I was thinking of the Caspian oil too, now that we are in a period where Putin has to take notice that the pressure on the U.S. is easing up (oil prices). I think Putin and his thugs may have played a role in the price run up in oil. Coordinated effort involving Russia, Iran, and Venezuela. The Chinks probably figured it would be a good time to go on a buying binge for oil, just as a way to help their comrades out – maybe do some serious harm to our economy and maybe even affect the outcome of our election. The BIG PRICE: Obonga wants to end the missile defense program. Now WHO is going to benefit the most from that????

The three amigos, that’s who: Russia, Iran, and China
