To bring you up to speed on what you MUST know.

Its hard not to despair sometimes when you try to keep up to date with the political decisions in the world.
I cannot tell you just how much I detest the fact people are alright with these pricks in power. About as much as i detest the actual people who burn the rights and piss away countries fortunes.
I have had my homepage set as Aljazeera ever since i got sent this computer. They have some pretty sweet articles. Alot of which i post on my facebook.
For the last few weeks i've wanted to talk to someone seriously about the path we are on but no one really wants to hear my rage. So. i figured what is a blog if not a place to have my thoughts put on a public forum.
So here i go.

Do you guys know about the petrodollar?
Its an amazing idea that the US government came up with. I think its gloriously clever if it wasn't so sinister now.
In 1945 the Bretton Woods agreement established the dollar as the world currency. Everything was across the world was priced in dollars. This gave America a distinct financial advantage but the agreement stated that other countries could buy american dollars at a constant 35 dollars per ounce of gold.
1971 saw an end to that.
Now this agreement was based on the belief the american currency would remain very stable in worth. In other words the Americans weren't allowed to print too much money because the cash they had couldn't outstrip the amount of gold the Americans could give out in return.
Well. The Vietnam war taught the world what America thought of it obligations.
It became obvious to other countries that the Americans were printing large amounts of cash and so countries started trading their US dollars in for gold.

The US dollar went down until Nixon made this statement

"I have directed secretary connelly to temporarily suspend the convertability of the dollar into gold or other reserve assets..."
Oh sure it was temporary. but really it was never reversed.
Now America had the world currency but a currency backed by absolutely nothing.
worthless.
I imagine this sounds a bit boring and financey but it gets better.
Later Nixon would go on to talk to the king in Saudi Arabia into only accepting american dollars for his oil in exchange for american military guarding the oil fields in Saudi Arabia.
They said yes and this offer was extended to all key oil producing regions. By 1975 the US dollar was the only thing being traded for oil.
Which meant every country had to buy American dollars. They had an endless supply of cash as they held the every country by the balls.
Eventually some countries detested this notion and wanted to switch to a different currency or create a new one. And i'll just quickly jot down a few:
Iraq, Libya, Syria, Venezuela, Iran, China, Russia.
Anyone seeing a bit of a trend here?
Iraq moved to only buying using the euro in 2000.
Iraq was invaded in 2003

Libya had been moving to create a gold based currency called the dinar. which of course would be used for oil transactions.
The arab spring gave America the perfect oppurtunity.
Iran has made the Iranian OIl bourse in which they sell their oil for gold, euro, pounds, yen, alot of solid currencies.
Venezuala in 2006 announced their support of moving to the euro.
China and Russia. These are the big one kahunas.

So to break it down for it you it goes like this:
"China and Russia are renouncing the U.S. dollar for trade, their premiers have announced."
Two of the biggest countries in the world are renouncing the dollar in the current crisis the Americans are in this is a death blow.
But of course. it gets worse. oh it only gets worse.
China has been engaging in alot of diplomacy lately. Here is a list of other ways in which the world has moved away from the petro-dollar:

Indeed, officials from China, India, Brazil, Russia, and South Africa (the latest addition to the BRIC acronym, now to be called BRICS) recently met in southern China to discuss expanding the use of their own currencies in foreign trade (yet another move away from the US Dollar).
To recap:

• China and Russia have removed the US Dollar from their trade
• China is rushing its trade agreement with Brazil
• China, Russia, Brazil, India, and now South Africa are moving to trade more in their own currencies (not the US Dollar)
• Saudi Arabia is moving to formalize trade with China and Russia
• Singapore is moving to trade yuan

The trend here is obvious. The US Dollar’s reign as the world’s reserve currency is ending. The process will take time to unfold. But the Dollar will be finished as reserve currency within the next five years.

So. America is fucked. Why do we care?

Yes. Always the question on everyones lips.

Why should you care?

You know the federal reserve do you?

Well the federal reserve is the money printing facility of America. They are not, however, owned by the government. They are a private entity and do what ever the hell they want. 

Generally this place is filled with the Wall St types who caused the last economic collapse. 

These bankers own not only the money supply of the US but they own the money supply of the world.

Or atleast they did until the last few years when everyone started to move away from the dollar.

Now its uncertain. infact, its looking pretty terrible for the bankers. they have all their chips invested in this federal reserve, its how they enjoy the power they do.

What we are seeing here is alot of powerful men in a pretty desperate situation.

Desperate men do silly things.

Desperate men with the power over the money supply do evil things

Desperate men who face losing their power, their money supply and have the politicians and therefore the army in their pocket will be willing to do anything to return their stranglehold on power.

America is a ticking time bomb.  

Here are a few things you should watch or even just read the headlines to get the idea

A member of the Washington Institute for Near East Policy a prominent Israeli lobbyist group is seen here telling a press conference that America should use its "typical way of entering warfare" The false flag.

Netanyahu recently held this speech at the UN outlining just how far away Iran is from a nuclear bomb. Now it doesn't matter that it isn't true that Iran is looking for nukes what matters to Israel is that if America is not the biggest power in the world, if it falls, Israel will too. No one is on Israels side. They have been operating an apartheid state for years and there are no countries out there that will jump to Israels aid after all the atrocities they have commited.
That red line shows us how far away this ticking time bomb is. We are oh so close.

War with Iran would bring this world into WW3
Russia and China have said any attack on Iran will prompt them to go to war.
Russia and China have no small amount of military might as we all know but Iran itself has the 8th largest army.
The territorial disputes with Japan would come to surface and we could see an attack of Chinese on Japan. America has military bases in Japan and they would surely come under fire.
That and i don't think there is much lost love between the two countries.
Iran has allies all over the world. specially in south america.
We would be expected to jump in on side of Britain.

This is why we need to care.
We are rolling towards a war of apocolyptic proportions.
How can we sit back and allow people to tell us we should go to war? When did we give them the right to tell us when we are to live or die?
The leaders who propose such dispicable ideas must be thrown out and stomped out until their ideas blow away like dust in the wind.
We live in very turbulent times and we must be ready to stand up and say that we do not need to be governed by the poor decisions of insane men. There is no time to wait.
The time for action is now.
