I recently read a new book titled "The Oil Card." It was very revealing. I would suggest that tax slaves, enlisted service people and their families sit down before reading this book. Also, those that still believe we need 700 military outposts around the world to defend our shores.
It seems the untold story of Iraq is that before the Bush crime family and their supporters decided to occupy Iraq the U.N sanctions were about to be lifted. So far no surprise yet, huh?
Well, it seems that Saddam Hussein was about to go Euro and was negotiating with China to purchase all his oil reserves. The plan was to ship hundreds of Chinese workers in to take care of oil extraction. Oh no! the Bush crime family said, we can't have that so we need to cook up a story to legitimize the invasion for the Boob American Taxpayer.
Oh, I know, we will use our corporate press to make Saddam the most horrible leader since Stalin. Next, we will sell all the progressives and the weak-kneed conservatives that we are nation building after we first blow the hell out of the old nation. Such a deal.
Manipulating oil prices is the weapon of choice. It's all smoke and mirrors. It's how the people in La Cesspool grandee (Washington, D.C.) and the oil companies keep your young people employed in the military and out of the unemployment line back home.
That's the method the big boys used to bring down the Soviet Union. Now they are using it to bring down Putin and the China boys. Sounds good until you notice they are bringing you down, too. Keep smiling!
