1. BEHIND THE MAD RUSH TO BOMB IRAN - Opening of Teheran's Euro-Based Oil Exchange Spells Doom for US Dollar Dominance. MEDIA AVAILABILITY

Worldwide Flight from Dollar, Currency Crisis, and Run on US Banks Loom.
A few nuclear bombs in Iranian hands are no strategic threat to the US or even Israel.
But Iran's new oil bourse could oust the dollar as the world's reserve currency, stampede central banks to shift a trillion dollars into the euro and other currencies, and implode US stock price and real estate bubbles.
Any military solution will be an even greater disaster than the Iraq adventure.

Washington, January 26. Author and historian Webster Griffin Tarpley warned today that the Bush administration is in the advanced stages of planning for a catastrophic nuclear sneak attack on Iran. The goal, said Tarpley, would be incidentally to disable Iran's nuclear capacity, but mainly to prevent the opening -- timed to coincide with the Iranian New Year on March 20 -- of the first non-dollar international oil market since 1944.

"A few nuclear bombs in Iranian hands hardly add up to a strategic threat to the United States," said Tarpley. "But the new Iranian euro-based oil market or oil bourse as it is called has the potential to oust the dollar as the world's reserve currency, causing central banks to shift a trillion dollars or more in reserves into the euro and other destinations. That would spell immediate doom for the US stock price bubble and real estate bubble as hot money streamed out of this country. It would cut Wall Street and London out of a myriad of lucrative transactions, and deprive the US-UK combine of their ability to interfere in access to other people's oil," he added.

The Iranian oil bourse would be the first euro-based oil market in the recent history of the world where sellers and buyers of oil could come together for spot and futures transactions independent of the dollar, thus outside US control and without Wall Street skimming off a hefty part of the profits. Today's privileged position for the dollar is "obsolete and removed from reality," Tarpley asserted.

"The 213-point drop in the Dow last Friday on reports that Iran was shifting funds out of Europe is the merest hint of what may be coming," Tarpley noted. "If the Iranian oil bourse opens, the colossal instability to the dollar, the stock market, and the US banking system will very likely be revealed rather quickly."

The current system allows the US to export unlimited supplies of dollar bills to buy goods abroad, resulting in a yearly trade deficit of $700 billion and counting. Americans should not feel threatened by the inevitable crisis of this system, Tarpley pointed out, since the unique US privilege of importing without producing, as world dumping ground and buyer of last resort, has cut the US standard of living in half since 1970, creating a low-wage economy. It is time for the US once again to earn foreign exchange by producing exports which will mean jobs and prosperity here.

"A rational way out would be to rebuild the world monetary system around fixed parities among the dollar, the euro, and the yen as equal participants, with gold settlement and a credit mechanism to expand exports of capital goods. This would avoid a new general war."

"As for 'Helicopter Ben' Bernanke, the incoming Federal Reserve boss, he is clearly getting ready to gin up the printing presses to print an avalanche of paper dollars if the Chinese and Japanese demand cash for their plummeting US Treasury bonds in the near future -- what economists call monetization of the debt. The Fed will soon stop publishing the M3 data series on the money supply, which is the one that would reveal a monetization of debt. Bernanke seems to have Weimar-style hyperinflation written all over him," Tarpley commented.

"The lunatic neocon war plan for Iran is doomed to failure, just as their Iraq adventure was," Tarpley concluded. "If attacked, there is every indication Iran would cut the world oil aorta at the Straits of Hormuz, fire off missiles at Israel and other targets, and unleash Iraqi Shiites and Iranian volunteers around Basra. The position of the US and especially the UK forces there would soon become extraordinarily critical. If Russians and Chinese were killed in the raids, the stage would be set for larger confrontation. All of this would guarantee endless war and economic ruin for the US and the dollar. Why not avoid this incalculable folly by calling right now for a new Bretton Woods international monetary conference, which would be welcomed by the world community as a whole?"

Webster G. Tarpley is an experienced political expert based near Washington DC. He is the author of "George Bush: The Unauthorized Biography" (1992), "Surviving the Cataclysm" (1999) a study of the world financial crisis, and "9/11 Synthetic Terror: Made in USA" (second edition 2006), the first work to tie 9/11 to the neocon "flight forward" into military expansionism in an attempt to shore up the dollar. The revised edition also covers the war drive against Iran.

