The US threat on Iran

2. comment re above article: What is probably behind the US threat on Iran is a complex of corporate interests with military-industrial and extensively energy profits in mind on the one hand and US Israeli lobbyists on the other hand. And these two groups are not necessarily separate as both groups are therein driven, no doubt, by either coveting Iran's natural energy resources the combined integrity of which (the combination of both oil and gas) are probably second to none or of significantly depreciating the power and significance that that nation has in the region by virtue of changing it's political fabric so as to create another client state or at least one that facilitates western corporate interests. Saudi Arabia and possibly Iraq may have more oil than Iran but Iran is probably superior to both in consideration of the composite whole of energy resources, that is including both natural gas and oil. That as a potential western controlled market commodity may be very highly desirable to the UK, US and possibly to the Netherlands. And of course in the broader sense there is the issue of the international political and ultimate hegemony that Israel, The UK and NATO in general are very interested in for the purposes of ultimately dominating and controlling the entire globe and thereby assuring that western business and markets are maximized. Certainly with the threat of energy resources as depleting and demand soon exceeding supply or production-supply, regardless of the truth or falsity of that claim, global corporate interests are cognizant of the associated rise in energy prices and thus the associated profits and this is certainly true in respect to growing, expanding, developing economies of India and China with their first and second highest populations. The west's somewhat dubious or uncertain status with India is one aspect of concern in what may be sitting on the horizon as an international resource war but a far more significant concern, no doubt, would be the Chinese-Russian-Iranian alliance. Russia and Iran are number one and number two respectively in natural gas resource supplies. What this may all equate to is considerable pressure or even threat on Obama from his corporate sponsors to realign the leverage significantly more in the West's favor. Considering the stakes that lie ahead there is reason to believe that some of those in positions of corporate and governmental power who are controlling the political levers may be affected by some type of combination or complex of psychopathology, ignorance and moral depravity in as much as they seem to be willing to sacrifice human life and well-being on a massive scale. On a global scale greater and greater numbers are becoming aware of the false disguises of “freedom,” “terrorism,” “nuclear aggression” as being nothing more than masks for blatant imperial aggression and a renewed agenda of colonization, especially in respect to those countries that have an abundance of energy resources.
