Oil's Iraq deals are the greatest stick-uP
MUst read whole article..
Once oil passed $140 a barrel, even the most rabidly rightwing media hosts had to prove their populist credibility by devoting a portion of every show to bashing Big Oil. Some have gone so far as to invite me on for a friendly chat about an insidious new phenomenon: "disaster capitalism." It usually goes well - until it doesn't.
For instance, "independent conservative" radio host Jerry Doyle and I were having a perfectly amiable conversation about sleazy insurance companies and inept politicians when this happened: "I think I have a quick way to bring the prices down," Doyle announced. "We've invested $650bn to liberate a nation of 25 million people, shouldn't we just demand that they give us oil? There should be tankers after tankers backed up like a traffic jam getting into the Lincoln Tunnel, the stinkin' Lincoln, at rush-hour with thank-you notes from the Iraqi government ... Why don't we just take the oil? We've invested it liberating a country. I can have the problem solved of gas prices coming down in 10 days, not 10 years."
There were a couple of problems with Doyle's plan, of course. The first was that he was describing the biggest stick-up in world history. The second that he was too late. "We" are already heisting Iraq's oil, or at least are on the brink of doing so.
It started with no-bid service contracts announced for Exxon Mobil, Chevron, Shell, BP and Total (they have yet to be signed but are still on course). Paying multinationals for their technical expertise is not unusual in itself. What is odd is that such contracts almost invariably go to oil service companies - not to the oil majors, whose work is exploring, producing and owning carbon wealth. The contracts only make sense in the context of reports that the oil majors have insisted on the right of first refusal on subsequent contracts handed out to manage and produce Iraq's oilfields. In other words, other companies will be free to bid on those future contracts, but these companies will win.
One week after the no-bid service deals were announced, the world caught its first glimpse of the real prize. After years of backroom arm-twisting, Iraq is officially flinging open six of its major oilfields, accounting for half of its known reserves, to foreign investors. According to Iraq's oil minister, the long-term contracts will be signed within a year. While ostensibly under the control of the Iraq National Oil Company, foreign corporations will keep 75% of the value of the contracts, leaving just 25% for their Iraqi partners.
That kind of ratio is unheard of in oil-rich Arab and Persian states, where achieving majority national control over oil was the defining victory of anti-colonial struggles. According to Greg Muttitt, a London-based oil expert, the assumption up until now was that foreign multinationals would be brought in to develop new fields in Iraq - not to take over those which are already in production and therefore require minimal technical support. "The policy was always to allocate these fields to the Iraq National Oil Company," he told me. "This is a total reversal of that policy, giving the Iraq National Oil Company a mere 25% instead of the planned 100%."
So what makes such lousy deals possible in Iraq, which has already suffered so much? Paradoxically, it is Iraq's suffering - its never-ending crisis - that is the rationale for an arrangement that threatens to drain Iraq's treasury of its main revenue source. The logic goes like this: Iraq's oil industry needs foreign expertise because years of punishing sanctions starved it of new technology, while the invasion and continuing violence degraded it further. And Iraq needs to start producing more oil urgently. Why? Also because of the war. The country is shattered and the billions handed out in no-bid contracts to western firms have failed to rebuild it.
And that's where the new contracts come in: they will raise more money, but Iraq has become such a treacherous place that the oil majors must be induced to take the risk of investing. Thus the invasion of Iraq neatly creates the argument for its subsequent pillage.
Several of the architects of the Iraq war no longer even bother to deny that oil was a major motivator for the invasion. On US National Public Radio's To the Point, Fadhil Chalabi, one of the primary Iraqi advisers to the Bush administration in the lead-up to the invasion, recently described the war as "a strategic move on the part of the United States of America and the UK to have a military presence in the Gulf in order to secure [oil] supplies in the future". Chalabi, who served as Iraq's oil undersecretary of state and met with the oil majors before the invasion, described this as "a primary objective".
Invading countries to seize their natural resources is illegal under the Geneva conventions. That means the huge task of rebuilding Iraq's infrastructure - including its oil infrastructure - is the financial responsibility of Iraq's invaders. They should be forced to pay reparations, just as Saddam Hussein's regime paid $9bn to Kuwait in reparations for its 1990 invasion. Instead, Iraq is being forced to sell 75% of its national patrimony to pay the bills for its own illegal invasion and occupation.