Tarpley's 1992 Bush biography was the first to document the Bush family's support of Hitler. Investors who followed his 1999 advice to buy gold in "Surviving the Cataclysm" have doubled their money now. His "Who Killed Aldo Moro" (1978) was the first to expose the Red Brigades as "synthetic terror" assets of the neofascist P2 lodge.

Scene Set for the Clash of Civilizations

Summary:Late-breaking and long-term developments in Iran, Palestine and the United States seem to point to a present risk of catastrophic nuclear war.Islamic nations goaded into position to be attacked again.Will terror provocations be used to invoke a police state?What price will be exacted for centuries of ignoring how war pretexts are fabricated?

Joshua Tree, Calif, January 28, 2006.

I've never been the Chicken Little type to panic about things like Y2K, yet I seem to see deadly deadlines drawn in the sand now.

Take the following mixture. Will it explode?

1. Iran elects extremist leader Ahmadinejad who drops a triple gauntlet: denying Israel's right to exist, taking the seals off the nuclear genie, and opening an oil market in euros to undercut the dominance of the beleaguered American dollar.

2. Palestine elects Hamas, just as hardline on the illegality of the Zionist project, and committed by charter to an Islamic state over the entire territory of Palestine.

3. Sharon in a coma, next war criminal Netanyahu in the wings, Israelis are itching for a nuclear attack on Iran.

4. Russia on the verge of selling modern anti-aircraft missiles to Iran that might protect it from US bombers, but may pull back now because of the nuclear issue. Russia unveils its Topol missile that can penetrate any US anti-missile defense for the foreseeable future.

5. The world's presiding figurehead George Bush is a scion of the arch-fascist dynasty that launched Adolf Hitler. Last time his poll ratings suffered, he was saved by 9/11 terror and wars of aggression. The Senate is poised to vote on his candidate Alito for the Supreme Court who favors dictatorial executive powers.

6. Bin Laden's ghostly voice breaks a long silence to endorse the doctrine of justified revenge against the empire.

7. Rumors swirl on the Internet that the faction inside the US milinplex that scenarized 9/11 will fake a nuke attack on a US city this week, under cover of an anti-terror drill.

Does it all fit together? Big or little chicken, to me it does, yes. All these are aspects of the divide and conquer intrigue that has kept the Anglo Axis on top of the heap for centuries.

The main tricks in the bag are few and simple enough: - Fostering ethnic and religious minorities and fanatics to destabilize rival empires, especially right-wing extremists who are destroyed when their dirty work is done; - Countergang tactics, the secret sponsoring of atrocities in the name of a rival.

What's mind-boggling is the world-historical scope of their application.

The rise and fall of German Nazism and Russian Communism in the last century, as well as the trend to Islamic fundamentalism over the last two centuries - as seen in this year's elections in Iran and Palestine - have been fruits of the tactic of injecting extremism to incapacitate potential rivals.

This flies flat in the face of orthodox accidentalism, but it has been documented by historians. Anthony Sutton showed how Wall Street intervened on behalf of the Bolsheviks. Webster Tarpley chronicled the financing of Hitler by US-UK plutocrats in his "George Bush: The Unauthorized Biography," and the invention of Islamic fundamentalism by psychological warfare experts in the British Arab Bureau in the 19th century, in order to hobble and isolate the Arab world, in "9/11 Synthetic Terror: Made in USA," ch. 14.

The creation of the "state of Israel" was the empire's master stroke that combines all these tricks: a perfect example of sponsoring a minority to destabilize an empire, even a potential one like the Arab world; of dividing and conquering, splitting the Asian and African halves of the Muslim world from each other; of fostering right-wing extremism and theocracy, both among the Arab population and the Ashkenazi colonists; and a full-time field laboratory for synthetic terrorism.

So the stage is set. It was well documented by the October Surprise and Iran-Contra scandals that the Ayatollahs of the last generation were right-wing tools of the Bush cabal behind Reagan (Tarpley). The election of the dupe Ahmadinejad is their latest trump. His timing on the nuclear issue was perfect to give the Russians a pretext to pull out from supplying the anti-aircraft weapons that could have protected them, and of course, the Americans get a pretext to smash Teheran before the new oil bourse can knock the pins out from under the global hegemony of the Useless Elite.

Ahmadinejad and Hamas have each drawn a huge X on the map of their own countries to be targeted for further punishment. Hamas, of course, got its start with funding from Sharon's Israel as "a counterweight to the PLO." They always do all they can to undermine any secular, modern political movement in target countries.

