Arab oil - destructive power to US economy

Arab oil and US economy


Arab oil and the US economical crisis


Manraaj Singh Editor Profit Hunter: 'Arab Oil Wealth To Dwarf US Economy!' [Apr 29, 2008] [1].


Walid Phares (Oct, 2008): 'OPEC manufactured the financial meltdown' [2].


Notorios businessman Donald Trump Blasted Oil Prices and OPEC July 30th, 2008 “Oil (costs) is what is killing the world’s economy,” Observers say if the U. S. would rattle its own domestic oil supply saber it would shock the market and costs would plummet. Oil experts say the U. S. could be free of Middle East imports in less than 3 years. [3], he blasted major oil producing countries for the current recession and accuses large oil companies of "doing a major number" on everyone. [4], it’s the price of oil that is to blame, OPEC and the Saudi Arabians [5], on Feb. 4, 2009: "As far as the economy is concerned, though, I'm afraid that if and when the economy does get going, you'll have OPEC raise its ugly head and come out and just raise oil prices again and kill it, because I think that OPEC had a lot to do with the failing of the world economy." [6].


US president Barack Obama in his speech on February 24, 2009 said: The fact is, our economy did not fall into decline overnight. Nor did all of our problems begin when the housing market collapsed or the stock market sank. We have known for decades that our survival depends on finding new sources of energy. Yet we import more oil today than ever before. [7].

McCain: Will end dependence on foreign [Islamo Arab] oil - (our $700 billion a year to Muslims that hate us)

necn ^ July 21, 2008

McCain: Will end dependence on foreign oil
(NECN: South Portland, Maine) - Senator John McCain attended a picnic at the Maine Military Museum in South Portland, Maine on Monday.
"Everybody here knows what has happened to a gallon of gas, our lowest income Americans are hurting the most, some of them can't even get to work," said the Republican presidential candidate.
"We are sending $700 billion a year to countries that don't like us very much and some of that money ends up in the hands of terrorist organizations. I will end this dependence on foreign oil," said McCain.

Exclusive: OPEC: A Recurring Nightmare

Exclusive: OPEC: A Recurring Nightmare

Family Security Matters, NJ - Jun 23, 2008

OPEC, acronym for The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries, was founded in Baghdad on September 14th, 1960, ostensibly to bargain and negotiate the sale of oil to the West by Algeria, Indonesia, Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Libya, Nigeria, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, and Venezuela….


They sound just like another commercial fraternal organization, but with the exception of Venezuela and a bizarre on again/off again romance with Ecuador, all member states are Muslim and the bulk of the oil reserves, estimated to be more than three quarters of the entire world’s, are located in the Arab Middle East….


Saudi Arabia and OPEC cohorts don't just hold us over a barrel of oil. They fund and control radicalized Middle East departments in major Universities …

(Arab Muslim dominated) OPEC's policies spurring price hike

(Arab Muslim dominated) OPEC's policies spurring price hike
Dailyrecord.com, NJ - Jul 5, 2008

While it is true that the United States gets most of its oil from non-Arab countries, it is in fact the Arab oil-producing nations that are driving up the price.

He states that the "price of oil is dictated to a large extent by U.S. oil companies." That is not the case.

OPEC, the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries, is a cartel of 12 member nations, with all but one, Venezuela, a Middle Eastern country. A cartel is, according to the American Heritage Dictionary, a combination of independent business organizations formed to regulate production, pricing and marketing of goods by the members. OPEC has for the first time since its creation in 1960 been acting like a real cartel. Formerly, cartel members would ignore regulated production goals established and pump more oil. More oil meant more supply.

The larger supply would keep the price down worldwide. Now we are seeing member nations holding firm to established production goals. In other words, while everyone, including President Bush, is asking them to produce more, they are not. The cartel is working.

The concepts of supply and demand are not sexy, but they certainly apply to the price of gasoline.

We learned in Economics 101 that price balances the supply to the demand. Look at it this way: Local farms are now harvesting their strawberries. One way to get these strawberries sold instead of going rotten is to lower the selling price. The local supermarket will sell many more quarts of strawberries at $2.50 as opposed to $3.99. The farmers might get a lower price, but they are not left with rotten fruit. Everyone wins in this scenario: Consumers get a lower price and farmers sell their harvest.

