Plutocracy is that form of government in which, instead of the people being represented by their elected officials, those with wealth "buy" the officials. Those officials then create laws and policies which produce obscene profits for the wealthy owners of corporations.
so with the US in great turmoil the Plutocracy that is our Current leadership has decided:
On November 27, the United States will host Israeli Prime Minister Olmert, Palestinian Authority President Abbas, along with the Members of the Quartet, the Members of the Arab League Follow-on Committee, the G-8, the permanent members of the UN Security Council, and other key international actors for a conference at the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland.
(Which by the way proves how close Martin O'Malley REALLY is to the Republican Leadership)
A peace summit? Really, read on.
Now conventional thought tells us that the Leaders of Palestine (Hamas), Iran and Syria support Terrorist, and that Israel is opposed to a peace accord with Iran and Syria over religious differences. In Fact we hear from Iran's president that only the abolishment of Israel will create peace in the middle east. So we are having a peace summit, with these leaders, Sans Iran of course, but is this really about peace in the middle East, or is it about profit.
So what is this meeting really about?
Why Oil of course.
There is no pipeline, no Oil, no power, on the Gaza Strip. So why would the powers to be want to give the Palestinians anything? well they don't this summit is not about peace. It is about Oil.
Where the pipelines do run, the governments are dependent on foreign rent payments for their economy, meaning they aren't going to cut this off.
Turkey, Syria, Lebanon, Jordon, they are not going to rock the boat because they would be cutting their own profits, the leaders I mean, not the general population. Because we are not the only country where Plutocracy has invaded and taken over the government. These leaders profit heavily from this pipeline. have they taken care of their poor, made their populations rich? No only a select few got rich, just like here.
In short it is an economic summit, designed to assist the Current Leadership of the pumping, refining and moving of oil, to continue to make money off Oil even though their oil reserves are drying up. that is why Syria has decided nto to come, and Hamas has said:
"Hamas' Gaza leader Ismail Haniyeh said Thursday that next week's U.S.-sponsored Middle East peace conference is stillborn and will achieve nothing for the Palestinians, as the London-based Arabic-language newspaper Al-Hayat reported that Syria has already decided not to attend the Annapolis, Maryland summit."
For Sometime I have been saying there is something else, something our leadership knows that they are not telling us. Something they are hiding, intentionally to keep us fired up, to keep the Muslims fired up, to keep the poor people of the middle east thinking that they should hate us,and let their children strap bombs to themselves. Keeping the British thinking that Tony Blair was GWB's lapdog. when in reality, this can all be traced back to Imperialist England.
And to a competition:
In the early part of the twentieth century, there was fierce rivalry between the three largest oil companies: Shell, Exxon, and British Petroleum.
* Henri Deterding, head of Shell, bought:
o oilfields in Egypt (In 1908)
o the Russsian Ural-Caspian oilfields (1910)
o Mexican oilfields belonging to Lord Cowdray (Weetman Pearson)
o Venezualan oilfields (which still produce a sixth of Shell's supplies)
o American oilfields
And to King Saud's Greed, (First King of Saudi Arabia)
In 1926, King Ibn Saud, the Muslim desert warrior, had conquered his rivals in Mecca and the Hejaz and named the whole territory, from the Persian Gulf to the Red Sea, Saudi Arabia, the only country to be named after its ruling family. One of King Saud's principal advisors was Harry St. John Philby, the Arabist who had quit the British Colonial Service out of disaffection. Philby had become a Muslim and was close to Saud. King Saud needed money to finance his enterprises and Philby suggested that he exploit his land's oil resources. Philby assisted Socal in getting the concession in 1933. King Saud received an immediate loan of thirty thousand pounds, with another twenty thousand pounds eighteen months later, and an annual rent of five thousand pounds, all in gold. Socal paid Philby a salary of one thousand pounds a year.
