Tel Aviv and Tehran Clergy in Oil Price – War Scare Fraud …Iran Nuke Arsenal Exposed
The news has been filled with stories of plans by Israel or the US to bomb Iran. There was recently a series of accusations made against Iran involving the assassination of Saudi and other diplomatic officials.
These accusations were quickly discarded by most press organizations as “far fetched” but, for some reason drew responses from the US, France and others, responses that were “non linear” at best.
Why would President Obama threaten Iran over accusations that all the networks said were nonsense?
Now, sources in Iran, at the highest levels, along with sources in the US and Britain, fearful of a “scam gone awry” tell of an extraordinary plot that is ready to unfold.
Secret contacts between Prime Minister Ahmadinejad, Ayatollah Khameni and counterparts in Israel, Russia and Turkey have been uncovered outlining a plan to stage an attack on Iran by Israel with full permission of the key
groups within the leadership of the Iranian government and the clerics who oversee them.
Members of opposition
groups who have learned of this plan are livid.
The attack, scheduled for any day now, has one primary purpose.
It is meant to stabilize both the Iranian and Israeli governments, both of which have strong opposition at home and face charges of corruption and to correct major regional financial disaster each confront.
The “deal” between Israel and Iran is much closer to something out of the Sopranos than normal international relations.
This is pure “mob rule.”
THE OIL GLUT
Americans note that gasoline prices, recently at $4.50 per gallon, now approach $2.99 despite the continuation of artificial price supports due to illegal market speculation.
Gas price manipulation bankrupted the auto companies and has bled trillions of dollars out of the
American economy that, not only destroyed our balance of trade but has lowered our standard of living.

This manipulation has been to prevent downward pressure on oil prices from three major market forces.
Will We Get the Old Gas Prices Back at This Critical Economic Time – Or Will We Get Raped Instead?
1) There has been an 8% decrease in demand for oil and other petrochemical products worldwide, causing massive downward pressure on oil prices.
Price platforms that had been over $150 per barrel (2008) with current futures trading up to $120 per barrel while actual sale prices according to Platts Marketscan are at $86.00 per barrel less discounts of up to $8.00.
Corrected prices based on actual supply and demand would have oil at or below $60 per barrel and gasoline on the American market at $1.79 per gallon and on most European markets at E .79 per litre including all applicable taxes and fees.
The truth about supply issues has been suppressed. Not only is demand down but supply is skyrocketing.
2) Recent discoveries in the Eastern
Mediterranean and West Africa/Cameroon place available reserves at nearly 40% higher than estimated 3 years ago.
Accurate reporting of these reserves would make oil futures virtually worthless, something that in a normal world would be of interest to the Securities and Exchange Commission. Now its “big oil’s” time for its own “pump and dump” in the futures market. With this comes more powerful political backing for this crazed and apocalyptic scheme.
3) New gas pipelines have broken Russia’s stranglehold on the market for natural gas and will push costs and profitability in that commodity through the floor.
THE WAR FIX
There is only one way to stabilize gasoline prices that are in “free fall,” closing the
Straits of Hormuz, the narrow waterway serving Iraq, Kuwait and other Gulf States that is controlled militarily by Iran through its vast network of
Silkworm missiles will do exactly that.
Such an act would hit just like a worldwide oil embargo and could be triggered in hours by any
Israeli attack on Iran.
What had been seen, in the past, as a potential world disaster, is now just another way to make a quick buck, despite the fact that those involved are, at least according to stories in our press, “blood enemies.”
IRAN’S PROBLEM
To Save Themselves Financially – Would They Do Something Crazy?
Iran’s government is unstable, unpopular, considered extremely corrupt and is subject to pressure both internally and externally and we note from the continual talk of “sanctions.”
Post revolutionary Iran has a theocratic government, whose elected officials are subject to oversight by a religious authority.
However, it is the religious authority itself that is currently the subject of most accusations of corruption and reported to be behind this new deal with Israel.
Additionally, Iran had chosen to invest around the imagined stability of the Euro, both out of poor financial judgement and a belief it was a way of opposing the influence of the
United States in the region.
However, as the Euro is currently in total collapse and the banks looked to for providing support for the Euro, banks Iran is heavily invested in, are insolvent due to hundreds of trillions of Euros of “toxic assets,” worthless securities they have used to underwrite their most profitable lending activities.
A collapse of oil prices would lower Iran’s GNP (Gross National Product) significantly, causing additional social discord and the inability on behalf of the government to subsidize key constituencies. Currently, veterans of the Iraq/Iran war are one of the key political constituencies in Iran and are very mobilized for political action.
They stand ready to act against the current government if financial policies threaten their interests, as does the military and the Revolutionary Guard.
