RE:LOL... You going to Blame Russia for cutting off Gas supplyRagingBull3 wrote: if they are outed from SWIFT???? What you expect Russia to keep given gas to hostile countries for Free???? Who do you think they are, Canadians???? Canadians sell their oil for Negative Prices to the USA. Somehow, I don't think Russia that stupid.
All just my opinion/view/thinking
If I was Putin and Russia got kicked out of SWIFT and knowing I have about 650 billion in gold from getting a high price for my oil over the past year or so, I would suddenly "discover" that one of my natural gas pipelines to Europe has a leak and I need to shut it down pending an investigation. Better yet I would close one of the pipelines going through the Ukraine and blame the leak on sabotage by the Ukrainians.
