It's tempting to believe that the U.S. war machine is finished. Militarily, Iran has indeed dealt the U.S. their worst humiliation in modern history — one I covered in clinical detail.

But in the background, Washington has been quietly carrying out an armed robbery of the world's oil and gas supply. All of it.

This investigation is featured in my documentary film "Birth of the Petrogas-Dollar and the Pirate State." 

In just 90 days, the U.S. has executed an energy blitzkrieg decades in the making:

Hundreds of strikes on Russian tankers and refineries

Disrupting a third of China's oil and LNG supply

Capturing the largest oil reserves on the planet

Establishing a global naval blockade from the Arctic to the Indian Ocean

And in the process, kidnapped and assassinated two heads of state. We are witnessing the transition of the United States from an empire into a lawless Pirate State, and the birth of what I call the Petrogas-dollar or LNG-Dollar.

The timeline of this campaign speaks for itself:

Chaos Is the Objective

In the past, the United States were very sensitive to oil shocks. Closing the Strait of Hormuz would have been a catastrophe, as the U.S. couldn't produce enough oil to meet demand.

But today, they are the world's largest producers of oil, gas, and refined products, and the planet's top exporter of liquefied natural gas (LNG).

Many still buy into the old mantra that high oil prices are bad for the U.S., but the opposite is true. For the first time during a global shortage, the dollar isn't crashing while gold surges — it's the other way around. High energy prices aren't a threat to Wall Street anymore — they are in fact the objective.

It's no coincidence the U.S. became the world's #1 exporter of LNG after the Ukraine war. The gains were multifold: the U.S. went from supplying just 9% of Europe's energy to being Europe's number one source of coal, oil, and LNG.
