,” he said, noting that his equipment dated back to 1989.

Oleksandr had never traveled to Kherson before the war, but he said the goal of expelling Russian invaders was worth sacrificing a limb. “It’s our country,” he said.

President Volodymyr Zelensky said that Ukraine’s forces retook two villages in the Kherson region, and one of his aides posted an image of the Ukrainian flag being hoisted over the village of Vysokopillya over the weekend.

“Ukrainian flags are returning to the places where they should be,” Zelensky said in a video address. But it was impossible to gauge what progress Ukrainian forces have made in their push to expel the Russian invaders from Kherson.

The region, which was captured by Russia earlier in the war, forms a crucial part of Russian President Vladimir Putin’s coveted “land bridge” to Crimea, the peninsula that Russia invaded and annexed in violation of international law in 2014.

Russian electronic warfare also posed a constant threat. Soldiers described ending their shifts and turning on their phones to call or text family members — a decision that immediately drew Russian artillery fire.

“When we turn on mobile phones or radio, they can recognize our presence immediately,” said Denys. “And then the shooting starts.”

Despite the ban on media visits to the front line, there were signs that Russia’s grip on Kherson might be loosening.

In fiercely contested Kherson, Ukraine pushes to retake occupied lands

In a statement on Monday, a Kremlin-backed occupation authority said that plans for a staged referendum in the Kherson region, a precursor to Russian annexation, were put on hold due to security issues. The Russian statement was later walked back, but it gave the Ukrainians optimism and suggested that, at the least, the counteroffensive was causing some disarray for the Russians.

Has Putin Has Pushed Europe Into Economic Depression, Hyperrinflation and Currency Collapse?

 

Though it was entirely predictable and indeed had been expected for some time, the news over the weekend that the Nord Stream 1 pipeline which feeds gas from Russia to northern Europe via The Baltic route had been shut down completely by The Kremlin in retaliation for the continued financial and military support given by NATO and EU member states to Ukraine in the conflict with Russia. The European Commission, governing body of the EU, immediately put the community on something close to a war footing, imoing war economy style regulations. Russia then made clear its position, that unless sanctions are dropped, no gas will *ever* flow through Nord Stream 1 again. The potential economic damage began immediately as the EURO ( € ) dipped below US$0.99 for the first time in 20 years.


Nord Stream pipeline pumping station (Picture: insurancejournal )
Benchmark Dutch TTF gas was up hugely at first before closing ‘only’ 17% higher on open recognition that while much bad news is now priced in, Europe is really in the economic war this blog has warned of since February, just days after Russian troops crossed the border into Ukraine.

Russia’s move is so blatant as to amount to an official declaration of war. There is no way European propaganda can spin this as a temporary situation due to ‘technical issues’ with the pipeline.  This is a case of Putin and Russia's allies holding a gun to NATO and the EU’s head, such is the extent of European dependence on Russian natural gas. So was OPEC+ agreeing on a token 100,000 barrel a day cut to production. So was Iran saying no to the nuclear deal unless the IAEA backs off from investigating the serious breaches of the last nuclear deal it didn’t stick to.

Assuming Europe cannot retreat from its current total committment to prolonging the war in Ukraine by continuing to provide the neo - Nazi nutters in Kiev with money and military hardware, that means a severe recession with very high inflation, and if anything were to happen to gas flows via Ukraine, which could easily occur as Russia has not yet deployed its air power in this conflict, Europe would need to make swingeing cuts to energy consumption in order to avoid unplanned ‘gas outs’ and electricity rationing. 

German Economy Minister Robert Habeck  said: “Expect the worst.” As mentioned yesterday, existential choices now need to be made, because due to political virtue signalling 'net zero' pledges made by NATO and EU governments, and foolhardly transitioning to unreliable and intermittent 'sustainable' energy sources there may not enough energy to go round. It is time for politicians to stop sucking up to the unwashed crustries of the green lobby and prioritise the needs of the people.

First, Germany is to delay mothballing some nuclear reactors – so common sense at gunpoint.  

It is unlikely Europe and the UK will not ration energy because it means the staggering bills already being seen will continue to rise, and then stagflation, incession, or ‘inpression’ (an inflationary depression). They may instead subsidize businesses and households even if that means wholesale energy prices march even higher. Whether any will have the testicular fortitude to admit the folly of the past two decades and recommission coal and gas fired generators really depends on the extent of the public backlash.

