Introduction to Part Four: “The War in Afghanistan and the New Great Game”

As we have learned from the previous articles in this series, the petrodollar system that was cleverly crafted in the 1970′s has served America well. What began as a way to drive more demand for the U.S. dollar, in the wake of a move away from the international gold standard in 1971, has provided benefits that few could ever imagine. America’s ‘dollars for oil’ system has greatly enriched our nation at the expense of other nations and their potential prosperity. It has also helped solidify the U.S. dollar as the global currency of choice, following a temporary loss of credibility after President Nixon’s decision to close the gold window. In this fourth installment of our series, I will explain how the petrodollar system has led the U.S. into a perpetual state of war in the Middle East and Central Asia. In particular, this article will focus on the rise of Al Qaeda and the Taliban, along with what I believe may be the real reasons for the War in Afghanistan. I have entitled this piece, The Petrodollar Wars: The War in Afghanistan and the New Great Game

Austin-Fitts: Push for digital currency or a new dollar backed by food, not oil

 Catherine Austin-Fitts, former Assistant Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, was a guest on the Dec. 10 Coast to Coast AM radio show to speak on the fiscal cliff, and other economic issues facing the country going into 2013. On the subject of what may be in store for the future of the dollar, Catherine suggested that the government is working towards implementing a new digital currency, or one that would be backed by food instead of the current petro-dollar.

Karl Denninger of Market-Ticker.Org says both Romney and Obama are lying about health care reform. Denninger says drastic changes are coming no matter what, “. . . because the amount of money the federal government spends doubles every seven years . . . this is mathematically impossible.” Denninger says, “We either fix this or the government collapses along with society.” Denninger contends, “You have to kill the monopoly protections that the medical system has that prevent the free market from working.” Think we can fix the economy of health care with Federal Reserve money printing or QE? Forget it! Denninger warns, “It is a huge tax increase. . . . It acts by devaluing your purchasing power, and it falls disproportionately on the poor and lower middle class.” Join Greg Hunter as he goes One-on-One with Karl Denninger of Market-Ticker.org.

Bottled Water Without Fluoride

Editor's Note:  A recent Harvard study shows that fluoride reduces IQ in children.

[...]
In a meta-analysis, researchers from Harvard School of Public Health (HSPH) and China Medical University in Shenyang for the first time combined 27 studies and found strong indications that fluoride may adversely affect cognitive development in children.
[...]

It might be a good idea to avoid the on-purpose fluoridated baby water, at the very least.

Got Fluoride?

Fluoride Health Problems

There is a lot of controversy surrounding the presence of fluoride in public drinking water (fluoridation). For starters, before fluoride was used to fight cavities, it was (and still is) used in insecticides and rat poision.
Fluorosis is a condition that wears down the enamal of the tooth, leaving behind white spots, making the teeth more vulnerable to cavities and decay. Fluorosis is a very real health condition that can effect both children and adults. More and more evidence is mounting against the use of fluoride, even in small amounts. But it doesn't appear to be a critical issue according to the US Surgeon Generals, as the last 5 Surgeon Generals have supported the fluoridation of drinking water. Incidentally, the claimed health benefits almost always point to oral health. Fortunately, the CDC is calling for new labeling rules requiring manufacturers to list a product's fluoride content, which we have found to be missing in some cases.

What is too much Fluoride?

Fluoride itself is actually required by our bodies in low doses. When consumed in high amounts, specifically the man-made fluoride that is in public drinking water, can cause problems. An estimated 5-10g of sodium fluoride can be lethal for some adults. While fluoride provides benefits to your oral health, it can also come with adverse side effects, that vary in severity depending upon the amount of fluoride consumed. Excessive consumption of fluoride can lead to gastrointestinal discomfort. This can occur with doses 15 to 20 times lower than actual lethal doses (0.2-0.3mg/kg). Fluoride in exessive amounts can also cause problems in the formation bone.