The cunning of the Anglos is extraordinary. Imposing their language and culture on the world has helped these wolves in sheep's clothing convince the world of their national cuddly nature. Through their stooges Hitler and Stalin, the German and Russian peoples acquired the recognized reputation for genocide - camouflaging the fact that the feat of liquidating and replacing the native populations of two continents, North America and Australia, is unique in the history of the world, to the true genocidalists extraordinaire: the Anglos.

Are they dangerous? History has amply revealed the intentions of the folk who set up a little beachhead 400 years ago on Cape Cod, the same nation that infiltrated colonists into Haifa and Jaffa because two continents are not Lebensraum enough. As for the American cousins, Bush Sr. was a leader of the eugenics and sterilization movement, Bush Jr. holds the record for executions, and their vizier Kissinger coined the genocidalist's motto: eliminate the useless eaters.

Mind you, that includes you, me and most of the planet.

It's exactly 400 years since the Anglos launched their empire with a war against Spain on the trumped-up pretext of the Guy Fawkes plot of 1605, which the Lord Chancellor himself had covertly arranged, just as 9/11 was an inside job - "the secret sponsoring of atrocities in the name of a rival." All this works on a paradoxical principle we could call reverse impact: the radical psychological warfighting method of covertly impersonating the rival or "enemy."

Most of humanity remains much too firmly wedded to simplistic thinking to even conceive of such a threat - implausibility becomes the perfect cover for the unthinkable. Our hapless human race is stuck at the toddler stage, oscillating between teddy-bear naïveté and mindless destructiveness. And the babysitter is Caligula, assisted by TV and schools which the vicious owners of our world control to keep the mental cage tight.

Only children and romantics still believe in the supreme power of nature in the modern world. This is Animal Farm, and most humans, like most of the other surviving large mammals, are farm animals on it. A few men are the masters, and even the seemingly spontaneous trends of current events is largely under their control.

Humanity is almost totally paralyzed in facing this challenge and seeing the hand of the herder and butcher. It lags light years behind in the kinds of knowledge that would remove this cancer, in near total ignorance of reverse impact tactics, or of the two types of conditioning that automate its existence, the repetitious and the traumatic. It stubbornly clings to simplistic and transactional thinking in a narrow scope. On this, our race doesn't make it to first base. It strikes out again and again on the same old tricks.

So on to # 6. Bin Laden was and always will be the creation of Brzezinski and the tool of the CIA and MI-6. He is probably dead, as Robert Fisk noted, wondering why no video, only audio? Only his master's voice remains, produced at will on a voice synthesizer. So why does the synthetic voice of synthetic terror endorse William Blum, the Marxist critic, and his catalogue of American war crimes all over the planet?

For one, this fakery outwardly appears to validate the flagging authenticity of the Bin Laden myth, as it outwardly seems too implausible that the CIA would give a boost to a book like "Rogue State." However, those who read such a work on "bin Laden's" endorsement are already hostile to that state anyway. Blum will reinforce them, as Tarpley points out, in the "blowback" notion, that 9/11 was an act of terror in revenge. This can only poison and confuse leftist minds, since no oppression justifies an attack on innocent victims, and bin Laden had nothing to do with 9/11 anyway.

Terror began as and always remained primarily a reverse impact tool of the state, a raw material for propaganda. The "bin Laden" message is crafted to play to useful effect on different publics. Mainstream opinion is repulsed by it, and if bin Laden embraces Blum, that serves to absolve Uncle Sam of the sins Blum accused him of. Rightwing fools rejoice. The Arab world is plunged even further into confusion. Since Muslims feel their grievances against the Anglo-American-Ashkenazi Axis so acutely, the message makes it all too tempting to believe the "Arab rage" scenario, rather than joining in the effort to unmask 9/11 as the work of Western secret services, an effort which holds perhaps the only key to getting the monkey of war off the back of Islam.

And so to # 7, drills and chills. In the 2006 edition of "9/11 Synthetic Terror," Tarpley underscores how "anti-terror drills" were used as props to set up false-flag terror exploits like 9/11 and London 7/7. He calls on activists to identify such drills, to agitate and demonstrate against them, to broadcast the threat that the drill may be a cover for the state terror faction to carry out the real thing, to mobilize the local community against the drill and embarrass the terrorists out of business. And recently some activists are doing exactly that - warning against the "anti-nuclear terror drill" scheduled for Jan. 31 through Feb. 2 in Charleston, SC. Each time, more people learn the facts about false flag terror.