Germany’s latest EUR65bn energy bailout is already providing such a subsidy but the trouble with such stop - gap policies is they only kick the can down the road; so will Sweden’s and the Netherlands’ measures, and France’s and Spain’s: and Brussels is talking about an EU-wide energy price cap. Only part of these subsidies will flow from windfall taxes on the energy companies which are raking in vast profits from the current shortages. Taxes also remove the industry capital needed to invest in new energy supply. New UK PM Liz (Chuckie)Truss, just selected with an underwhelming 57% mandate of a tiny Tory electorate, has also floated Covid-furlough sized spending to cap business and household energy bills; and huge tax cuts; and a 2.5% trend GDP growth rate target. Good luck with the latter.

Borrowing or printing money to pay for imported energy (in dollars), while running rising twin deficits is a great way to destroy one’s currency – which means higher inflation, and not transitory currency weakness but permanent inflation and the destruction of people's savings and pensions.

So we see that while mainstream media in Europe and North America continues to push the 'Ukraine is winning' narrative to justify the huge cost to western nations of supplying Ukraine with high tech weapons and ammunition, an objective analysis of the real war reveals that as long as Russia can continue to provide the distraction on the ground in Ukraine to deflect the attention of citizens of Ukraine's allies, economically Putin and his allies are destroying the west and further shifting the balance of geopolitical power to the east.

As the war in Ukraine grinds on and Russia steps up its economic war against the west and in particular The European Union, claims made recently by the idiotically 'woke' leaders of Europe's main economic and military powers that the West has a once-in-a–generation chance to severely weaken Russia’s capabilities, both militarily and geopolitically, look increasingly hollow. Putin's critics have cited 'Western unity' as one of the main reasons why Russia will be economically destroyed and politically humiliated when the Ukraine's military finally claim victory.

European Union Is Again Close To A Meltdown As Eurozone Economy Collapses
Once more we return to the political instability and economic fragility of the European Union as the conflict in Ukraine combined with loonytoons Climate Change mitigation policies, the failure of 'sustainables' to meet ever increasing demand for electricity, fod shortages and rampant price inflation put economic and social pressure on governments of member states ...

Debunked: The Great Renewable Green Delusion
The war in Ukraine has not caused the global energy crisis of early 2022 byt merely exacerbated it. Currently the nations currently in conflict with Russia over its incursion into Ukraine are those which are most dependent for their energy needs on Russian oil and gas. And now their loonytoons 'net zero' green energy policies have failed they are biting the hand that feeds them.

Putin, Macron To Hold Urgent Talks To Halt Military Escalation In Ukraine
Even though the leaders of Ukraine itself are talking down the threat of war with Russia over the breakaway region of Donbas, America and Britain are still beating the war drums and demonising Russian leader Vladimir Putin. Russia insists they have no plans to invade Ukraine and one western leader at least, France's Emmanuel Macron, seems to be listening to messages coming out of the East European trouble spot...

British Government Laundered Fake U.S. 'Intelligence' On Ukraine
The British government on Saturday accused Russia of organizing a plot to install a pro-Moscow government in Ukraine, as the Kremlin masses troops near the Ukrainian border. The U.K. Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office gave relatively little information about the intelligence unveiled Saturday other than to say that the Russian government was considering trying to make a Russia-leaning former member of Ukraine’s parliament, Yevhen Murayev, the country’s new leader.

Net Zero Is A Dangerous Fantasy, But Scientists Believe In Fairies It Seems
With oil and gas prices rocketing and the highly propted sustainable energy sources performing way befow expectations the energy crisis currently gripping Europe (with worse to come as food shortages start to bite, polticians still seem more intent on pandering to the green lobby and chasing the dream of a fossil fuel free world rather securing the energy and food supplies needed by the people they serve.

A Mostly Wind- & Solar-Powered US Economy Is A Dangerous Fantasy
When President Biden and other advocates of wind and solar generation speak, they appear to believe that the challenge posed is just a matter of currently having too much fossil fuel generation and not enough wind and solar; and therefore, accomplishing the transition to "net zero" will be a simple matter of building sufficient wind and solar facilities and having those facilities replace the current ones that use the fossil fuels.