• Children under 6: (Toothpaste) - "A pea sized amount"
• Adults: (Toothpaste) fluoride dentifrice (1,000 ppmF) or 1.0 g or more for adults

Matt Taibbi: The Secret to Mitt Romney's Fortune? Greed, Debt and Forcing Others to Pay Bill

Source: Democracy Now
Date: 8/30/2012
by: Amy Goodman, Matt Taibbi

Video Description

DemocracyNow.org - A new article by reporter Matt Taibbi in Rolling Stone (Greed and Debt: The True Story of Mitt Romney and Bain Capital) sheds new light on the origin of Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney's fortune, revealing how Romney's former firm, Bain Capital, used private equity to raise money to conduct corporate raids. Taibbi writes: "What most voters don't know is the way Mitt Romney actually made his fortune: By borrowing vast sums of money that other people were forced to pay back. This is the plain, stark reality that has somehow eluded America's top political journalists for two consecutive presidential campaigns: Mitt Romney is one of the greatest and most irresponsible debt creators of all time. In the past few decades, in fact, Romney has piled more debt onto more unsuspecting companies, written more gigantic checks that other people have to cover, than perhaps all but a handful of people on planet Earth."

11 International Agreements That Are Nails In The Coffin Of The Petrodollar

Source: The Economic Collapse
Date: 7/17/2012

Is the petrodollar dead?  Well, not yet, but the nails are being hammered into the coffin even as you read this.  For decades, most of the nations of the world have used the U.S. dollar to buy oil and to trade with each other.  In essence, the U.S. dollar has been acting as a true global currency.  Virtually every country on the face of the earth has needed big piles of U.S. dollars for international trade.  This has ensured a huge demand for U.S. dollars and U.S. government debt.  This demand for dollars has kept prices and interest rates low, and it has given the U.S. government an incredible amount of power and leverage around the globe.  Right now, U.S. dollars make up more than 60 percent of all foreign currency reserves in the world.  But times are changing.  Over the past couple of years there has been a whole bunch of international agreements that have made the U.S. dollar less important in international trade.  The mainstream media in the United States has been strangely quiet about all of these agreements, but the truth is that they are setting the stage for a fundamental shift in the way that trade is conducted around the globe.  When the petrodollar dies, it is going to have an absolutely devastating impact on the U.S. economy.  Sadly, most Americans are totally clueless regarding what is about to happen to the dollar.

One of the reasons the Federal Reserve has been able to get away with flooding the financial system with U.S. dollars is because the rest of the world has been soaking a lot of those dollars up.  The rest of the world has needed giant piles of dollars to trade with, but what is going to happen when they don't need dollars anymore?

Could we see a tsunami of inflation as demand for the dollar plummets like a rock?
The power of the U.S. dollar has been one of the few things holding up our economy.  Once that leg gets kicked out from under us we are going to be in a whole lot of trouble.
The following are 11 international agreements that are nails in the coffin of the petrodollar....

For Investors and Customers, PFG is MF Global all Over Again...

Welcome to Capital Account. More than $200 million in customer money is allegedly missing from the accounts of one of the largest, non-clearing, US futures commission merchants, PFG Best. That's according to regulators. The money was supposed to be in segregated customer accounts. Customers have been told their money is frozen. Does this sound oddly familiar? We will hear from two PFG Best customers, Christopher Olson and Mohamed Hawary.

And there is evidence PFG Best may have been committing fraud with falsified statements for years, according to regulators. The FBI is investigating, the CFTC is alleging fraud, but why did regulators miss this? We'll talk about what this shortfall means for investor confidence when a regulated broker can get away with this undetected for years.

And this is not the first time sacrosanct segregated customer funds have gone missing. MF Global went bankrupt less than a year ago taking $1.6 billion in customer money with it. We talk to a man fighting for MF Global customers about why he is having deja vu in the wake of this PFG news. John Roe, co-founder of the Commodity Customer Coalition, joins us.

As for some of the details into the PFG complaint, the National Futures Association (NFA), the broker's first line regulator, discovered during an audit that a US bank account PFG reported was holding $225 million in customer accounts contained only $5. The NFA also alleges the $207 million balance reported in February 2010 and the $208 million balance reported in March 2011, were falsified. PFG's actual balances at those times was less than $10 million for each of the months.