Would the local supermarket have any strawberries in stock in October if the price remained low when the supply from South America was one quarter what it is now? Go to the head of the class if you say your local supermarket would not have any strawberries in stock if the price was $2.50. They would sell out too quickly for the inventory to be replenished.

OPEC produces almost 36 percent of the world's oil. When any organization or company or country controls over a third of production, it effectively controls price. All one has to do is look at how Medicare/Medicaid price fixing has affected upward the cost of medical care to understand this.

Couple OPEC's regulated supply with the growing demand for oil worldwide and you see something discussed in your Economics 101 class: When demand goes up and supply does not change, the price will go up. It doesn't matter if you are talking strawberries or oil. Since 1999 worldwide demand for oil has grown 13 percent, led by the increased demand from China and India, both of which have almost doubled demand in that period.

So while it is true the Arab oil-producing nations are not the United States' majority supplier of oil, a group of them, OPEC, does produce over a third worldwide, thus significantly affecting the price worldwide. Maintaining cartel supply production goals has driven worldwide prices up. We do not live in a vacuum; there are other countries using oil and other producers, OPEC for example, supplying to the worldwide market.

It is true when Assaf says "(a) solution to skyrocketing gas prices is to for each of us to use less fuel"; I wonder if he means China and India as well?

Supply and demand is not a sexy topic, but these concepts affect life every day and have done so for centuries. Investments in U.S. Treasury bills do not set price; the balance between supply and demand does.

OIL! POWER! What If it wasn't ARAB - MUSLIM BIGOTS who suck us to the bones at the pump

OIL! POWER! What If it wasn't ARAB - MUSLIM BIGOTS who suck us to the bones at the pump

A simple question, What if it was not the Arabs, not the Muslims (OPEC) that control the world's energy?

What if the oil tycoons were of a different background, say Irish Catholic or Jewish?

Could you imagine how they would be lynched [in the media and all tools of public opinion]?

But it's "only" Arabs, Muslims, and they can do whatever they want, limit or extend production of oil.

Worst is of course the immense unlimited power they enjoy in being permitted to continue "business" as usual... in the "field" of crimes against humanity... No one ever dares speaks out against the racist Arab massmurder of the Africans in Darfur, slavery in Mauritania, or how they continuously demonize Jews, or cries out against the mainstream Muslim media that always finds the "victimhood" among 'Palestinian' thugs or Al Qaeda in Iraq or Hezbollah's crimes on Lebanese, all to facilitate in justifying the killing of infidels mainly Christians, Jews, Buddhists, Hindus, etc., Don't think all of the above is not related, it's still about their unlimited "freedom" to oppress everyone else... no one ever dare says, acts against the Islamo Arab GOLIATH.

Now, you tell me who really is in control of 'world affairs'?

Arabs controlling the world KINDA MAKES YOU WONDER [Dem. vs Rep. in dealing with ARAB OIL POWER]

(Arabs controlling the world) KINDA MAKES YOU WONDER [Dem. vs Rep. in dealing with ARAB OIL POWER]



(Arab controlling the world) KINDA MAKES YOU WONDER [Dem. vs Rep. in dealing with ARAB OIL POWER]


KINDA MAKES YOU WONDER…



John H. at Powerline writes:



For several decades, the Democratic Party has pursued policies designed to drive up the cost of petroleum, and therefore gas at the pump. Remarkably, the Democrats don’t seem to have taken much of a political hit from the current spike in gas prices. Probably that’s because most people don’t realize how different the two parties’ energy policies have been.


Congressman Roy Blunt put together these data to highlight the differences between House Republicans and House Democrats on energy policy:


ANWR Exploration

House Republicans: 91% Supported

House Democrats: 86% Opposed


Coal-to-Liquid

House Republicans: 97% Supported

House Democrats: 78% Opposed


Oil Shale Exploration

House Republicans: 90% Supported

House Democrats: 86% Opposed


Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) Exploration

House Republicans: 81% Supported

House Democrats: 83% Opposed


Refinery Increased Capacity

House Republicans: 97% Supported

House Democrats: 96% Opposed


SUMMARY

91% of House Republicans have historically voted to increase the production of American-made oil and gas.


