I was a bit hesitant to post this here because off-topic (related to Ukraine). But basically what this great analyst--who always relies on facts/numbers-- is saying that Europe, especially Germany, has screwed itself by so obediently following America over the Ukraine. Reuters too in its front page today talking about Germany's dire economy. @BHAN85
So maybe Kissinger's famous quote warning about America's friend has some truth in that.
Israel will be dumped like a hot potato once the candidates in the US Primaries won't be affected by AIPAC!
Israel was useful to USA in the 1970s to keep control under gulf oil rich countries. 1970s started with USA peak oil and end of USD gold standard.
But Iraq and Libya recent experiences show: world has changed, electronic espionage and drone killings allow to extract oil from countries sink in mayhem, order is not longer necessary, then Israel is not needed for USA neither.
Germany richness was useful for USA in the cold war to stop USSR communism spread.
It was not necessary anymore since 1991. And it's a problem when world come close to peak oil (and peak -any raw material-) in the 2020s.
Germany and EU keep working, but USA shale gas will last less than Russia natural gas, and when that will happen, then troubles will be harder between EU/Russia.
