-Caveat Lector-
why don't you smoke a joint already
Which is apropos of what?
Instaed of being a smart ass ( except for the smart part ) why don't you just admit
that you are shallow, ignorant and incapable of logical thought. THAT would be
much more accurate than your stance on oil and power.
It's obvious that you are incapable of thoughts deeper than the reach of your pecker.
Leave it alone for a while and pay attention.
1) All nations seek power. The stronger a country is militarily, the more power it wants
because it uses its power to steal other, weaker countiess' resources. In Central Asia it's oil.
In Afghanistan it's a land bridge for a pipeline to move that oil.
Now pay attention here sonny. IT'S ALL ABOUT OIL. We use power to control other
people's resources because the Corporate /Military establishment makes money from it.
MONEY = POWER more than OIL = POWER. OIL = MONEY = POWER. The
power derived from oil is INDIRECT POWER. It is indirect because modern economies are
fueled by oil and gas. The elites who control the _ price and production_ of oil and gas, have
POWER over that economy if they choose to play that card.
Access to Caspian oil, aside from being profitable for the oil corporations, reduces the
need to be dependent on the Arabs who hate the West.
This is why we are going to war with Iraq. To take the option away from the Saudis and
OPEC.
if oil didn't lead to power no one would seek it so strongly
GENIUS!
that means, by definition, it is the POWER STUPID
No you moron. You still don't get it. Oil has its own intrinsic value. The power derived
from controlling oil is OPTIONAL. The value of the oil is independent of the ability to
use it as means to power.
I'll bet your one of those idiots who think the statement " Knowledge is power." has
some real meaning. It doesn't because it's not true. There is a connection between
knowledge and power, but having knowledge doesn't mean you have power, and having
power doesn't mean you have knowledge. That is obvious if you take our fearless leader
as an example.
If you want to learn about " power " see if you can find Nurev's " Understanding The
New World Order" by Joshua2. It's probably in CTRL's archives.
