Hi people,
A friend of mine sent this link to me. It's very controversial, but I
thought I should mention it here. I don't say I agree or disagree with
it, I merely give the abstract (sorry for the errors in the text: it's
how I received it) and the link:
"The Real but Unspoken Reasons for the Upcoming Iraq War (english)
Sunday 26 Jan 2003
author: W. Clark (wrc92@aol.com)
summary
Although completely suppressed in the U.S. media, the answer to the Iraq
enigma is simple yet shocking - it an an oil CURRENCY war. The Real
Reason for this upcoming war is this administration’s goal of
preventing further OPEC momentum towards the euro as an oil transaction
currency standard. However, in order to pre-empt OPEC, they need to gain
geo-strategic control of Iraq along with its 2nd largest proven oil
reserves. This lengthy essay will discuss the macroeconomics of the
“petro-dollar” and the unpublicized but real threat to U.S. economic
hegemony from the euro as an alternative oil transaction currency."
