OIL, PETRODOLLARS, AND US REASONS FOR WAGING WAR ON IRAQ
As the United States appears on the brink of war with Iraq, there are still commentators assuring the American public that the motives for attack have nothing to do with oil. The record makes clear the opposite.

THE PEAK OF WORLD OIL PRODUCTION
AND THE ROAD TO THE OLDUVAI GORGE
The Olduvai theory is a data-based schema that states that the life expectancy of Industrial Civilization is less than or equal 100 years. We shall develop the theory from its early roots in Greek philosophy down to respected scientists in the 20th century. This approach is useful because, although the theory is easy to understand, it is difficult (i.e. distressing) for most people to accept — just as it was for me.
Want more proof - Chicago Sun Times October 12, 2002
"In Washington, the daily White House briefing was dominated by questions about Bush's plans for a post-Saddam Iraq after the New York Times reported plans to install an American-led military government that would control Iraq and its valuable oil wells."

The death toll in Iraq could be 50,000 to nearly four million. The oil sum doesn't add up, writes Peter Holding.

Only in the most direct sense is the Bush administration’s Iraq policy directed against Saddam Hussein. In contrast to all the loud talk about terrorism, weapons of mass destruction, and human rights violations, very little is being said about oil. The administration has been tight-lipped about its plans for a post-Saddam Iraq and has repeatedly disavowed any interest in the country’s oil resources. But press reports indicate that U.S. officials are considering a prolonged occupation of Iraq after their war to topple Saddam Hussein. It is likely that a U.S.-controlled Iraq will be the linchpin of a new order in the world oil industry. Indeed, a war against Iraq may well herald a major realignment of the Middle East power balance.

Reasons For The Iraq War

Although completely suppressed in the U.S. media, the answer to the Iraq enigma is simple yet shocking - it an an oil CURRENCY war.
"Hidden Wars" emerges as an uncommonly sober, well researched film of its type." - The New York Times "Hidden Wars of Desert Storm" looks at the origins of the Gulf War crisis and challenges the official Western "party-line" view of a spontaneous crusade for "Freedom & Democracy".
Instead, the documentary exposes the White House and US State Department's hidden agenda in the Gulf as well as the Pentagon's use of radioactive ammunitions made of uranium 238.
(This 1 hour long documentary is being aired on DishNetWork Channel 9410 and is available for the modest price of $20.00 - Was entirely privately funded)
The cost to Taxpayers of occupying Iraq is estimated at $16 billion a year (not counting the cost in lives and dollars to conquer the nation) and then the corporate oil barons can slurp the oil and reap the profits - American and British Taxpayers are indeed the suckers in this deal! - Oilwars comment

"He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned
my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for
him the spinal cord would fully suffice. This disgrace to
civilization should be done away with at once. Heroism at command,
senseless brutality, deplorable love-of-country stance, how violently
I hate all this, how despicable and ignoble war is; I would rather be
torn to shreds than be a part of so base an action! It is my
conviction that killing under the cloak of war is nothing but an act
of murder."
-Albert Einstein
"IF"
If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you;
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or, being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or, being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise;
If you can dream - and not make dreams your master;
If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with triumph and disaster
And treat those two imposters just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to broken,
And stoop and build 'em up with wornout tools;
If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breath a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on";
If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with kings - nor lose the common touch;
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you;
If all men count with you, but none too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run -
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man my son!
by Rudyard Kipling