Do We Have A Winter Of Civil Disobedience Ahead?
As many people in Britain slap on the apres sun gloop in the wake of what passes for a heatwave in these cool cloudy climes, our inept politicians caught with their pants down by unusual weather as usual have heard that that winter is coming and are making plans for a coldwave. We are in the grip of an energy crisis at the height of summer. Last week, it was reported that the UK government is laying down plans for a “reasonable worst-case scenario” including blackouts for industry and even households. And this is as energy prices spiral out of control to new records every day.

The Truth About Coal And The Lies Of The Elite
So much for all the COP 26 banter late last year. Let me remind you. The elites all flew in on their private jets and promptly told us we’re all (royal we) getting off fossil fuels and killing coal.So how’s that turning out? The usage of coal is now at record highs:

Official Advice - Prepare For Blackouts This Winter

The UK government is putting plans together for days of organised blackouts this winter, in what they call a "reasonable worst-case scenario" for energy shortages, according to reports in manstream media. Naturally they are blaming this on the embargo on importing gas from Russia but in reality Britain has never imported any more than a small amout of its gas from Russia. The real reason politicians and energy company CEOs are panicking is entirely due to their obession with obtaining all our energy from intermittent sources like wind and sunshine ...

"Revolution Has Begun": 75,000 Brits Plan To Stop Paying Power Bills In Protest At Energy Rip Off
Resistance is growing to spiralling domestic energy costs in Britain as more than 75,000 irritated people in the UK have pledged not to pay their electricity bill this fall when prices jump again. 

If the government & energy companies refuse to act then ordinary people will! Together we can enforce a fair price and affordable energy for all," tweeted "Don't Pay UK," an anonymous group spearheading the effort to have more than one million Brits boycott paying their power bill by Oct. 1.

Is Russia Selling Its Oil To The World Through An Obscure Egyptian Port?
As this blog predicted when NATO and EU member states shot themselves in the foot by reacting to Russia's invasion of Ukraine with sanctions that prevented Russia from selling oil, gas and vital raw materials to the countries that needed them most, the NATO and EU member states, the Russians have had no problems finding alternative customers for their gas and oil and no problem getting oil into the world's commodity markets through the back door.

Bizarrely commentators in mainsteam and online news services portrayed this as a sign of weakness by Russia, though the same people cheered when Joe (Dementiaman) Biden threratened a nuclear response if Russia crossed his 'red lines' in Ukraine ...

We The Good Guys Versus They The Bad Guys Reporting Does Not Make Sense For The Ukraine Crisis
Mainstream media reporting of the conflict in Ukraine has disappointed. Perhaps I was naive to suppose that lessons might have been learned from the hits their print sales and online traffic rates took as a result of their handling the COVID pandemic But instead of focusing on the most obviously newsworthy aspect of the build up to and escalation of the war, Russia’s view of NATO expansion into Ukraine and even further to Georgia and Kazakhstan, news reports have simply demonised Russia and portrayed Ukraine as the good guys.

Boris and Biden Can't Blame Ukraine War For Energy Crisis
With typical arrogance and condescension towards the people who elected them Boris Johnson, Joe Biden and their respectiive presstitutes are trying to spin the energy crisis Europe and North America are currently facing as somehow being linked to the conflict in Ukraine and therfore blame is being attactched to Russia and Vladimir Putin. Do they really think we are stupid enough to believe such unmitigated bollocks? ...

Even If The War In Ukraine Ends, Sanctions Will Stay - So How Bad Will The Food Crisis Get?
Western leaders, desperate to show their own countries they were taking a firm stance on Russia's invasion of Ukraine, were quick to impose economic sanctions ... so quick in fact that they acted before they had though things through. While freezing Russia out of the global finance system they have exacerbated the wests energy crisis, while Russia's retaliatory ban on raw materials (fertiliser) exports will create extra problems on top of those we already had ...

Europe's Depleted Gas Storage Might Not Get Refilled Ahead Of Next Winter
While mainstream news reporting of the conflict in Ukraine continues to pump out a torrent of anri - Russia, pro - war propaganda the catastropic effects of this war that could so easily have been avoided are not mentioned. Well why would warmongering governments admit they have inflicted an energy crisis, food shortages and soaring living costs on their people for no good reason ...