So knowing the roots, does that help the understanding of our current situation? Not really, because middle eastern oil is drying up. Here it is, a report regarding future of the oil reserves. Because after all since 1999:
Russia's petroleum production has increased 48 %, primarily on the back on flows from new wells. Producing 9 mm bpd of oil,Russia is the world's largest producer.
And that threatens all of us right? The kings of the Middle East will no longer have constant flow of money into their personal coffers, and the US and British will no longer be able to control oil prices. Russia will in charge of Oil?
OMG communism will have won the cold War and Regan will have just been a funny foot note! well not really, since the Russian Oil fields are dominated by Big Oil too. But the reason that this political and military maneuvering is necessary, is because the US does not want to deal with Russia for oil. Despite brief hopes for cooperation after the September 11th attacks, the US government has made it clear that it doesn't see Putin as a partner, and the US media has consistently painted Russia as a racist, undemocratic state.
the Report:
GAO report on Oil
Now after reading that, let's discuss what is happening with us in Iraq, are we really there for the Current Oil Reserves?
Barely, what we are really there for are the pipelines of tomorrow. The GAO Report tells us that the current oil reserves will dry up pretty fast.
With the old soviet Union having the best prospect for new oil, the historically dominate countries, Britian and the US, need a way to maintain control over the oil production in the world. And the Middle Eastern Friends, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Jordon, and Kuwait need a way to control the movement of the crude and refined oils. How do we manage that? Where are the refineries? Not in the Old Soviet Union. Map of Major refineries
Even soviet oil needs to get to the refineries, and everyone gets paid along the way right? To build it, to pump it to protect it. The Sanders Report details the plans for the new pipelines here, that needs to be coordinated with the other surrounding countries. So take a look at who needs to cooperate, Iraq, and Iran. Countries invited to talk about this cooperation (more like to put pressure on the smaller less rich countries) here in Annapolis? No Iran. Instead have you noticed how quiet they have become on Iran? that is because we will not invade until the Syrian Iranian pipeline is complete.
So while this meeting in Annapolis is billed as a Middle East Peace meeting, and we are "sold" by MSM on the Israeli conflicts with Hamas, and the war with Lebanon.
the meeting is not about Race, religion or creed. No Zionism, No Muslim Hating, No rise of communism, absolutely none of the reasons we are fed DAY to DAY are behind this 100 plus years of war.
You can trace "terrorism" directly to this map. the countries with no lines, well they have no oil, or pipelines. They have been "left out" of the profits,by their neighbors. By their own Royal Families, and then told it i the US causing their poverty.
It is the OIL, the money from the OIL and the money from the pipelines. Who has it, and Who does not.
Our Plutocratic leadership needs to STOP trying to sell us this bill of goods. You don't hear ANY of the front runners talking about ending this 100 + year war, because well hell. Clinton put this out in 1995: Executive Order Executive Order 12947—Prohibiting Selling Oil to Terrorist And the Palestinian leadership are named in this Order.
Most of them front runners take money form Big Oil. so I am sure they are told to "leave this one alone"
Big Oil really rules the world. Unless we finally pull off a national strike, or moratorium on oil, OR make sure we DO NOT VOTE IN ANYONE WHO TAKES BIG OIL MONEY, nothing will change.
The American Dependence,and now world dependence on oil, will keep these guys in power. And Very rich. The rest of us, well we have some choices to make don't we.
We have power in our vote, we need to vote carefully, and be wise in our decisions. We have the power in organizing Unions that would allow us to negotiate some of the laws these Plutocrats are passing behind our backs.
But right now, a Vote for ANYONE who takes big oil money, keeps this problem alive.
I will not name candidates, because that would start the bashing. We need to Vote as a Block, and vote together for the same candidate if we expect to end this Plutocracy.
If we do any less, if we do not stop the loyalty to the candidates who WILL NOT CHANGE THIS PARADIGM, then you have no right to complain. You can see who takes the money on Opensecreets.org. Check EACH candidate, both local and national,because even my Governor takes oil money. And he is an up and coming Democrat.