The CFTC, the Commodities Future Trading Commission, filed a complaint against Peregrine Financial Group (or PFG) and its owner Russell Wasendorf. The CFTC alleges fraud by misappropriating customer funds, violating customer segregation laws, and making false statements in financial statements.

Exclusive Update: Veteran Arrested At Bilderberg Protest, Abused in Custody

by: Carrie R Medina and Garrett Cavett

Garrett Cavett is the U.S. Army veteran who was arrested on Thursday, May 31st at the Occupy Bilderberg 2012 protest, forcefully injected with what he was told was a tuberculosis test (the mysterious injection caused Garrett to have a metallic taste in his mouth and dry heaves), sexually molested via multiple unnecessary grope-downs and then re-arrested a second time on Saturday, June 2nd by the Fairfax County Police. From all accounts (including video footage of Garrett's first arrest) his only crime was standing in the middle of the road to get a better look at the Bilderberg attendees as they arrived at the Westfield Marriott. Per Garrett, the cops did try to pigeonhole him as a drunk even though he offered to take a breathalizer to prove to the magistrate he was sober.

Following is a recent interview by independent journalist and live streamer Carrie Medina of Garrett Cavett after he has arrived back home in Oregon. Learn why Garrett went to Chantilly, Virginia to protest the 2012 Bilderberg Group meeting and about his harrowing experience with the cops:

(NaturalNews) The popular 1997 science fiction film Gattaca portrays a futuristic world in which human beings genetically engineered (GE) with certain desirable and superior genetic traits are given preference to natural-born human beings who are considered inferior. And in just 15 years since the release of the film, this scenario has become a reality, as modern science has come up with a new way to test unborn babies for roughly 3,500 so-called genetic "defects."

Alternative Media Becoming Mainstream

by: Abby Martin and Aaron Dykes

There is a new trend emerging.  People are increasingly turning to the alternative media for their information and leaving corporate media outlets such as CNN (whose ratings are at 20 year lows) on the wayside.  Upstart independent media is willing to deliver stories which the corporate media tends not to report on because it might upset the owners.  An example is the total black-out of corporate media reporting concerning the Bilderberg Group meetings which have been going on since 1954. Indie journalist Abby Martin notes that the Washington Post has only recently started reporting on Bilderberg.  This is no surprise as the owner Katharine Graham and her son themselves have been frequent attendees at the Bilderberg Group meetings.  Essentially, the Bilderberg Group is the apex of the world's elite round table groups where members actually often have overlapping membership in other elitist organizations such as the Trilateral Commission, Council on Foreign Relations or various think tanks and tax-exempt foundations.  Here the so-called "elites" decide how they might best rule over us and what direction to take the world in (which violates the Logan Act and bypasses our representative form of government).

Devastating 1966 Documents Blows Bilderberg Agenda Wide Open!!

Source: Infowars
Date: 6/6/2012
by: Aaron Dykes

Video Description

Editor's Note: We have obtained hundreds of documents from the 1966 meeting. This is a Wikileaks-sized data dump and we will be writing several more articles over the next few days to cover the myriad of different issues at hand.

Leaked documents from the 1966 Bilderberg Group conference exclusively obtained by Infowars betray how even as far back as five decades ago U.S. Senators were being indoctrinated with the belief that "nationalism is dangerous" by Bilderberg elitists, in addition to top union heads scheming behind their members' backs with titans of capitalism and industry.

Previously leaked documents from meetings have illustrated how the Bilderberg Group, contrary to the media-generated myth that the confab represents a harmless talking shop, sets the consensus for policy decisions sometimes decades in advance.

A clear example is the 1955 Bilderberg meeting held in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, West Germany. Documents read by the BBC and later released by Wikileaks divulge how Bilderberg members were discussing the creation of the euro single currency nearly 40 years before it was officially introduced in the 1992 Maastricht Treaty.

The documents obtained by Infowars are from the Bilderberg Group meeting which took place in Wiesbaden, Germany in late March 1966.. The files are marked "personal and strictly confidential," and "Not for publication either in whole or in part." They consist of Bilderberg's agenda for that year's confab along with hand-written notes made by Democratic U.S. Senator for Oklahoma Fred R. Harris, who attended the meeting.