Europe Suffers In Biden's Proxy War

by Phil T. Looker, 3 September 2022


We are in a game of chicken with Russia , while the proxy war with Russia the hawks in Washington DChave yearned for these past twenty years is being fought in Ukraine, to the immense cost in cash of taxpayers in the USA and NATO member states and in lives for the citizens of Ukraine, Russia, aided by China, India, Pakistan, Brazil, Iran, Turkey and many other large population nations that have not joined in the western sanctions, is desroying the pro - Ukraine alliance economically.

Our leaders are all totally insulated from the consequences of getting involved, even indirectly, in this conflict, they have no skin in the game, until the next round of elections

Biden (or his administration) has been responsible to a large degree in encouraging Putin to invade Ukraine, because shutting off the XL pipeline caused the recent oil price surge. The late Senator John McCain said this of Russia: “Russia is an old gas station, masquerading as a country”. All Russia does is oil and gas , plus some raw materials too.That somewhat understates the range of the Russian economy but there is some truth in it. Russia exports raw materials and grain.

The way to undermine Putin’s ambitions is to open up the oilfields and gas fields so eagerly abandoned by the west in our leaders eagerness to earn green kudos from the tree huggers. Drill for oil, frack for oil and gas, recommission wells closed and capped because in the face of cheap Russian imports they were unprofitable. Get the oil  and gas prices down and ensure energy stability with controls in place to ensure that spinless politicians, fearful of upsetting the noisy but numerically insignificant eco - warrior contingent can never again make us dependent on a potentially hostile power for the means to keep ourselves warm and well fed. This is where demented Joe Biden and cunt - struck Boris Johnson have made a series of enormous mistakes, and Biden in particular has handed Putin on a platter a lot of financial power.

When oil prices got to U$150 a barrel in 2008, Putin took Georgia. Oil prices settled but then in 2014 the price went to U$100, and Putin annexed Crimea. With the fracking revolution under first Barack Obama (in betrayal of the idealogues who voted for him,) and then  Donald Trump led to the USA being self sufficient in oil and natural gas, the oil price dropped to between U$25 to U$45 a barrel. You never heard from Putin.

In the past year the oil price has jumped from U$50 to U$100 and Putin made around U$85bn in profit from that. He is using that money to finance his war in Ukraine. The lesson is ‘crank uo the oil pumps and open the gas taps.' 

Biden and Boris Johnson have been doing exactly the reverse in pursuit of unrealistic 'net zero' policies. Johnson refused to issue more oil and gas licences in the North Sea, fracking is still in limbo, and the enormous reserves around the Outer Hebrides are untapped. Johnson (or whoever suceeds him now he has been disgraced,) and Biden by keeping oil and gas in short supply and price high, are helping Putin.

America could produce 15m barrels of oil a day, but currently is only pumping 11.5m Why? More oil in the market and the price goes down and Putin is stuck in Ukraine.The North Sea, with 24 billion barrels of oil left in known reserves and estimates of another 40 billion yet to be exploited,  could make Britain self sufficient in oil and gas for at leasy half a century, and our islands still stand on a foundation of high quality coal 

The answer to thwart Putin is to get the oil price down. Reinstate the Keystone pipeline, get drilling in Alaska, the North Sea and Outer Hebrides. 

However none of this will be allowed in 'woke' world. The people acting as puppeteers of poor demented Joe Biden are intent on humiliating Russia, wrecking the Russian economy and engineering the overthrow of Vladimir Putin, with the added bonus that once these goals are achieved their corporate, globalist cronies will be able to step in and 'annexe' Russia's massive mineral, hydrocarbon and metal resources. 

Putin's regime may be odious but he is popular in Russia and the economy is doing just fine. A large and increasing balance of payment surplus, strongest currency bar none this year, declining inflation, massive gold reserves and an absence of sovereign debt combines with those natural resources and a well organised agricultural sector make Russia virtually unassailable to external actions such as economic sanctions and trade embargos. The Kremlin circumvents NATO / EU sanctions by selling petrocarbons to India and China for much more than before the war; (some of which is then resold to Europe for a healthy profit for the counties!). 

 Meanwhile our sanctions on Russia have created huge hikes in energy inflation threatening the shut down of the UK/European countries creating mass unemployment and poverty. Meanwhile Putin works closely with China and other BRICS countries to work on a new payment system bypassing SWIFT sanctions - oh and now Saudi is flirting with joining the BRICS club. Putin is a very capable opponent, and our policies are harming us much worse than it is harming him.
