...of the 1940's, since the motivation for that war was access to oil after the US embargoed oil to Japan, leading Japan to drive for Java, protecting its flank as it did so by destroying the American fleet at Pearl Harbor.

Unfortunately, if I were to watch the video, I'm fairly sure, almost to the point of certainty, it would involve a journalist definition of "green energy" which is generally so called "renewable energy," which is decidedly not "green." So called "renewable energy" is dependent on access to fossil fuels as well as increasingly rare minerals, and thus is subject to geographic constraints.

Until we understand what "green energy" is - and journalists don't in 99+% of cases - railing against fossil fuels is rather meaningless.

Fossil fuel wars are always justified to the general public as being about nuclear weapons - a concern that is always made up, invented, and not a real concern. The wars are then fought using fossil fuel weapons of mass destruction, in most cases killing more people than died from nuclear weapons in the only nuclear war ever observed, this over 80 years ago.

North Korea developed nuclear weapons and the world yawned. North Korea doesn't have oil. That's why no one has bombed it.

It never stops.

And whenever North Korea is mentioned, I tend to think of President Carter. He was a negotiator who always did his homework - both in and out of office. And during the Clinton administration he was asked to meet with then-leader Kim Il-sung (Kim Jong-un's grandfather) to de-escalate a nuclear crisis. And Jimmy Carter did his research and went in knowing what it took to succeed - and what the North Korean leader wanted and expected was respect. So that's what Carter gave him and he succeeded. In fact, when Clinton left office the leader was confused and disappointed that he would no longer be dealing with Secretary of State Madeleine Albright. And that agreement held until George W. Bush* included North Korea in his "Axis of Evil," and North Korea as been adversarial ever since.