The Feb. 2 date is intriguing indeed - 2/2/2006 is all too reminiscent of the pseudo-illuminist numerology game our state terror boffins love to play. London's July 7, 2005 date works out to 7/7/7: 2005 adds up to 7. As for twice triple two, The Skull and Bones Club lodge number is 322, and Charleston is the most ancient site of the Scottish Rite in North America - as well as of the Ft. Sumter provocation, that sparked the British-inspired civil war bid to set up a troglodytic arch-fascist slave state. We will see if Bush's speechwriters offer anything other than the terror trump card in his State of the Union message on January 31.

Hitler got away with his 9/11 without too many questions, and Bush has gotten away with his Reichstag fire in spite of the tiny minority in the know. The laws and the bench are all in readiness for a police state, fastidiously legalistic, just the way the Nazi stooges did it. One little false-flag nuke attack, and there will be no looking back. No more questions asked, no more querulous Congress. The juggernaut of war and totalitarianism will have the way open for it, broad and smooth as the Autobahn. Once the Blitzkrieg is underway, they don't bother with pretexts.

They, whoever They are, the oligarchy, plutocracy, the super-rich, Rothschild, Rockefeller and Royal Family, the billionaire club, the useless elite, the purveyors of war, and their scurrying aides, have worked for a long time on their project of destroying the planet in order to possess it. Sometime during the 1890's the plot was hatched in its present, concrete form. Neutralize Eurasia: Germany, France, Russia and Japan, implant the cancer of strife in Palestine, promote the Wahhabi fundamentalists and destroy the Turkish empire, blow up the Maine and knock out Spain. Came the Great War, and 1917 the big wedding – the Balfour Declaration, US entry into the war, the installation of the Bolsheviks, the Armistice on 11/11/1918 at 11:11 a.m., the peace to end all peace at Versailles, the ruinous reparations in the twenties. Followed in the forties by the Holocaust, the most hideous covert sponsoring of atrocities of all time, with the biggest payoff - Palestine, keystone of Pangea, and a permanent talisman against all criticism. Any rival that dares challenge the nuclear supremacy of their strategic asset must be nuked.

Can we stop them now?

With such momentum matched by such massive ignorance, I don't know how, but we have to try. All we need is a miracle, and those still do happen. "They" are really cowards at heart, and perhaps the defiance of the voters of Iran and Palestine will make them blink....

( Total411.info) FEBRUARY 4, 2006 -- In wake of this website's call for a BURNT ORANGE alert for synthetic terror at Super Bowl XL, we received this note from the author of 9/11 Synthetic Terror, Webster Griffin Tarpley.

Tarpley calls for a red alert for synthetic terror in the following terms:
"The intense international intelligence warfare pattern mandates a move to red alert -- the highest vigilance -- for the upcoming Superbowl Sunday in the USA and the Turin winter Olympics, and perhaps all the way to the March 20 opening of the Iranian oil bourse, which spells the beginning of the end for six decades of world dollar hegemony.
The Iranian oil bourse opens March 20 -- this is the strategic key. The Cheneyacs want war to stop the bourse from deflating the sick US dollar.
The crumbling of European resistance has given new strength to Condi's nuclear lynch mob against Iran, with that country about to be hauled before the UN Security Council. At that point, a wider Middle East war will be immediately in sight.
The Mohammed cartoons are a transparent provocation by NATO intelligence through a Danish right wing newspaper of limited circulation. This classic US-UK provocation has had an enormous effect. Islamic circles need to realize that this is a cynical ploy designed to lead to an attack on Iran and thence to general war, and treat it that way.*
We had the latest British terror bombing in Achwaz, Iran last week (Jan. 24), killing several people.
The trial of British-backed terrorists in Iran starts in about 2 weeks.
The situation of the British invaders in southern Iraq is becoming critical.
Afghanistan is about to boil over.
The US and North Korea are trading nuclear war threats across the 38th parallel.
Russia has accused the British of flagrant spying, and there is every reason to believe this charge.
Venezuela has expelled a US military attaché as an obvious agent provocateur; now the US expels top Venezuelan diplomat.
Now the fake provocation of an alleged IED bomb near a school in Gaithersburg, Maryland in the Washington DC suburbs, impacting the personnel of the Bush administration and the federal government in general; many top officials live within a few miles of this school. There was real hysteria in the corridors of the US government this afternoon.
A new Sudden Response terror drill is taking place at Charleston. South Carolina. Will this drill go live in the way other drills went live in London last July 7?
The latest leaked Downing Street memorandum reveals Bush as proposing to send US U-2 spy planes disguised in UN colors to be shot down over Iraq to secure a pretext for the illegal aggression there. This reveals Bush in the Operation Northwoods tradition, ready to commit acts of war in the form of impeachable offenses.
Detroit is a burned-out auto city, expendable in the eyes of the finance oligarchs. Turin, Italy, home of FIAT, is another expendable burned out ex-industrial city. An action in Turin would push the Europeans to join the US in the attack on Iran.

