It's unclear if members of the Trump administration attempting to assign patriotic intentions to natural gas are aware of the silliness of the concept, but Rick Perry seems to believe in it.
"Seventy-five years after liberating Europe from Nazi Germany occupation, the United States is again delivering a form of freedom to the European continent," the energy secretary said earlier this month, according to EURACTV.
"And rather than in the form of young American soldiers, it's in the form of liquefied natural gas."

I'd laugh if the context wasn't so depressing.

Is this what one calls getting high on your own supply?

That takes out the need to lie about wars in the future. They can just call it a war for freedom and leave it ambigous.