NOT JUST IRAN
Just look at Nigeria. With a population of nearly 200 million, any cut in revenue due to falling oil prices would threaten their already beleaguered situation, a nation facing, not only terrorism but revolution.
Venezuela faces the same as does Ghana, Sudan, Chad, Angola, Tunisia, Indonesia and a dozen other nations without the financial wherewithal to remain stable with significant changes in the oil market.
Israel’s Iran Strike Logistics Basing Area
A week ago, Israel leaked to the press that they had permission from
Saudi Arabia to use their air space to attack Iran. The Saudi’s quickly denied this.
The effort on Israel’s part was a ruse to cover their real plans, to attack from the Republic of Georgia, close to Iran’s northern border.
However, the breakdown in relations with Turkey after miscalculating the response to their Flotilla raid on a Turkish ship in international waters may have ended this operation.
Israel, whose arms agreements with Turkey mounted to nearly $5 billion dollars over a period of years, had been training pilots in Turkey for bombing attacks on Iran. During these training missions, Israel was smuggling aircraft through Turkish airspace.
Turkey had allowed Israel to use their air space for training because their terrain closely resembled areas of Iran that Israel planned to attack. However, Turkey was unaware that planes involved in this effort were being relocated to forward staging areas in the Republic of Georgia, making Turkey, technically, fully complicit in this planned illegal attack.
Helping coordinate the attack are intelligence units forward stationed in Azerbaijan, under the guise of technicians, trainers and advisers under the broad armaments agreements with that small nation.
Yes – America Has Been Talking to the Iranians
What we didn’t know but suspected, is that Iran and Israel had been doing more than talking in Dubai where both do more than occasional banking.
Back channel communications between the Iranian government and the US had been done through Indonesia with
Robert Gates as initial intermediary.
Since that time, such talks have gone through many hands. What we didn’t know is that “talks” included “plots.”
The current issue has an unusual flavor to it with money flowing freely into the hands of all involved.
Participation in such a plan, with the risk of nuclear war very real despite the careful mechanization's of the conspirators, could very well have ramifications leading to global war.
Wars have been started over less, as an assassination in Sarajevo in 1914 taught all of us.
ISRAEL
Is Netanyahu Betting It All on a Grand Slam?
Israel gets to focus its internal problems on an external enemy and, in the process, get another “big win” like the one the US got when it killed the long dead
Osama bin Laden.

Netanyahu’s belief is that his domestic opposition, more powerful than ever, will be silenced and his strained relations with the US will be repaired.
Added to “the deal” are provisions for generous financial windfalls for all involved.
Similarly, we have traced payments to Hamas made by Israel, stretching back many years.
We have also traced Israel’s control in a number of publications supposedly dedicated to the Palestinian cause, all carefully used by Israel to orchestrate tensions and derail any potential trust or cooperation.
The supposed “anti-zionist” Palestinian publications and select Islamic organizations, particularly in Lebanon, have been among Israel’s most valuable assets.
Now with the discovery of the covert relationship between Israel and Iran, this has become much more understandable, particularly in light of the new-found fear of political destabilization as Israel primary “assets” in the region, Mubarak in Egypt and Gaddafi in Libya have both fallen to what we hope will be democratic regimes.
THE WAR PLANS – NUCLEAR IRAN
 |
Thermonuclear Warhead |
We had been receiving information about
nuclear weapons in Iran for several months. Sources were given that had not checked out, Pakistan, North Korea, South Africa and even Israel.
However, one source did check out, the Ukraine. We don’t have the exact date or number but we are told that the Ukraine sold Iran 6 thermonuclear warheads, probably in or around 2003.
Iran was fearful of US forces on both borders and
nuclear weapons would have only been usable as a “last resort,” not against Israel but against American armies moving into Iran.
That the warheads are from an American ally, one being courted for NATO membership at the time, made this issue one of great sensitivity.
It was easier to continue talking about nuclear programs that didn’t exist than weapons that did.
For Iran, these weapons, back in 2003 at least, were going to be a great surprise to the neocons at PNAC (Project for a New American Century) that had planned their demise. Things never got that far.
Now Iran is stuck with weapons they can never use, not against Israel, certainly not against American forces in Iraq who are currently in full scale withdrawal. Each weapon has taken on the effect of being an albatross around Iran’s neck, far more of a security risk than asset.
WHAT WE ALSO KNOW
Discussions within the Iranian clergy, unknown to their new Israeli friends, indicate that these
nuclear devices, each deliverable by
ballistic missile, will be made operational as a “safety measure.” What can they be thinking?
One must realize that this is the same religious organization that regularly has government officials charged with witchcraft.
This highly classified information is being published at great risk by many in America,
Great Britain and Iran in hopes that that the “clear light of day” will bring about a period of reflection and a restoration of sanity.
