Excellent Commentary All.............
Sometimes one needs to look at the core basics to discover the truth...
The truth is that Iraq...Iran...Kuwait...Qatar...Saudi Arabia...
have a substantial portion of the worlds oil reserves that are recoverable at 80 cents to $1.50 per barrel....
No where else in the world is this possible...
.................................................................................................
Whoever holds this natural advantage...in effect does actually control the current ability to produce efficiently....
Capitalism rightfully strives towards efficiency...
.......................................................................................
And it does not matter about the politics...Bush...a non Bush....politics...non politics.....nothing is going to change this fact...
And who has control of these assets in whatever fashion...in effect has control of the worlds economy....
Somebody is going to control it....
This is exactly what is at stake....
And the US and all the other interested countries can try any type of talk or legal paper shuffling they want....but the most efficient oil is..where it is....
And without oil...these countries would be like other Haitis....because of who they actually are....
Nothing more....nothing less....
...........................................................................................
The whole premise of the Bush Administration has concentrated on trying to maneuver to get some form of control of the oil market,,,,,
And no this is not conspiracy...it is the straightforward use of what tools are available to accomplish some form of control...
It is business...It is the energy business...It is the the securitization of US based capitalism.....
Wars...politics...laws...etc...are just tools that are used to get there....The US is using the military approach tool...rather than the enterprising tool.......
Is it right...Is it wrong ....you decide....
