[cia-drugs] Bush Setting up Attack on Iran
Breaking: Someone with a lick of sense at the WSJ! By Marc Parent Mind you they had to import him.Talk to Tehran By SAMUEL R. BERGER Mr. Berger, President Clinton's national security advisor from 1997 to 2001. Wall Street JournalMay 8, 2006The Bush administration is quick to acknowledge that military confrontation is neither its only option, nor its first one. But its ideological inflexibility may be the surest way of getting us there and getting us there in the worst possible posture: without strong international support and facing a united Iranian population. The president has stated that all options are on the table and that is as it should be. But all options include the diplomatic one. The least we ought to do is to try it robustly.

Re: [cia-drugs] America's Geopolitical Nightmare and Eurasian Strategic Energy Arrangements
What do John J. Mearshimer, Henry Kissinger, Brent Scowcroft, and Bryzinski have in common? They're all members of the CFR. I did a search to see if Stephen M. Walt is a member too, but only came up with an article that he wrote for the CFR's journal Foreign Affairs. This, in and of itself, doesn't mean that he's a member, but it's enough that Mearshimer is. He controls both academics. Since we know that the CFR is the equivalent of The Illuminati in Munich, we know that they are alike; they both want the NWO. Bush, with his PNAC scheme, deviates a tiny bit (Iran and the Internet) from the NWO. This is why so much emphasis has been put on Mearshimer and Walt's article because it makes Bush look bad. Of course, Bush is bad, but the candidate that the CFR and The Illuminati would support in the next election would be no better. Indeed, both candidates in the 2008 election will betray the decent people of the entire world.

William Engdahl May 7, 2006 GlobalResearch.ca Part I: The disintegration of the Bush Presidency By drawing attention to Iraq and the obvious role oil plays in US policy today, the Bush-Cheney administration has done just that: They have drawn the world's energy-deficit powers' attention firmly to the strategic battle over energy and especially oil. This is already having consequences for the global economy in terms of $75 a barrel crude oil price levels. Now it is taking on the dimension of what one former US Defense Secretary rightly calls a 'geopolitical nightmare' for the United States. The creation by Bush-Cheney-Rumsfeld and company of a geopolitical nightmare, is also the backdrop to comprehend the dramatic political shift within the US establishment in the past six months, away from the Bush Presidency. Simply put: Bush/Cheney and their band of neo-conservative warhawks, with their special relationship to the capacities of Israel in Iraq and across the Mideast, were given a chance. The chance was to deliver on the US strategic goal of control of petroleum resources globally, in order to ensure the US role as first among equals over the next decade and beyond. Not only have they failed to 'deliver' that goal of US strategic dominance. They have also threatened the very basis of continued US hegemony or as the Rumsfeld Pentagon likes to term it, 'Full Spectrum Dominance.' The move by Bolivian President Evo Morales, following meetings with Velezuela's Hugo Chavez and Fidel Castro, to assert national control over oil and gas resources is only the latest demonstration of the decline in US power projection. Future of the Bush Doctrine in the balance As the reality of US foreign policy is obscured by the endless rhetoric of 'defending democracy' and the like, it is useful to recall that US foreign policy since the collapse of the Soviet Union has been open and explicit. It is to prevent at any cost the congealing of a potential combination of nations that might challenge US dominance. This is the US policy as elaborated in Bush's June 2002 West Point speech. There the President outlined a radical departure in explicit US foreign policy in two vital areas: A policy of preventive war, should the US be threatened by terrorists or by rogue states engaged in the production of weapons of mass destruction. Second, the right of self-defense authorized the USA to launch pre-emptive attacks against potential aggressors, cutting them off before they are able to launch strikes against the US. The new US doctrine, the Bush Doctrine, also proclaimed, 'the duty of the US to pursue unilateral military action when acceptable multilateral solutions cannot be found.' It went further and declared it US policy that the 'United States has, and intends to keep, military strengths beyond challenge.' The US would take whatever actions necessary to continue its status as the world's sole military superpower. This resembled British Empire policy before World War I, namely, that the Royal Navy must be larger than the world's next two largest navies put together. The policy also included pro-active regime change around the world under the slogan of 'extending
Re: [cia-drugs] Afghan central bank supplies dollars to keep Afghani strong
Hmmm. In the past three days, the dollar has slipped against the Euro, Danish kroner, Swedish kroner, and Norwegian kroner. My understanding, however, was that in the recent past, the dollar got 43 Indian rupees, while today it got nearly 45 Indian rupees. I haven't compared the dollar with Afghani currency, but if people want, I will.

