Liberty Star, you have a good handle on it..................
If one would suggest, for sake of arguement, that Israel, in essence
controls the US through the Federal Reserve , along with those that set
foreign policy, it seems believeable that any threat to Israel, REGARDLESS
of benefit or detriment to the US, would be dealt with in Israel's favor.
REGARDLESS OF THE BENEFIT OR DETRIMENT to the US.
That's a very bad situation to be in.
Consider that the US is an industrialized nation that depends upon OIL.
Consider that the US dollar is pegged to the price of OIL. (petrodollar)
Consider that Israel depends upon the US "cash machine" (Fed) to
generate the cash flow that not only supports the US military, but by
extension every other industrialized nation that depends on OIL, AND
holds either US currency in reserve, or in DEBT.
Consider that for years past, Iraq was merely an annoying fly in Israel's face,
UNTIL Saddam decide that armed conflict was near futile, and the US/UN
saunctions dictated by US/Israeli foreigh policy were taking their toll.
He attacked Israel by getting "smart" and following the money.
He suddenly became the single largest threat to Israel's existence.
To the US's existence..............the entire industrialized world.
He began, or threatened to begin, selling OIL for EURO.
Suddenly, he was the giant turd in the world's punchbowl.
Israeli response to the greatest threat they've faced in years?
Reach up the puppet's arse and have him removed.
Knowing what was at stake, the US sheepisly grabbed it's ankles.....
Iran threatend the same, as did a few others in the region, calling for
an "Oil Bourse" that could, and would accept a multitude of other currencies.
My guess is all these "Oil Bourse" countries will suddenly develop
"WMD syndrome" and need to be.....er,..."Democrocized" or "Liberated"
.