Fairy Tale Companion: 'Rumpelstiltskin'
When a poor miller boasts that his daughter can spin straw into gold, the king places her into a chamber full of straw to prove this claim under threat of death. An ugly little man appears and performs this impossible task for her in exchange for her ring and, on the second night, her necklace. On the third night, the king puts her into the largest chamber yet and promises to marry her if she succeeds. With nothing left to trade, she is forced to promise the dwarf her first child. When he comes to claim it, he is moved by her tears to let her keep the baby if she can find out his name in three days' time. Failing to answer correctly on the first two nights, the young queen is told by her messenger at the last moment how he had overheard a strange little man calling himself ‘Rumpelstiltskin’ as he was dancing round a fire in the woods. When the queen confronts ‘Rumpelstiltskin’ with the correct name, he tears himself apart in his fury.
The best‐known version of this tale, ‘Rumpelstilzchen’, was published by the Brothers Grimm in their collection Kinder‐ und Hausmärchen (Children's and Household Tales, 1812), but there are many other variants, mainly European, such as the English ‘Tom‐Tit‐Tot’, the Italian ‘Zorobubù’, or the Swedish ‘Titteli Ture’; the name‐guessing motif also links it to Puccini's opera Turandot. The Grimms' story is an amalgamation of three sources, one of which is similar to the influential ‘Ricdin‐Ricdon’ (Bigarrures ingénieuses, 1696) by Marie‐Jeanne Lhéritier, in which it is the king or prince who discloses the name. The Grimms' printed version differs from oral variants in which the girl's predicament lies in her inability to spin anything but gold. She acts on her own behalf when she willingly accepts the little man's help to perform her work and, as spinning was a marriage test in rural communities, gain a husband. Emma Donoghue in her revision, ‘The Tale of the Spinster’ (Kissing the Witch, 1997), takes up the theme of spinning as productive work and translates her version into an entirely female context; however, it is also a critique of materialistic self‐interest and entrepreneurial exploitation. A widow's daughter continues her mother's successful spinning business after her death, but needs to take on a slow‐witted girl, Little Sister, to carry out the fine spinning. When the widow's daughter becomes pregnant in the course of soliciting more work, Little Sister agrees to pretend to be the mother to protect the business. But she finally leaves when the baby is punished for damaging the wool, taking the child with her, since the widow's daughter had shown so little interest in either of them that she had not even asked their names. Anne Sexton interprets her ‘Rumpelstiltskin’ (Transformations, 1972) as a figure of interiorized infantile rage and despair, while William Hathaway's ‘Rumpelstiltskin’ (Disenchantments, 1985) is an angry meditation on contemporary pressures on men to be good at sports and physically beautiful to win the girl.

"..this would mean Australian tax payers dollars would one again have to be wasted.."
That you are originally sucking this money from the country your ancestors have invaded, and the island of my ancestors! So the money is ours in the first place and you are blessed to be allowed to suck the wealth of these lands!
"Is bad enough..."
"while in route .."
You are absolutely hillarious with your lousy English, you.....American.
Unable to make a single post with proper English, and on top of that dare speak of mental diorders while you believe that God has A..SON AAAAAHAHAHAHAHHAAAAA
Just throw him over board, while in route to Australia. Just feed him to the sharks.
That will save the tax payers some money.

I don't see anybody coming forward that would want to waste their time on such a procedure on the likes of him, let alone the greenies and animal activists out there that would be in such an outrage that someone would waste the brain of a crab on him any way I'm off home for now
this topic has turned from a civil conversation into an official disaster...
case closed lol
He does not need treatment for his urinary tract!
What he needs is Neurosurgery...
Better yet, a brain transplant.
Maybe the brains of land crab, will suit him better.

more than likely look after him till he could be shipped to the mainland again though this would mean Australian tax payers dollars would one again have to be wasted
Is that all you got Rumpelstiltskin? To distort my words so they sound like I'm saying something else? Pretty Pathetic! Although I guess one shouldn't expect much from someone with your intelligence

you already confessed about your "experience" and the microscopes which you use usually.
So what do you do n your spare time then?

