25 in the E.U. !

Not only is Japan's economy at
grave risk from a spike in oil prices, but additional risks relate to Iran
and Venezuela as well Norway and many others

The Bush junta will undertake the necessary steps to rapidlyincrease production of Iraq oil, quintupling Iraq's current output - and well beyond OPEC's 2 million barrel per day quota

First would be the collapse of OPEC,

One of the dirty little secrets of today's international order is
that the rest of the globe could topple the United States from its hegemonic
status whenever they so choose with a concerted abandonment of the dollar
standard. This is America's preeminent, inescapable Achilles Heel for now
and the foreseeable future.

That however is a long-term outcome that will require Iraq to be
successfully reconstituted into a functioning state in which massive oil
sector investment can take place."

This is America's preeminent, inescapable Achilles Heel for now

The American people are not aware of such information due to the
U.S. mass media, which has been reduced to a handful of
consumption/entertainment and profit-oriented conglomerates that filter the

source of unfiltered "real news

You cannot compare "Rome" to the US its like comparing white to black other then power. You people have no facts... Only opinions.

Well you are replying from the U.S. and compete and be like are to very different things mate.

But lets not get too political here,ok?!

Ok... First of all, BBtheory, you are asserting many things...without proving much. You're doing exactly what you are blaming the others for. Offensive or insulting posts have never been able to replace good arguments.