86% of House Democrats have historically voted against increasing the production of American-made oil and gas.


PAUL M. adds: It’s useful to keep this sort of thing in mind when we hear (on something like a daily basis these days) that the Republicans have run out of ideas or that Republican ideas didn’t work. The truth is that most major Republican ideas weren’t tried because the Democrats blocked them. Increasing the domestic production of oil and gas (a move so obvious it barely meets the standard for being an idea) is hardly the only example.


The post elicited this response from commenter “Ronnor”. (I’ve cleaned up the grammar and spelling.)


“After being called a conspiracy theorist I posted this.



‘Who said anything about conspiracies?


I’m talking about taking bribes from the Arabs. Don’t you think thats being done? It’s called the price of doing business. Take a look at the Carter Center financing and then look at how he helps skew the oil market.


Why wouldn’t you think that politicians would take a bribe when every year someone goes to jail for it?

How cheap it would be to buy votes? And you wouldn’t need many, what 50 Senators? Pay a couple of billion dollars in Swiss accounts. Or fund PAC’s, universities and their professors to push the Arab Oil Agenda. Didn’t Saudi Arabia just give a couple of hundreds of millions to Harvard and a few other places? Saw that in the newspapers — just what do you think that is for?


Phony up a few ‘trusts’ where it’s impossible to find out what, where and how much they are really giving.


Want to really screw up oil shale development? Gve 20 attorneys 50 million dollars to start environmental inspections, lawsuits, marches on State Legislatures.


It’s a lot of money on the table — $800 billion to the Arabs this year, a couple of billion to Senators, Congressmen/women, couple of greens to suppress gas and oil exploration, stop nuclear and all the rest of things that they as American citizens can do legally and the investment comes back a hundred fold.


Why wouldn’t the Arab oil producers do something like that? It’s the smart thing to do and it’s what is ingrained in the Arab ethic (they have none).


How laughable that you don’t think bribery works. It does and has for millennia. You must think the Arab stupid and our elected officials completly honest if you don’t think this is happening somewhat right now. Remember, money talks and you know what walks.

Kinda makes you wonder “Is it any wonder?”

The discourse coming out of the Arab and Islamic region is a disgrace," Khalil argued. "In Darfur and south Sudan, severe human rights violations occur — ethnic cleansing, the murder of millions and rape. Yet no one but the West exposes what is happening in south Sudan and Darfur. … It is the West that attacked Serbia. It is the West that established the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia. It is the West that protects the independence of Kosovo."

Hamas, Teddy Bears in Sudan and the Muslim Brotherhood Douglas Farah
30 Nov 2007

There are two places where the Muslim Brotherhood exercises governmental power-Sudan and the Palestinian territories. That is, where it controls the levers of the state. It seems to me it is worth looking at these states to see how the Brotherhood would govern if given the chance, and to see the real agenda of the organization that claims to represent moderate, modernizing and tolerant interpretations of Islam.

For an excellent summary of why the Muslim Brotherhood is such an important topic, see this new paper by [http://www.futureofmuslimworld.com/research/pubID.72/pub_detail.asp#%22] Hillel Fradkin of the Hudson Institute.

EU rights champion urges Europe to act on Darfur
Tue 4 Dec 2007, 17:44 GMT

[-] Text [+] By David Brunnstrom

BRUSSELS, Dec 4 (Reuters) - The winner of the European Union's top human rights prize demanded on Tuesday that the bloc take a more active role in resolving the Darfur crisis, saying it could not simply stand by during "genocide".

Speaking before an EU-Africa summit this weekend, Sudanese lawyer Salih Mahmoud Osman called on the EU to commit troops for a Darfur peace force and help bring rights abusers to justice.

"Europe has always been talking tough about the policies of the government of Sudan, but we don't see acts," he told a news briefing in Brussels. "Europe is confused, it is divided on the issue of Darfur. The EU hasn't any unified political will."

International experts estimate 200,000 people have been killed and 2.5 million uprooted in Darfur since mostly non-Arabs took up arms in early 2003 accusing Khartoum of neglect. Khartoum says 9,000 have died.

,b>FARROW ATTACKS SUDAN'S 'CRUEL' LEADERS 2007-12-04...