"..there were no original inhabitants on the island before"My Folks" settled "
Who told you that (I hope not the Wikipedia people who failed to meet my grandfather while he was fishing)
as for your "..bird species...about that size.." well I can show you my bird and you can judge for yourself if it is an eagle or not :-)
"...be revering the birds..."
IT'S YOUR STUPID ENGLISH AGAIN, YOU ....AMERICANNNNNNN HAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAA
He obliviously evolved from one of the bird species as his brain is about that size
There were no such hate/racist feelings in my island before your folks started arriving! Everybody was living in peace & harmony!
LMAO
He must be revering the birds, rats and crabs as part of his hooky.
As Ben Franklin said:
In wine there is wisdom, in beer there is freedom, in water there is bacteria.
if it were a case of every one living in peace on the Island before my "Folks came along then you must have evolved from one of the many wildlife species as there were no original inhabitants on the island before"My Folks" settled there if you are the process of the evolutionary cycle from life before "My Folks" arrived then it is easy to see how they could take it over with out any problems
As for my comment about your grandfather if you could actually read properly you would be able to tell empathy from racism the comment was to highlight just how little you know about were you claim to come from and what your grandfather possibly was forced to do due to stupidity (on his part mind you)
"it had nothing to do with what "god" he prays to"
this was your racist remark: "Tell me did your grandfather enjoy being forced to pray to a Shinto shrine day in day out?"
There were no such hate/racist feelings in my island before your folks started arriving! Everybody was living in peace & harmony!
The sad but true fact here is you know less about your "Own Island" and even less about everything else My advise to you is get a clue
You were the one that bought him into this not me I just merely asked a question in relation to what happened during the war it had nothing to do with what "god" he prays to it is a fact that considering what you are saying than chances are if your grandfather was on the island at that time then he would have more than likely made up part of the Indian militia on the island was more than likely Muslim and was there fore forced by the Japanese to pray to the Shinto gods instead of his own, also on that the chances were if he didn't pray at the shrine then he would have more than likely been killed
if he prays to a different God than yours! (these are the kind of hate/racism problems that we started having in the island after the Europeans started arriving to my island)
Again read get your facts straight the Europeans were the first ones to settle the island in 1888, prior to this they were uninhabited and your comment about your grandfather would mean that he was one of the stupid idiots that believed the Japanese when they told the Indians on the island that they not the rest of the world were going to win the war Tell me did your grandfather enjoy being forced to pray to a Shinto shrine day in day out?
"Red Pope ...Thank you for posting that I have on another thread.."
"..Christmas Island...as it was uninhabited until the late nineteenth century.."
When the Wikipedia people came on that day in the 19th century, my grandfather was in a boat with his family doing some fishing & grilling. He saw them but they didn't see him!
Ahhhh..those good old days before the Europeans started arriving!
Thank you for posting that I have on another thread given Rumpelstiltskin the link to the very facts you have just posted but I fear he will never face the reality unless someone actually post them for him and quiet frankly I didn't want to waste my time
Rumpelstiltskin said:
"....You are from the west.." hahhahahahahahaaaa
You seem to forget that you came from the west to invade my island and that you should thank God because I let you stay :-)
I got this information from Wikipedia:
For centuries, Christmas Island's isolation and rugged coasts provided natural barriers to settlement.
Japan invaded and occupied the island in 1942, as the Indian garrison mutinied, and interned the residents until the end of World War II in 1945.
Christmas Island is of immense scientific value as it was uninhabited until the late nineteenth century, so many unique species of fauna and flora exist which have evolved independently of human interference.
Zenon it gets even better:
From the late 1980s and early 1990s Christmas Island periodically received boatloads of refugees, mostly from Indonesia. During 2001, Christmas Island received a large number of asylum seekers travelling by boat, most of them from the Middle East and intending to apply for asylum in Australia.
The arrival of the Norwegian cargo vessel MV Tampa, which had rescued people from the sinking Indonesian fishing-boat Palapa in international waters nearby, precipitated a diplomatic stand-off between Australia, Norway, and Indonesia. The vessel held 420 asylum seekers from Afghanistan, 13 from Sri Lanka, and five from Indonesia.
In response to requests from the captain of the ship for Canberra to waive the Laws of the Sea and the Refugee Convention 1951, and have the refugees disembarked at Christmas Island, the Australian SAS boarded and took effective control.
The stand-off eventually led to the asylum seekers being redirected to Nauru for processing.
Another boatload of asylum seekers was taken from Christmas Island to Papua New Guinea for processing, after it was claimed that many of the adult asylum seekers threw their children into the water, apparently in protest at being turned away.
This was later proven to be false. Many of the refugees were subsequently accepted by New Zealand.

