You know the Great Fear: our leaders really ARE that stupid.

God protect us. Nobody else will.

From Martyanov:

Now observe how the myth of European industrialism of the last 50 years will be dispelled. It rested, actually, on three large pillars:

1. The relative benevolence of the United States towards European energy policies, which still didn’t preclude attempts of Reagan Administration to sabotage Soviet pipelines to Europe;

2. West Germany’s Ostpolitik initiated by Willie Brandt’s government and, successfully, continued by Helmut Schmidt;

3. And, of course, the USSR and now Russia is/was supplying very affordable energy to Europe.