Participants in the 1966 conference included well known figures such as David Rockefeller, Zbigniew Brzezinski, and John J. McCloy, who served on the Warren Commission and was a member of the foreign policy establishment group of elders called "The Wise Men."

Harris had only been in office for less than two years before he was invited to the Bilderberg confab, suggesting he was being sounded out for potential grooming for higher office. The former Senator is still alive and currently works as a professor of political science at the University of New Mexico.

Included in the documents is the official invitation Harris received from Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands, Bilderberg founder and member of the German Nazi party. The letter is personally signed by the Prince.

The most alarming portion of Harris' hand-written notes concern a speech given during the Bilderberg confab by one time Communist Party member and union leader Walter P. Reuther, who was politically active from the 1930′s up until his death in 1970. Reuther was a leading force in the United Automobile Workers (UAW) and later helped set up the International Confederation of Free Trade Unions.

#Bilderberg2012 Memorable Arrests

Probably the most shocking arrest which occurred during the Occupy Bilderberg 2012 protest in Chantilly, Virgina is the arrest of U.S. Army veteran and Oregon native Garrett Cavett (g.cavett@yahoo.com) who was taken in to custody on Thursday May 31st, 2012 by the Fairfax County Police for nothing other than being in the middle of the road and almost getting hit by one of the Bilderberg attendee vehicles.

Per Garrett, he was not only injected with a mysterious substance which made him ill, gave him a metallic taste in his mouth and dry heaves (Mr. Cavett was told it was a tuberculosis test) but was also subjected to a pointless sexual molestation grope-down not just once but three times.  The initial arrest of Garrett and an older gentleman (who from the looks of his home-made T-shirt is a Ron Paul supporter) was captured by livestreamer Luke Rudkowski of WeAreChange:

When I left for the NATO summit, I expected the police in Chicago were going to be oppressive against protesters, if not downright violent. There had been quite a bit of media buzz around the Chicago Police Department having spent a million dollars on riot and tactical gear, as well as them announcing they had an LRAD (long-range acoustic device), a military weapon capable of emitting painful noises to disburse crowds. Residents of Chicago had been advised to not wear suits (so as not to enrage the protesters), stay indoors, have food and water on-hand, and even to leave town if possible. From my perspective, this was obvious fear-mongering on the part of the police. There was little reason to believe that a peaceful anti-war protest was going to turn into the LA riots. I had no idea, however, how the police were going to act.

Welcome to the #hydrino based economy courtesy of Blacklight, Power Inc.

This news release today really caught my eye.  After decades of R&D, Blacklight Power, Inc. might finally release a commercial product as early as 2013.  Per their recent May 22, 2012 news release obtained from MarketWatch, Blacklight's novel CIHT process (basically direct electricity generation from a new kind of fractional quantum state hydrogen atom called the hydrino, which is coaxed in to existence from plain old water vapor) has been validated by six independent sources, including MIT and the California Institute of Technology.  Dr. Randell L. Mills' (chairman of the board, CEO and President of Blacklight Power, Inc.) hydrino theory, which suggests that the hydrogen atom can actually take on a more stable fractional quantum state than the currently known/accepted ground state, has been met with extreme skepticism in the past.  As an example, Dr. Michio Kaku, theoretical physicist from City College of New York (whom I have the utmost respect for btw) once called the hydrino theory "dumb."

However, it appears that some scientists have started to warm up to the idea of the hydrino.  Quoting W. Henry Weinberg professor of Chemical Engineering, Chemistry and Applied Physics at California Institute of Technology:

"It would be irrational not to be very skeptical, and I was extremely skeptical. However, after having reviewed Dr. Mills classical theory, participated in experimental designs and execution, and having reviewed vast amounts of other data BLP produced, I have found nothing that warrants rejection of their extraordinary claims, and I encourage aggressive optimization and fast track development of a scaled up prototype," said Dr. Weinberg. "To be able to use hydrogen from water as a cheap and nonpolluting source of power would represent one of the most important technological breakthroughs in history."[1]

Refer to the article I wrote back in December of 2010 titled Blacklight Power, Inc. Survives Over a Decade of Skepticism for further details on this revolutionary technology and company.