Final Statement to you:
I believe you are the one, who needs a mental "spell check," especially with your nasty attitude and comments.
I rather have a couple of grammatical errors, instead of having a voice full of hate, like yours, always attacking the west, specially the USA and Israel.
Please, Could you tell me, how many miss-spell words did you missed in your writings?
You miss out 11 words in total and specially you miss-spelled the word "muslim," you need to capitalize the letter "M", just like the word "american", The "A" is capitalized too.
I forgot to tell you additionally, the numerous times you plagiarized other peoples comments. You need to start given credit to the authors.
Shame on you....
On your own words:
For every action, there is a reaction
As Ben Franklin said:
In wine there is wisdom, in beer there is freedom, in water there is bacteria.
"....You are from the west.." hahhahahahahahaaaa
You seem to forget that you came from the west to invade my island and that you should thank God because I let you stay :-)
I also think that Australia is one of the most beautiful spots on Earth, has a wise government, the people are friendly (but not like the NZ's), and I have love & respect to this country, so don't try to dirty its reputation by things like:
"staunch ally of the US"
You are from the west, you are western lol, you are an Australian Citizen LOL - Guys he is Australian lol. So pathetic. Australia is a staunch ally of the US. Mate - if you don't want your passport, as I have said, tear it up and go live somewhere else.
"..always attacking the west, specially the USA and Israel.."
You seem to forget that this is an honor that every human should enjoy!
Please guys,what is the point of all this? If you don't like someone's comment or consider it wrong, then you shouldn't give that person all the attention and write page long answers to him. More appropriate is to ignore his comments and pursue your own logical argument structure. It saves time and effort and space on the pages. And I consider threats on an anonymous forum pointless cause 1) to threaten someone from behind an anonymous identity sounds like cowardice, and 2) you don't really know who you're threatening, and 3) it is very easy to uncover your true identity and get in trouble in the real world. So why all the fuss? If your arguments are more convincing, others in the debate will tend to accept and respect you, basta.
"the word "muslim," you need to capitalize the letter "M", just like the word "american", The "A" is capitalized too."
Now they have to give you a british passport also!
But it's a wonder that an "american" (like you?) is so ignorant in English! So from which hole did you actually enter the States?
As for my "hate posts" which you claim, well all I can tell you is: for every action, there's a reaction!
And Oh!.....Bwaaaahahahahahaaaaaaa:
"...how many miss-spell words did you missed in your writings?
You need to start given credit.."

Remember Red Storm Rising? That was one of my favorite Tom Clancy books. Not too far from reality, as a scenario. But the russians also started the rush in the eighties by trying to get their pipelines accross Afghanistan to the Indian ocean. The failed campaign was too much of a burden on the USSR and contributed greatly to its downfall. So as a freedom fighter OBL deserves SOME credit in ridding the world of the communist eastblock. But not for the rest. ^The US is going down the same path. I believe that even before the oil runs out the US economy will collapse under the burden of the war bill. Then as mayhem threatens to spread accross the globe, our masonic buddies will present their final solution.
A bit too wild I think.. I cant see the need for Nukes.
The UN is the lackey of the Unied States. There is a long way to go bfore the oil runs out and who is to say that the Big Dog wont go and get it before then.
Empires rise and wane. Its art of life. However, I think that the Big Dog has a lot of life left in him yet..
When the lights do go out, and the juice to run the war machines dries up, the US will be on a level footing militarily with those resistance groups now preparing for that time to come. It will all boil down to infantry tactics and courage...etc. The US will have no other choice but to play their last card... Duke Nukem'. That's where the UN will step in and offer the only other "SOLUTION", which is that all states surrender their nukes and political power to the UN and accept the leadership of none other than the much anticipated (by our masonic lodge buddies) high priest of the Orient, Mr. Antichrist himself. The absolute world dictatorship will come into effect and anyone wanting to remain within the urban hubs will be under electronic surveillance alredy partially in effect today. Mr. A will first claim to be a world saviour, then a prophet and finally... GOD himself. And there will be no escape other than to abandon all technological gadgets and flee to the mountains, or to accept his reign and receive his stamp of approval by getting microchipped. WILD.. ain't it?
You hit the nail on the head drac. But there's bad news too for the oilly invaders. I hope you are all familiar with the term "Peak Oil" from the Hubbert peak theory. For those who aren't, it's basically the peak of production after which an oil well starts costing more than it's pumping out. Now guess what, all the nations inthe world have peaked except for Kuwait which is expected to peak in another 8 years or so. The US peaked ages ago in the 80's. All recent exploration and discoveries, including Qatar's huge gas reserves, cannot change the fact that oil will no longer be available in around 20 years! Now the hitching up of the oil price tends to make more sense. They are trying to extend the economic life of oil wells that have already peaked. And the Iraq invasion is the start of the scramble for the control of the last energy reserves on the planet. But their plotting will be their own undoing, cause as the article said, the instability and turmoil in Iraq is giving the multinationals the position to demand such a high share and profit in the oil. That same instability is the breeding ground for highly sophisticated resistance movements which will be ready to strike back at the empire when the lights go out.
A I think you know, I am no fan of the Israeli attitude and government and have felt that way for a long time.
UN "requests" totally ignored etc and certainly following the Sabrah and Shatilla massacres.
I must be one of George W's (and US policies) biggest critics. In addition I am doubtful about the true story of 9/11 and in particular the recently published report on WTC building 7.
I still think it was about oil.
I read in The Gulf Times today that Iraqi "president" Jalal Talabani shook hands with Israeli PM, during a conference in Greece!!!! Just Imagine!!!
Iraq with all its people, presidents, history, civilization, 2 great rivers...etc, was a fortress against Zionist terrorism...Iraq where the BIGGEST source of aid & support (money, arms, publicity) to the Palestinean resistance was at...Iraq where life use to stop and people set angrily to the street when a dirty Zionist dares shoots at a Palestinean....Iraq now has no voice which we can hear with all the tragedies that are occuring in occupied Palestine...Iraq now has a (non-Arabic) "president" who shakes hands with a Zionist...how much lower can the image of Iraq get???
And you tell me "it's always about oil"?
Ollie North and Iran contra ???
Draculla your para 2 is bang on target...
Al-Queida doesnt have any system of taxes but manages to fund, feed, house, train, arm its trainees?
How does it manages the fund....that too in hard cash. (as all these could not be done by credit).
Where is the money comming from? Drugs ...so who is dealing in Drugs:CIA?

