    so it seems Russia is threatening an attack on the ICC. I would say this is very close to blowing up and when it does we will be short on oil to fight a war. We will suffer shortages before our military does. Our current leadership is blind to national security needs of the situation. This could escalate while we will be caught with our pants down.

    The ICC is a joke, and the USA and Israel have turned their backs on the ICC whenever it suits their purposes. Anyone threatening the ICC with a missile attack shows how insane they are.

    Aren't we a net oil exporter? Didn't Biden just approve more drilling in Alaska?

    Give it a rest, dude.

    If you think we are secure in the necessary oil to sustain an economy and fight a war you are wrong.

    I don't know what you're basing this on. It just sounds like right-wing fear mongering designed to make voters very afraid and drive them to the polls to vote Republican, their only salvation from certain doom at the hands of the Democrats.

    What percentage of oil does iran, and Russia provide to the world market? Those two countries would definitely not be supplying us with oil in the event of war., and possibly more countries as well. If we don’t offset the loss we will not have the needed oil.

    We've already cut them off.. Though I think they cheat and use intermediaries to get some of it to us anyway.

    This is a weird thing to get hung up on, and it's not even a part of the story in your OP. I mean, what is your point here? What does Medvedev talking **** about the ICC have to do with oil supplies in the event of war? Are you not aware that he posts something about nuking someone or something at least once a week? It's how he tries to stay relevant.

    The ICC is as impotent as the UN. And that's VERY impotent.

    If we aren't a net exporter yet, we are on course to be very soon.

    Good. How much wilderness does this business have to spoil?

    Drilling can be done in ways that leave the environment intact. But I love to see you are in lockstep with losing our energy security

    Biden hater just be that- “Biden haters”. I do not agree with 90% or more of Biden’s domestic policies but that does not give me or anyone else license to hate “Old Joe”.

    Wait.... is that a threat? Do they think that's threatening? No one gives a **** about the Hague.
    FFS do they not realize that anti war crimes laws and morays are the only things keeping them alive?

    Actually, no, restrictions Biden has put on fracking as well as pressure put on oil companies not to drill by charging them high interest rates on loans justifying it via D.E.I. ratings is making that extremely difficult. It is greatly hampering domestic energy production and it Democrats are doing this very intentionally.

    Sorry, it is E.S.G. ratings not D.E.I.. Leftists do come up with lots of stupid acronyms to justify political interference with private businesses. The sooner both are outlawed the better.

    Libs don't use English. They use acronyms... its an essential ingredient to fostering the confusion they need to grow into CHAOS and destroy everything America has built.