Chicago Police Van Runs over Protesters and Journalists Raided by Police

The day before the first day of the NATO summit had some unusual and highly disturbing events. A police van apparently encountered a group of protesters and the driver gunned the engine to force them aside. One man (Jack "Mayhem" Amico) was seriously injured and taken to the emergency room.

At approximately 10:40 p.m. on Saturday, May 19th, 2012 a Chicago Police van drove into a crowd of demonstrators who were attempting to cross westbound over the Jackson Street bridge at the Chicago River.

Chicago Police van number 6751, accelerated as it passed through the crowd, striking several people and seriously injuring one victim who was later transported to the emergency room. The extent of the victim's injuries are not known.

The driver of the van made no attempt to ascertain the condition of any of the people that were struck. Witnesses watched as the van passed through the phalanx of police surrounding the scene and drove away from the area. Had there been a civilian driving, they would certainly have been charged with a hit-and-run on a pedestrian in the roadway and taken into custody once they had been apprehended.

No order to disperse had been given to the crowd. The van was running it's siren, however police vans in close proximity to the rear of the crowd had been running their sirens all day, so it was not immediately noticed that the van was intending to pass through the crowd. The occupants of the van made no attempt to use the public address loudspeakers to warn those in their path.

Here is a close-up of the man being hit:


In addition, some peaceful live streaming journalists Luke Rudkowksi, Tim Pool, Jeoff Shively, Dustin and Jess were driving home after covering a NATO protest in Chicago only to have their car raided by police. They were approached by 12 Chicago police officers with guns drawn and spent the rest of the night checking their gear for planted evidence or bugs and looking for new lodging.

Cold Fusion Now attended the Nuclear and Emerging Technology for Space NETS conference held in conjunction with the Lunar and Planetary Institute‘s meeting the week of March 19 in The Woodlands, Texas. It was a fortuitous stop to catch Session 462: Advanced Concepts: LENR, Anti-Matter, and New Physics [.pdf here].
Talks entitled Advanced Propulsion Physics: Harnessing the Quantum Vacuum by Harry “Sonny” White and Project Icarus: Antimatter Catalyzed Fusion Propulsion for Interstellar Missions by R. K. Obousy, not to mention Y. E. Kim‘s Cryogenic Ignition of Deuteron Fusion in Micro/nano Scale Metal Particles, promised a worthwhile trip.

George H. Miley, Professor Emeritus of the University of Illinois Urbana-Champagne UIUC was also scheduled to speak on A Game-Changing Power Source for Spacecraft [.pdf here], a talk outlining a LENR-based General Purpose Heating Source to replace the plutonium currently used in today’s Radioisotope Thermoelectric Generators RTGs that provide heat and electricity to power science instruments on spacecraft.

Brillouin Energy Corporation's Hypothesis on the Mechanics of "Cold Fusion" is Similar to Widom-Larsen Theory

Brillouin Energy Corporation has apparently arrived independently upon their own hypothesis for the mechanics behind the Fleishmann-Pons Effect (cold "fusion"), which is actually very similar to the Widom-Larsen theory.  According to Robert Godes the Chief Technology Officer, their own proprietary method of bringing about the Fleishman-Pons Effect is done via CECR (Controlled Electron Capture Reaction).  In CECR a proton is induced to absorb an electron by firing an electromagnetic wave generated by Brillouin’s proprietary electronic pulse generator in to a suitable metal hydride.  An endothermic reaction occurs in which some of the protons in the metal absorb an electron to form low energy (higher mass) neutrons and neutrinos.

The low energy neutrons produced are then capable of being captured by the nuclei of surrounding atoms.  The metal lattice of suitable composition, such as Palladium or Nickel, is loaded (infused) with light or heavy (deuterium) hydrogen before-hands.  When the nucleus of an atom absorbs one of the low energy neutrons, a new isotope of the element is created.  If the newly created isotope is of an unstable variety, one of the neutrons in the nucleus will beta decay in to a proton and electron.  The original atom therefore is transformed in to a heavier element (original atomic number +1 proton).  A large amount of energy, in the form of heat, is released as well.


