Its an act of war, Russia should define it as such. If Russia does not impose a significant cost the US it will eventually be destroyed. They need to punch america in the face as hard as they can, its the only thing those dumb slobs understand. Pain.
It's important to shed light on yet another very hostile act of the US empire but I wonder how much more impact it can have on Russia's already current customers. It's another reminder to the Russian leadership, not that they needed one, to exploit this golden opportunity that has revealed itself in regards to Iran. The US empire has no off ramp except for humiliating defeat or nukes.
One thought comes straight to mind: the stupidity of the “go slow” approach to the SMO, back in 2022. This decision and the more recent one of cozying up to Trump's Administration are worth removing Mr. Putin from power.
I distrust Galloway after he blocked me for politely sharing a contrarian view on Israel's recognition of Somaliland, which I did after also politely challenging him on his support of Somalia's Cold War-era leader Siad Barre, who literally betrayed the Soviets (Galloway's geopolitical heroes who he never tires of lionizing) during the Ethio-Somali War ("Ogaden War") by kicking them out and allying with the Americans:
I already had some strong disagreements with some of Galloway's takes but hadn't ever expressed them till then, which I finally decided to do since it was so surprising for me to see him idolizing what ultimately became the region's most fervently anti-Soviet leader in spite of his lionization of the Soviets. I now suspect in hindsight that he didn't know about Barre's geopolitical legacy and was just blindly virtue signaling "anti-Zionism".
After all, that cause is at the center of his worldview, and it's so important to him that he cannot ever publicly align with Israel no matter what it is that Israel does, ergo why he likely felt compelled to denounce Israel's recognition of Somaliland and idolize Barre, who Somalilanders hate for genociding their people during the Civil War that followed the Ethio-Somali War prior to their country's redeclaration of independence in 1991.
Anyhow, I consider this experience to be indicative of the sort of person who he is, namely an ideologue who virtue signals first and thinks later, only to sometimes feel embarrassed after jumping the gun and therefore reduced to blocking people out of shame. Anyone can think whatever they'd like about him, but I no longer respect him as a person and feel silly for not having realized what kind of person he was earlier.
The unasked-for, self-appointed sheriff of the world in action... How long is humanity going to take this? Quō ūsque tandem abūtēre, Catilīna, patientiā nostrā?
"the stupidity of the “go slow” approach to the SMO"
Where could have Putin found a fully equipped 1-2 million army ready to go? The RF cannot do another "Operation Bagration"
Other small details: russian voters are committed to consumerism and want butter more than guns, and russian young men are mostly only children or only male children.
So in March 2022 a platoon of RF tanks got to the outer range of Nikolaev but were pulled back not because of a "go slow" approach but because they had spread way too thin and were very vulnerable to flanking.
In the iranian SMO Israel+USA deployed nearly 500 combat planes the RF could hardly imagine to do that.
BTW the RF has one advantage: since it is designed as a defensive force it seems to have much better (relatively speaking) anti-aircraft abilities than the USA military that is designed as an invasion force (euphemism: "expeditionary").
My guess is the US congress is trying to develop Chinese tariff legislation after direct Executive Order action has been shot down by the Supreme Court. If it is going to pass is a big question because of the procedural rule of 60% quorum in the Senate.
After Saudis,Iran,Iraq Russia has the biggest supply of oil in the world. That makes them rich . Add to that gas supply that makes them energy rich. The DROP act is just another attempt to take Russia down. All those who invaded Russia LOST !!! Germany, France, Poland, Sweden. England, Turkey, Mongolia. The DROP Act seems to be another attempt that will fall flat on its face. Thje previously mentioned resulted in a strong KICK in the pants as Russia's good bye.
No - actually, in terms of production USA, Saudis and Russia are comparable. After these come the middle producers like Iraq, Iran, other Gulf states and Venezuela

113 dollars Brent....
How long western and especially european economy can stand this price?
So far it’s like an “annualized rate” of $2 trillion tax on the worlds total non oil GDP.

Quam diū etiam furor iste tuus nōs ēlūdet?
Like say Lukyanov the great lucid pundit, USA is on négociation mood.

So what does Russia propose to do about it?
McCaul and all the leadership in Texas is hardcore Zionists Dem Republican left and right
Not every Anti-Russian is a Zionist. A lot are anti-Zionists. For example, the Baltics, particularly the Lithuanians.
Wasn't talking about Russia, Mcaul is from Texas
You sure right the Gov if Texas was bragging about passing anti- Russia legislation
I was just mentioning that he's Anti-Russian, duh