Proof is Afghanisthan where Opium cultivation has increased from 180 tons (during Taliban) to 6000 tons (present).
Wrong Answer, Dwel!
Its not possession of Chemical weapons which was projected to the world as reason for invation. THis was the motive.. and no one to question the great US.
UN is just another spokesman of US.
..
Whatever the reasons, as the old saying goes, "To the victor, the spoils"
This should also answer those who keep asking "why the Arabs don't use OIL as a tool to further their agenda. The fact is that the Big Dog and the Wolves will not allow it..
Oil is our lifeline and we will ensure that we have enough supply of it..
"The understanding of some conspiracy theorists is that the New World Order will be created by a military coup, using UN and possibly American troops, against all the nations of the world to bring about a singular world government."

The NWO Modus Operandi
The NWO global conspirators manifest their agenda through the skilful manipulation of human emotions, especially fear. In the past centuries, they have repeatedly utilized a contrivance that NWO researcher and author David Icke has characterized in his latest book, The Biggest Secret, as Problem, Reaction, and Solution.
.
The technique is as follows: NWO strategists create the Problem - by funding , assembling, and training an "opposition" group to stimulate turmoil in an established political power (sovereign country, region, continent, etc.) that they wish to impinge upon and thus create opposing factions in a conflict that the NWO themselves maneuvered into existence. In recent decades, so called opposition groups are usually identified in the media as 'freedom fighters' or 'liberators'.
.
At the same time, the leader of the established political power where the conflict is being orchestrated is demonized and, on cue, referred to as 'another Hitler' (take your pick: Saddam Hussein, Milosevic, Kadaffi, etc.). The 'freedom fighters' are not infrequently assembled from a local criminal element (i.e. KLA, drug traffickers). In the spirit of true Machiavellian deceit, the same NWO strategists are equally involved in covertly arming and advising the leader of the established power as well (the NWO always profits from any armed conflict by loaning money, arming, and supplying all parties involved in a war).
.
The conflict is drawn to the world stage by the controlled media outlets with a barrage of photos and video tape reports of horrific and bloody atrocities suffered by innocent civilians. The cry goes up "Something has to be done!" And that is the desired Reaction.
.
The NWO puppeteers then provide the Solution by sending in UN 'Peace Keepers' (Bosnia) or a UN 'Coalition Force' (Gulf War) or NATO Bombers and then ground troops (Kosovo), or the military to 'search for Weapons of Mass Destruction', which of course are never found. Once installed, the 'peace keepers' never leave. The idea is to have NWO controlled ground troops in all major countries or strategic areas where significant resistance to the New World Order takeover is likely to be encountered.

It was always about oil.
the 1st, and most important reason for invading Iraq is the security of the Zionist regime in occupied Palestine.
(plus of course the amount of "weapons of mass destruction" which they found in Iraq)
If we have an "illegal invasion and occupation" in Iraq, then why wouldn't the UN/SC take action? "No action" means there is no justice, and total chaos. "Total chaos" means "everyone on their own" which means revolutionary retaliation by men like Osama Bin Laden & other freedom fighters!
