Typically, the American president has blurted out ‘the plain truth’ about what his government is doing around the world – from the Caribbean to the Arctic to the Black Sea and Indian Ocean: behaving like pirates. This week we review, taking into account Richard Medhurst’s excellent dot-connecting in his documentary ‘The Petrogas-Dollar: The Secret US Strategy Behind the Iran War’, the string of US and Israeli government moves this year to effectively ‘ring-fence’ the global flow of oil and gas.

As we’ve been warning for over a decade, the US was never going to just roll over in the face of Russian defiance regarding Crimea, Iranian resistance against Israeli expansionism, and Chinese ‘win-win’ geoeconomic strategy towards a multipolar world. They hatched a ‘counter-attack’, and Trump is playing his part to ‘make America great again’, which is really just to do whatever the US can to forestall or prevent the end of its currency’s status as ‘global reserve currency’.