Thus what Martin Fleishmann and Stanley Pons described back in 1989 as being cold "fusion" is quite possibly not really the fusing of two nuclei, but rather the result of weak nuclear interactions as hypothesized by Robert Godes, Dr. Allan Widom, Lewis Larsen, Brian Ahern or others.

There is a really good simplified explanation of the Widom-Larsen theory described by Dr. Srivastava in his lecture at the New Energy Times website titled, 13. Widom-Larsen Theory Simplified.  If you are lost, that is the key article to read for an explanation.  Most scientists believe that the Coulomb barrier (the repulsive force between the nucleus of atoms which contain positively charged protons) is not possible to be overcome at low temperatures and pressures in order for fusion to take place (under normal conditions on the Earth for example).  Fusion of Hydrogen atoms is theorized to occur on the Sun, where the high temperature and pressure caused by gravity allow the Hydrogen nuclei to overcome the Coulomb barrier and combine to make Helium and a large amount of energy.

The Widom-Larsen theory proposes that "weak interactions" are responsible for what originally was described as cold "fusion" by Martin Fleishmann and Stanley Pons in 1989.  Rather than actual fusion taking place, what the WL theory proposes is that protons combine with electrons to form ULM "ultra-low momentum" neutrons and neutrinos (reverse beta decay) which are then absorbed by the nucleus of atoms.  Since the charge of a neutron is neutral, there is no Coulomb barrier to overcome.  It is proposed by WL theory that once the atom absorbs the ULM neutron, a new isotope of the original element is created which may actually be unstable.  The absorbed neutron in the now unstable isotope would then "beta decay" to create a proton and electron so that the atomic number of the original element's atom that absorbed the neutron is increased by 1, thus being transformed in to a new heavier element.  This entire process creates a lot of excess heat not explainable by a chemical reaction.  So on the surface it appears that fusing of elements has occurred when in fact it was neutron absorption and beta decay...

Tungsten-Filled 1 Kilo Gold Bar Found In The UK

Photos of the cropped bars:

1000g Gold bar cut showing inserted tungsten rods	Two halves of the cropped bar:

The last time a story of Tungsten-filled gold appeared on the scene was just two years ago, and involved a 500 gram bar of gold full of tungsten, at the W.C. Heraeus foundry, the world's largest metal refiner and fabricator. It also became known that said "gold" bar originated from an unnamed bank. It is now time to rekindle the Tungsten Spirits with a report from ABC Bullion of Australia, which provides photographic evidence of a new gold bar that has been drilled out and filled with tungsten rods, this time not in Germany but in an unnamed city in the UK, where it was intercepted by a scrap metals dealer, and was supplied with its original certificate. The reason the bar attracted attention is that it was 2 grams underweight. Upon cropping it was uncovered that about 30-40% of the bar weight was tungsten. So two documented incidents in two years: isolated? Or indication of the same phenomonenon of precious metal debasement that marked the declining phase of the Roman empire. Only then it was relatively public for anyone who cared to find out on their own. Now, with the bulk of popular physical gold held in top secret, private warehouses around the world, where it allegedly backs the balance sheets of the world's central banks, yet nobody can confirm its existence, nor audit the actual gold content, it is understandable why increasingly more are wondering: just how much gold is there? And alongside that - while gold, (or is it GLD?), can be rehypothecated, can one do the same with tungsten?

Matt Taibbi Discusses BofA Fraud/Bailouts and Resignation of GS Exec Greg Smith

Source: Democracy Now
Date: 3/22/2012

Description

In his new article, "Bank of America: Too Crooked to Fail," Rolling Stone reporter Matt Taibbi chronicles the remarkable history of the rise of Bank of America -- an institution he says has defrauded "everyone from investors and insurers to homeowners and the unemployed." Taibbi describes how the Bush and Obama administrations have repeatedly propped up the financial institution, which received a $45 billion taxpayer bailout in 2008. Bank of America has also received billions in what could be described as shadow bailouts. The bank now owns more than 12 percent of the nation's bank deposits and 17 percent of all home mortgages.

