For too long now, the Putin regime has been terrorizing Eastern Europe, Central Asia and the West with energy warfare, little different from what Al Qaeda does with bombs.  At last, though, the tide seems to be turning on this pathetic last-ditch effort of the Russian Kremlin to once again dominate the globe.

At the recent World Gas Conference in Buenos Aires, the world learned that exciting new sources of natural gas are being developed in response to rising prices, which in turn in part result from Russian energy terrorism.  The Telegraph reports:  “If the new forecasts are accurate, Gazprom is not going to be the perennial cash cow funding Russia’s great power resurgence. Russia’s budget may be in structural deficit.”
