Did Trump Betray the Arab Gulf States? Europe in Panic Mode Over Iranian Bombing of World’s Largest LNG Plant in Qatar
Iran fulfilled their threat to start bombing oil refineries in the rich Arab Gulf states late last night, after the U.S. and Israel bombed the South Pars Gas Field in Iran. Iran bombed Ras Laffan - the world's biggest natural gas plant, in Qatar, as well as other energy sites in the Gulf. This was headline news in Europe today, as Europe imports most of their Liquid Natural Gas (LNG) from Qatar. I personally talked to a friend of mine in Italy today, and he said the Italians are in near panic mode about the cost of energy, and that these actions caused by Trump and Israel are now unifying all of Italy's political parties together in unison against Trump, including their Prime Minister, Giorgia Meloni, who was recently a strong Trump supporter. In the U.S., Reuter's is reporting that the attack has wiped out 17% of Qatar’s LNG capacity for up to five years. The U.S. financial publication Bloomberg reported today that after the attack on Qatar's LNG plant, orders are now starting to come into the U.S. to replace this loss. Wasn't this the plan all along? Let Iran bomb the Arab Gulf States rich in oil who are all turning to the Petrol Yuan away from the Petrol Dollar, and then force Europeans to buy their energy from the U.S. at a premium. It is the same strategy/philosophy from a few of years ago when the U.S. sabotaged the Nord Stream pipeline carrying Russian oil into Europe.
