have been aware of this desire of Putin's since the 90s.

And cut a deal for state subsidizes Tesla cars and trucks and be done with this nonsense. If the Middle East wants 'modernize', they can get there of their own volition without outside interference.

"I think a hundred years ago, you guys were running around the desert cutting each other's heads off, and in another hundred years, you'll be back to doing the same thing. And in the intervening span of time, you will have wasted the greatest natural resource the planet has ever seen.'

of misinformation, conspiracy theory, and pseudo-left nonsense. In particular, it's from 2014 and pins an escalation of the Syrian civil war on a "Kerry-Abdullah secret deal".

Why would you do that?

My mind was thinking that and how to post without being called a Russian bot or the like.

known for his association with Lyndon LaRouche and prolific contributions to GR, RT, Asia Times, New Eastern Outlook, the Voltaire Network, and Veterans Today. That's four Russian, one antisemitic, and one pseudo-left outlets, all of them conspiracy sites as well. Almost a bingo card.

He's also an ex-peak oiler, climate change denier or minimizer, and abiogenic oil believer, among others. Looking at his last year of publication, I see more conspiracy theories than I knew existed in the last ten years. Here's a good one:"RussiaGate, the Mueller Investigation and the Clinton Foundation". I wonder where he's going with that one.

Oh, the 2011 Egyptian Revolution was orchestrated by Obama. Didn't know that, and I suppose most Egyptians would be surprised as well.
