I'm a great fan of Ted Postol, who is an MIT professor on this.
He thinks that the Patriot PAC-3 systems are possibly looking about 3% effectiveness.
And when it comes to hypersonic missiles, we've got no response whatsoever.
So suddenly we're making attacks that aren't very successful.
But in return, I say that because the E-3 have decided to respond to Russia's attacks, that they then take the gloves off.
and use hypersonic missiles, probably with conventional missiles, to do more damage.
And the thing that I would go after, especially as an energy expert, would be to do the same thing that they've done in Kiev and in Ukraine, which is to surgically start to undermine our energy infrastructure.
And I can tell you that a Resnick missile landing in a liquid natural gas terminal or an oil terminal in Milford Haven or Rotterdam would do extensive damage.
That would be bad enough.
But unfortunately, of course, because of the sanctions we placed on Russia in the first place about four years ago,
We've switched ourselves off from Russian oil, switched ourselves off from Russian gas, and that's 40% of our gas.
We've also, of the particular products, we've switched ourselves off to Russian diesel, who used to provide us with...
40% of Europe's diesel.
Now, as an energy expert, if you can explain to me how you can run a modern industrial society without diesel, then I'm all ears, but I don't know how to do it.
Diesel is critical for farming, for fishing, for food logistics, for construction, for running the other two primary energy sources, that's renewable energy and nuclear energy.
I could go on and on.
It really is the critical field, and we've switched ourselves off to it.
And of course, having switched ourselves off and increased our prices in Europe, which of course is having an effect on our economies, especially Germany's economy, we're now in the situation where the Strait of Hormuz is closed.
and so we've got a second wham on top of the first one so talk about being in a very very fragile position it's an extremely weak position not least because we import um about 12 million barrels a day into oil into into the european region um norway is reasonably self-sufficient in fact nor is completely self-sufficient and we get about 45 percent or so of our
hydrocarbons from the North Sea, although that's reducing.
