Quote from libertad:
Iran has to sell oil...and prefers it to be expensive rather than cheap...
The Bush Cheney OIL team....have accomplished a 20 to 40% premium in the price of oil by its war policy approach...Not everyone in the US is unhappy economically....especially the Bush oil cronies...
The sabre rattling between Iraq...Iran...Venezuela...simply accomplishes the Bush Cheney reason for being in office...
Making Oil Cronies Wealthier Worldwide.....
The worst case is that the oil buddies get better prices...and hopefully control of a lot of oil...
Win win in either case...for the oil buddies...
Oil will drop $10 to $30 when these oil guys are forced/leave office....hopefully in handcuffs......
Pretty soon its...who doesn´t have the bomb??....and how do you know who really does/does not??....
Political enrichment....end of story.......
Basically a Bush/Cheney deferred payment plan....very sloppily done...but done....
Venezuela is next...Bush´s poppy has been in the Carribean with James Baker meeting Cisneros...and the military is setting up new encampments supposedly building small medical clinics...
Uh huh...building them with helicopters...artillary....tanks....you know...everything a small medical clinic needs...
There will be plenty of juicy and legal news that will keep oil prices far above what would be normal in a ¨no war ¨policy period....Enjoy Bush cronies enjoy...and hey Bush don´t forget to add another $10 million supplement to the alternative fuels program....make sure that it´s in all the bigger papers....
Iran and Bush have one common love....
HIGHER AND SUSTAINED OIL PRICES....
FY....LOL...SOB....

So you think Bush and Iran are really "buddies" working to get oil higher. I've heard some nutcase theories, but this just about takes the cake.
....................................................................................................
No...Bush is not an Iran buddy....his buddy is ¨high oil prices¨....
If you think for a moment that Bush/Cheny were not aware of higher oil prices to be precipitated by their war policies...
Then one is very very naive.....

However....of course this type of maneuvering never takes place in politics....
Yeah.....lol
Quote from taodr:
LIBERTAD. You are somewhat naive ! While it's true Bush cronies are profiting from high oil prices, in fact the american people as a whole are. Military equipment
is by far the biggest export of the US and the same goes for Britain and France. The more money the oil suppliers make the more money they are spending on the latest weapons and planes to defend themselves. Russia and China are soft pedaling Iran because they are selling weapons to them. Some Arab countries are stomping over each other to get purchase agreements for military equipment. Even backwater african dictators are sucking up american weaponry which is mysteriously "slipped" into the black market.
Quote from taodr:
No, I am saying america needs the money that they take in selling weaponry. Maybe desparately. They will push the oil price up until every country that exports oil figures it has enough weapons. It's the shits but it is reality.