Actress MIA FARROW has blasted Sudanese leaders for jailing a British schoolteacher accused of blasphemy, calling their treatment of her a typical act of "palpable insanity and cruelty".
The UNICEF goodwill ambassador hopes the imprisonment of Gillian Gibbons who was incarcerated for allowing her pupils to name a teddy bear Muhammad will highlight the tyrannical control the downtrodden people of Darfur are forced to live under and, in turn, prompt Westerners to help them.
However, Farrow - who was in London on Sunday (02Dec07) to launch new campaign Fund4Darfur - is outraged that Gibbons' plight grabbed the headlines when the bigger issues facing the war-ravaged folk of Darfur are still being ignored by the media.
She said, "One white woman in peril with a teddy bear has captured more media attention than the past three years of our brothers and sisters in the Darfur region.
"This is the first genocide of the 21st century and the one genocide that is ongoing as we speak. We have ,b>a regime that launched a military campaign on an unarmed population for no other reason than that they are not Arab." Fund4Darfur will aid the survivors of the fighting between Sudan's government and Darfur's rebels, who have been at war for four years, resulting in 200,000 casualties and 2.5 million being forced from their homes.

TV Review: HBO - Sand And Sorrow
December 3rd, 2007 by Simon Barrett
Genocide, it’s just a word, it’s a word that you read in history books. But what does it really mean? Well, if you want to get rid of weeds in your lawn you use a herbicide, if ants are invading your house you likely will use a pesticide. You have probably noticed the use of the word ending ‘cide’. There are lots of words that end with ‘cide’ and I can not think of a single one that is good! A little bit of research reveals that ‘cide’ comes from Latin, and in it’s basic form, it means ‘to kill’. Genocide is the systematic removal of a people, and genocide is what is happening in the Sudan right now.

HBO are definitely making a name for themselves in the documentary world, they are willing to take on projects that the other networks turn a blind eye to. Sand And Sorrow takes a very long hard look at the African country of Sudan, more specifically the Darfur region and the genocide that has been taking place.

Without doubt this is one of the worlds poorest regions, with few natural resources, and no strategic geographic location, no-one seems to want to help the people. I may be cynical, but I am sure that if Darfur had oil, the world powers would be breaking their necks to help.

Sand And Sorrow explores what is happening in Darfur, and the findings are not good. This is not about religion, everyone is Muslim, this is about Arab versus Non Arab. The Arab led government in Khartoum is systematically killing the non-arab population of Darfur, moving village by village the militia are killing and raping their way through the region. It is estimated by some that the number of dead exceeds 400,000.

This is must see TV, produced and narrated by George Clooney, this is both a disturbing and frighting look at a situation that we, as decent people should not allow. Sand And Sorrow pulls no punches and the footage that is used is horrific. It not only shows the current status of the Sudan but explores the history and the West’s apparent apathy toward the problem. The US comes out of this in a very poor light, because Khartoum is on board with the ‘War on Terror’ the US is loath to intervene, the other world body that could help is the UN, but they are portrayed as a toothless Bulldog, growling and snarling, but unable to act for fear of veto by China or Russia.

This is indeed a very sad situation.

I am involved on the fringes of the education system here in Canada, and one of the groups I work with is the Immigrant Youth Organization, these are primarily young people who are refugees, many of who are from the Sudan. I had noticed how reticent they were to discuss their previous lives, through Sand And Sorrow I now understand why. They have lived through a nightmare that is unbelievably shocking.

Sand And Sorrow premiers December the 6th at 8pm on HBO. There is an accompanying web site which contains some interesting background, and a short trailer. If you cannot receive HBO or cannot make the airing you will be able to watch it in its entirety online between December 7th and 9th. After Rwanda I was convinced that the world had learned a lesson, but The Sudan is living proof that we have not.

Darfur is atop Don Cheadle's agenda
Dec 2, 2007
...Cheadle knows the Navy origins of that phrase, "not on my watch," the idea being that "if something bad happens while I'm on duty, I'm responsible." He wants to be responsible, and he's willing to do the lobbying and legwork to put pressure on the Arab government of Sudan to stop burning African, non-Muslim Sudanese out of their homes and villages.
