Oil, the real terror!

The US presidential election seems to be decided on the terrorism issue ravaging the minds of the Americans since the 9/11 strike against the rich Western domination due to imperialism, colonialism, and industrialisation.

The latter is due to vast use of the energy resources (oil, gas, coal) of the globe (result the Greenhouse Effect). Suppose there were no oil in Iraq and Saudi Arabia (and in the other ME countries), would US have risked military operations in Iraq and bothered about Saudi Arabia? No. Why it was so ruthless in poor Afghanistan? Oil outlet from the rich CIS to the seas for shipment. Iraq is the victim for the same reason and, Iran is considered a blockade for the routing, plus both these (Muslim) countries have energy resources. Some equations are not so complex as the Einstein's Theory!

Now the price of oil in the international market has almost tripled and is hovering around USD 60, and the upper level figure in the near future is speculated to be USD 80 (article in the DS Oct 26). That is more troublesome than Saddam or bin Laden? It means the economic collapse of the industrialised rich nations, and the end of white supremacy. The culprit is the Islamic world of Muslim countries with such natural resources (God is partial?). Draw two lanes from the CIS region: one to the Persian Gulf, and the other to the Arabian Sea. Note the US pressurised presence in Pakistan (regardless of the nature of the regime at Islamabad). Containment of South Asia is the name of the other game.

Democracy and Islam are not the main issues. Islam is a carrier of resources, and democracy is a propaganda tool for the rich imperialists or colonialists. Looks like the British empire is coming back in the Yankee version. It is not surprising that the Yankees retain Bush for another term. Hence oil is not only a terror, but also a killer, in the long run.