[cia-drugs] Saudi M3 money supply up
http://www.tradearabia.com/tanews/newsdetails_snECO_article104722_cnt.html Saudi M3 money supply up Posted: Monday, May 08, 2006 Riyadh Broad money supply in Saudi Arabia posted its sharpest rise in a year in March while the central bank's foreign assets grew at their fastest pace since the end of November. Saudi Arabian Monetary Agency (Sama) data showed M3 money supply surging 4 per cent in March to SR582.6 billion ($155.4 billion), its sharpest rise in a year. Money supply growth spiked last year but slowed considerably in January before gathering steam again. M3 rose 1.9 per cent in February, after inching up 0.64 per cent in January and 1.1 per cent in December. Year-on-year M3 rose 15 per cent in March, against a 14.4 per cent rise in February. According to Sama's figures, the rise came mainly from time and savings deposits which analysts said could be linked to a stock market crash that has slashed the capitalisation of the largest Arab bourse by almost half since late-February. 'There was a big rise in money supply in March but it was not due to any increase in bank lending... Some of this rise may have stemmed from the decline in the stock market as investors sold shares and the proceeds were put in their accounts,' said Zahid Khan, chief economist of Riyadh Bank. Sama data put foreign assets at SR648.53 billion ($172.9 billion), up 7.7 percent from February when they rose 2.8 percent from January. The March rise in foreign assets was their strongest since November 2005. Sama's deposits with banks abroad reached SR117.1 billion, up 23.3 per cent from February and 140 per cent from March 2005. Foreign currencies convertible to gold reached SR83.6 billion in March, down about 2 per cent from February. Sama's investment in foreign securities rose 6.3 per cent to 459.1 billion riyals, continuing a trend that started in July, 2005. High prices for Saudi Arabia's crude exports have pumped cash into state coffers for the last three years, allowing the government to boost foreign assets and cut domestic debt. Foreign assets in March were 81 per cent higher than the level in March 2005. Growth in bank claims on the private sector -- an indicator of business and investor confidence -- slowed considerably in March, increasing 0.28 per cent to SR447.46 billion, compared to a 1.4 per cent rise in February.Reuters Complete archives at http://www.sitbot.net/ Please let us stay on topic and be civil.

