Joe Biden Makes: A Disaster Gas Pipeline Blunder Poem by Terence George Craddock

Joe Biden Makes: A Disaster Gas Pipeline Blunder

Rating: 5.0


there are people who believe
that oil and gas prices have nothing
to do with politics; that Presidents

in powerful countries
do not influence oil prices
some people think it is

all due to greedy oil companies

quick review the Israeli Leviathan
Gas Field off the coast of Israel
the changing political influences

Israeli Leviathan Gas Field
quoting the start of the article
'While serving as vice

president under Barack Obama,
Joe Biden emerged as a vocal
supporter of the Eastern Mediterranean

gas pipeline that would connect Israel's
offshore gas reserves to Europe.
The long-planned project that would

run from Israeli waters through Cyprus
and Greece, then onwards into Europe,
had bipartisan support in the US.''

roll in 2020 with the backing
of former president Donald Trump's
administration; three countries

signed an agreement aiming
to complete the roughly $6 billion
pipeline by 2025; but President

shifty Joe Biden had a change of heart?

US officials informed Israel
and Greece that the US would
no longer support the project;

citing environmental concerns
over impacts at odds with Joe's
admin move dumping fossil fuels...

the Council on Foreign Relations
said it was "a bizarre thing"
for Biden's administration to tell

its allies that it no longer supported
the pipeline given the timing and optics...
a strange oil barrel policy reversal

Europe left energy dependent on Putin Russian gas
leaves Putin with his gas pipeline war trump card
leaves green light on for future Ukraine invasion?

I would be happier if I could just write fun poems like 'What Can Be Achieved In A State Of Tired? ' and 'Mountains Of Track Yet To Pass', but the truth has so few voices, lies often media giant backing.

P3 to write her wondrous achievements, has since resigned and skipped the country, sadly the truth globally is being slaughtered and labeled hate speech, protesters arrested

sadly we do have censorship though, the truth is deactivated when it might offend; it is a serious responsibility to write the elusive truth, it is tone used and opposing political sides which offends, the truth pleases few