Also discussed is Goldman Sach's history of denigrating its own clients, as recently highlighted by former Goldman executive Greg Smith's explosive resignation letter in the New York Times. Decrying what he called Goldman's "toxic" culture, Smith said bosses at the firm called their clients "muppets" and strove to maximize profits at the expense of client interests, adding: "It makes me ill how callously people talk about ripping their clients off." Goldman Sachs is now reportedly scanning internal emails for the term "muppet" and other evidence that employees referred to clients in derogatory ways. Taibbi argues it is naive to think there was ever a "golden era" when Goldman Sachs was a great financial institution.

[Editor's Note: Learn about a key aspect of our economic system that perhaps is not emphasized enough in its importance.  After the collapse of the Bretton Woods agreement and the gold standard, a scheme to prop up the U.S. dollar was devised and sold to the Arab nations by the Nixon administration.  In 1973 Henry Kissinger was sent over to negotiate this deal with the Saudis in which it was agreed that Saudi Arabia would trade her oil only in US dollars.  In return the Saudis received weapons and protection from the United States.  The OPEC nations by 1975 had followed suit...]

Race for cold fusion: Nasa, MIT, Darpa and Cern peer through the keyhole

Four months ago, Andrea Rossi demonstrated what he claims was a one-megawatt "Energy Catalyser" -- or E-Cat -- which produces power by cold fusion. This technology, also known as Low Energy Nuclear Reaction (LENR), had been consigned to the deepest cellar of fringe science.

Now it's hammering on the cellar door, and Nasa, MIT, Darpa and Cern are among those peering through the keyhole, wondering if it should be allowed back in with respectable science. As part of Wired.co.uk's continued coverage of progress in this controversial field, we have investigated recent developments.

Cold Fusion, Oil and the US Dollar

Date: 2/7/2012

In the last few articles, an attempt has been made on this site to explore some real world scenarios that may be taking place behind the scenes in regards to cold fusion and how government and otherwise influential entities, like corporations and the military, may be responding to the increasing body of evidence that cold fusion/LENR has not been debunked and in fact its existence is supported by an ever growing amount of evidence, and being confirmed by a wider and wider group of scientists and researchers.  If you have not read Tom Baccei’s previous articles that explore such scenarios, they can be found here and here.  These have attempts to explain why in spite of the growing evidence (actually undeniable if one takes the time to review the evidence contained on this site and elsewhere, especially lenr-canr.org), the defining moment where the reality of this technology becomes apparent to the masses continues to be elusive.  NASA’s January 12 LENR video was very nearly the push that was needed to take this subject out of the shadows.  It actually succeeded but only for a very brief time.  Below are two charts related to LENR searches on Google.  The first chart plots Google searches for the term LENR from 2004 to the present.  The second chart plots Google searches for the term NASA LENR from 2004 to the present.

Will Iran Kill the Petrodollar?

Source: Casey Research
Date: January 25, 2012 7:46pm GMT
by: Marin Katusa, Chief Energy Investment Strategist

The official line from the United States and the European Union is that Tehran must be punished for continuing its efforts to develop a nuclear weapon. The punishment: sanctions on Iran's oil exports, which are meant to isolate Iran and depress the value of its currency to such a point that the country crumbles.
But that line doesn't make sense, and the sanctions will not achieve their goals. Iran is far from isolated and its friends – like India – will stand by the oil-producing nation until the US either backs down or acknowledges the real matter at hand. That matter is the American dollar and its role as the global reserve currency.

The short version of the story is that a 1970s deal cemented the US dollar as the only currency to buy and sell crude oil, and from that monopoly on the all-important oil trade the US dollar slowly but surely became the reserve currency for global trades in most commodities and goods. Massive demand for US dollars ensued, pushing the dollar's value up, up, and away. In addition, countries stored their excess US dollars savings in US Treasuries, giving the US government a vast pool of credit from which to draw.