[cia-drugs] Global Energy Security - An Elusive Target (Part 1/2)
http://www.mees.com/postedarticles/oped/v49n19-5OD01.htm Middle East Economic Survey VOL. XLIX No 19 8-May-2006 REGIONAL/SUPPLY/DEMAND Global Energy Security An Elusive Target (Part 1/2) By Manouchehr Takin, The following article by Dr Takin, of the Centre for Global Energy Studies in London ([EMAIL PROTECTED]), is a version of one presented to The International Conference on Energy Security: Asian Vision organized by the Institute for Political and International Studies and the Institute for International Energy Studies in Tehran on 12 March 2006. The views expressed are the authors and not those of CGES. Part 2 will be published next week. Politicians around the world have long used oil security as a critical national/international factor to initiate controversial public policies. In the last few years and particularly in recent months, energy supply security has made headlines. The more recent include the reduction of gas deliveries from Russia to Ukraine and Europe, a 75% reduction target for US oil imports from the Middle East and the tension among some European countries and with the EU Commission on the extent of deregulation, market liberalization and takeover and mergers between utility companies. In this article, it is argued that security of energy supply cannot be realized by one-sided public policies or political rhetoric without considering economic and business realities. More importantly, the policies should be based on global cooperation among suppliers, consumers, businesses and policy makers in an interdependent world. Furthermore, particularly for oil, it should also encompass the security of future demand. The latter, however, is not taken seriously, particularly under the tight oil market environment of the last two or three years. Traditional View Of Oil Supply Security This view is a legacy from the oil concessionaires in the early 20th century, their undue influence in the countries where they operated, acting almost as a state-within-a-state or an arm of the foreign ministry and intelligence services of their home governments, influencing and manipulating the domestic politics and even changing governments in the oil-rich countries. The goals of the concessionaire companies were to secure oil supplies for their home countries and enrich their shareholders. The common view of the time is of a bipolar world with undue political influence exerted by the militarily and economically powerful industrialized oil consumers who supported the oil companies unfair exploitation of the oil resources in the weaker countries of the developing world. The companies controlled both production and price of oil. The oil world was a mix of the political power of the industrialized countries and the cartel power of the oil companies. The countries with oil resources had almost no control on their oil. These views are beyond conjecture and conspiracy theory. They have been analyzed by researchers and analysts benefiting from the unclassified government documents that have since become available. The oil rich countries of the Middle East are classic examples of the traditional view. Reactions To Oil Concessions The conditions under concessions led to political movements for the nationalization of oil industry around the world. Similarly, the establishment of OPEC in 1960 had the political support of the governments of oil producing countries. These movements were for a more equitable share of the oil revenues for the producing countries and for some control on the production and pricing of oil. It is important to note that the ultimate goals for both oil nationalization and establishing OPEC were business practice in a fair commercial environment, security of supply to consumers, oil market stability and a fair return to the investors in oil industry. Politics was not to play any significant role, nor to interfere in the commercial practice of oil business. Indeed, not long after nationalization, the governments and the national oil companies in many of those countries established commercial relationships with the former oil concessionaires. The 1973 Arab Oil Embargo A prominent example of oil, politics and security was the 1973 oil embargo by Arab producers during the Arab/Israeli war. It was a serious military engagement and in response the Arabs resorted to the use of oil. The Arab embargo, however, was limited to four countries and was gradually reduced and finally lifted a few months later. Nevertheless, for more than 30 years the oil producers in general and OPEC in particular have been wrongly criticized for using oil as weapon. In fact, the 1973 Arab oil embargo has been the landmark event used to justify numerous policies by the industrialized countries to increase their own supply security and to reduce their dependence on oil and particularly on the oil from OPEC and the Middle East.

[cia-drugs] SCO to enhance energy, transport co-op with EEC
http://news.xinhuanet.com/english/2006-05/08/content_4523097.htm SCO to enhance energy, transport co-op with EEC BEIJING, May 8 (Xinhua) -- The Shanghai Cooperation Organization and the Eurasian Economic Community will enhance energy and transport cooperation in a bid to facilitate trade and boost regional economy. The SCO, involving China, Russia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan, signed a memorandum of understanding on Monday with the EEC, which includes Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan. The two sides will promote exchange and cooperation in such fields as trade, energy, environmental protection, transport, communication, investment, tourism, education, healthcare, sports,science and technology. "We agreed to give priority to energy cooperation, which is of common concern and important for regional development," said Zhang Deguang, SCO secretary-general. He said the two organizations have made "primary" discussions on this subject and offered some proposals, including cooperation in building hydro-power stations in Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan and upgrading of oil and natural gas pipelines. Details of these proposals were left for experts to discuss, he said. The two organizations will also cooperate in improving a regional transport system to facilitate trade between Asia and Europe. The EEC will launch a pilot project on container transportation among its member countries this year to find out possible problems.
