Buy some gas, bomb a village
Every time you fill your gas tank, you are helping Russia
buy a nuclear missile. Bill Clinton is trying to leave a
legacy, and Al Gore is trying to get elected. The
combination of Bill and Al has raised world oil prices to
finance a new round of the arms race.
In the May 5 article titled "Clinton approves oil-price hikes"
on Clinton energy policy and nation security, Vice
President Al Gore is incorrectly quoted as saying, "I think
the reason is because we more or less asked the
organization of petroleum producing countries to raise oil
prices in helping Russia develop its economy."
According to a transcript of the event, Sen. Bill Bradley
made the statement in answer to a question from Bernard
Shaw. The detailed transcript of answers from both
Bradley and Gore sheds light on Clinton's oil diplomacy
and its deadly results:
SHAW: Now, Sen. Bradley, for you, an Internet question
from CNN.com: We sent our armed forces to the Persian
Gulf in 1991 to return a country to its owners. Now we
see higher gas prices. What will you do to insure this does
not happen again?
BRADLEY: Well I can't quite tell what the question
means. In 1991, we did fight the Persian Gulf War. We did
win. And now gas prices are very high -- the highest
they've been. And I think the reason they're high now is
because we more or less asked OPEC to raise oil prices in
hopes of helping Russia be able to sell its oil on the
international market, make more foreign exchange and be
able to develop its economy. I think that now in California
and across this country, oil prices are skyrocketing and we
need action. Frankly, we needed action about six months
ago. We needed to release the oil from the strategic
petroleum reserve, something I built from 10 million barrels
to 57 -- or 10 days of supply to 57 days of supply. But
more importantly, we need to go to Kuwait and Saudi
Arabia, those countries that we defended in the Gulf War,
and need to tell them to increase their oil production. We
needed to tell them to increase their oil production six
months ago in order to prevent the price increases that--
SHAW: Time.
BRADLEY: -- that we're now experiencing.
GORE: Secretary of Energy Bill Richardson just
completed a tour of the Middle East and we have been in
communication, in this administration, with the OPEC
countries and frankly, Kuwait, which was freed from Iraqi
domination during the Persian Gulf War, has responded
very positively. And if you've been reading the public
signals from Saudi Arabia, they have too. But frankly, we
can get much more done on this the less we talk about it in
public. One thing we haven't done is take the strategic
petroleum reserve off the table. I also worked on that
legislation. I was in the House of Representatives at the
time while Bill was in the Senate in those years. Now, we
also need to get busy and develop alternative fuels. More
energy efficiency. A whole new generation of vehicles
that will rely on technologies like fuel cells to cut way
down on the pollution and have much more efficiency.
Clearly, Gore's oil reply centers on the recent trip by
Energy Secretary Richardson to the Middle East.
According to a Washington Post article, U.S. Energy
Secretary Bill Richardson visited Saudi Arabia in February
1999 when prices were at their lowest. Richardson
reportedly pressed Saudi Oil Minister Ali Naimi on the
"oversupplied market" and expressed concern about
"extreme price volatility."
Former Saudi minister Sheik Ahmed Zaki Yamani told a
Houston oil conference that Richardson had "saved the oil
industry," during that visit, because his "intervention" had
"persuaded" the Saudis to change policy by raising prices.
After Richardson's visit, Petroleum Intelligence Weekly,
an industry newsletter, quoted Saudi officials as wanting "a
WTI (West Texas Intermediate) price of $18 to $20 as
soon as possible." (WTI is the benchmark grade of crude
oil used to gauge market prices.) Hamilton noted that the
Clinton administration, unable to assist Moscow directly
because of the corruption inside Russia, quietly used the oil
diplomacy to supply Russia increased energy profits. The
Russian profits, however, came from Iraq and were sent
to finance the war in Chechnya.
"In a move seen as a reward to Russia for advocating an
end to U.N. sanctions, Iraq issued new export allocations
that heavily favored Russian trading companies. Thus,
Russia profited both from the rise in oil prices and from
expanding Iraqi production," stated Hamilton in the Post
article.
"The run-up in price has had other unanticipated effects. It
made the Chechnya war affordable for Russia. And it is
beginning to cripple the Asian recovery from the market
crash of 1997-98," concluded Hamilton.
The oil, money and war combination is also a direct threat
to American national security. More money for Moscow
does not necessarily equal better relations. Russia, despite
a crippled economy and rampant corruption, has found that
the new oil profits can buy the very expensive SS-27 Topol
missile.
Russian State Duma Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman
Vladimir Lukin told Moskovsky Komsomolets that Russia's
security would not be weakened by lack of money. In an
October 1999 speech carried by Radio Liberty, Lukin said,
"Russia will be able to compete with U.S. space defense
systems or will begin installing multiple warheads on the
Topol (SS-27)." Lukin commented that the Russians would
simply "churn" out more missiles. Lukin stated that such a
build-up would be "expensive, but not that expensive."
The deployment of Russian SS-27 Topol missiles is listed
incorrectly in the article "Clinton plans to reduce nukes by
half" published on May 12. The article states that Russia
has SS-27 missiles in the "Sakarov" area south of
Moscow. Defense sources show that two Topol-M
regiments are deployed around Tatischchevo in the
"Saratov" region, replacing 20 older SS-19 missiles located
at a military site 450 miles southeast of Moscow. The
SS-27 can deliver up to 10 small nuclear warheads against
America, or can be armed with a single massive H-bomb
developed by the Russian Ministry of Atomics or
"MINATOM" Arzamas-16 site. According to Russian
weapons engineers, the new SS-27 warhead has an
explosive force equal to over half a million tons of TNT. In
1995 and 1996, Arzamas-16 illegally obtained U.S.-made
IBM super-computers exported again with Clinton
administration approval. The super-computers were
exported directly to the Russian weapons lab, using false
commercial and non-military contracts. IBM pled guilty to
the illegal export and paid an $8.5 million fine for the illegal
sale.
In October 1999, the New York Times reported the
Clinton administration had forgiven the Russians for the
illegal purchase of the IBM super-computers. Ironically,
the event involved a visit by Energy Secretary Bill
Richardson.
The Times reports: "The 16 computers, now fully licensed
and operational, will be on display as part of the 'open
computing center' that the American energy secretary, Bill
Richardson, is to inaugurate at the lab that developed
Russia's hydrogen bomb. The center is a joint project of
the Energy Department and Minatom, the Russian
Ministry of Atomic Energy, to which Washington
contributed $2.3 million. It is intended to help find jobs
outside the weapons industry for thousands of scientists,
engineers and technicians at this remote, still largely closed
nuclear city and its premier lab." Russia, however, was
able to find paying jobs for its nuclear weapons engineers.
Russia has also sold the SS-27 design to China for hard
cold cash.
In October 1999, China announced a successful
computer-aided test of their version of the SS-27 missile
under the designation "Dong Feng" (East Wind) DF-41.
The DF-41 will most likely be armed with three Chinese
nuclear warheads, designed with the aid of stolen U.S.
nuclear secrets. China reportedly plans to begin flight
testing of the DF-41 starting in 2001. Soon, more nuclear
warheads will be pointed at American cities.
The deadly game of Clinton diplomacy, a combination of
oil, money and nukes, has spread like a slick across the
globe. The U.S. public is financing the corrupt regime in
Russia, a war in Chechnya and nuclear tipped Russian
missiles pointed at America.