The sinking of the Egyptian ferry in the Red Sea may well fit into this pattern, but this is not clear.
The Patriot Act has not been renewed. Top neocons face indictment and jail sentences. This is the classic moment when the neocons and their rogue network backers go back to Leo Strauss's nihilist revolution, capable of throwing humanity back into the Stone Age.

THE MOHAMMED CARTOONS:
RECRUITING EUROPE FOR BUSH’S ATTACK ON IRAN

www.waronfreedom.org/wgt/cartoon.html

Washington DC, Feb. 8 - The NATO intelligence provocation appearing in the guise of the scurrilous Mohammed cartoons published by the reactionary newspaper Jyllands Posten of Denmark, and then by a series of other European publications, has already done much to mobilize the armies, bases, and treasuries of Europe in support of the lunatic plan to the Bush- neocon clique for a nuclear sneak attack and punitive expedition against Iran over the coming weeks or months. As I warned in a red alert for synthetic terrorism issued on total411.info and other sites in the late afternoon of Feb. 3, this entire affair has been cynically orchestrated by NATO intelligence agencies to set the stage for a new world war.

In recent years, Moslem and Arab resentment for the various crimes of imperialism has been directed primarily against the United States, the United Kingdom, and Israel. What is new about the present crisis is that Denmark, Norway, France, and Germany are the main targets this time, while the usual suspects in London and Washington can remain in the background and hypocritically condemn the inflammatory cartoons. The result has been a massive degeneration of the ideological climate of Europe in favor of militant racism in the form of the Samuel Huntington War of Civilizations. The Europeans are now far more likely than previously to go to war against Iran as the tail on the Anglo-American kite. The genocidal demand that the European Union cut off all aid to the Hamas-led government of Palestine has become far more likely to succeed.

BILDERGERGERS AND NEOCONS

The evidence strongly suggests that the cartoon provocation was presented to Atlanticist oligarchs at the meeting of the Bilderberger group held from May 5 to May 8, 2005 at the Dorint Sofitel Seehotel Überfahrt in Rottach-Egern, on the shores of the Tegernsee lake in the south German federal state of Bavaria. (See http://www.bilderberg.org/2006.htm#Fountainhead for a partial attendance list) The first publication of the cartoons in Denmark followed in September 2005. This meeting was attended by the certified neocon fascist madmen Michael Ledeen, Richard Perle, and William Luti - all desperadoes haunted by the prospect of criminal indictment for their roles in the Iraq aggression, the Plame case, the Niger yellowcake forgeries, and the Lord Conrad Black embezzlement case. All three are fanatic proponents of the wider war against Iran, also in the hope of staying out of jail. Others in attendance included Dutch, Belgian, and Spanish royalty, top Eurocrats and NATO bigwigs (including NATO Secretary General Jaap Hoop de Scheffer himself) from Brussels, Rockefeller and Rothschild international bankers, and such all-purpose villains as Henry Kissinger. Another prominent participant in the Bavarian Bilderberger group was Anders Eldrep of Denmark, a Bilderberger regular over the last five years. This Anders Eldrep (or Eldrup),the chairman of DONG (Danish Oil and Natural Gas), is the husband of Merete Eldrep, the managing director of JP/Politikens Hus (JP for Jyllands-Posten), the Danish publishing firm which owns the newspaper which first published the Mohammed cartoons.

The Bilderberger group, founded after World War II by Britain’s genocidal Prince Philip and the Nazi SS Prince Bernard of the Netherlands, represents one of the key nodal points where the international finance oligarchs meet under US-UK leadership to ratify consensus on larger strategic initiatives. It was for example the Bilderberger meeting held near Stockholm in Saltsjøbaden, Sweden in the spring of 1973 which secured the final consensus for the Royal Dutch Shell plans for the October 1973 Middle East War and the attendant “Arab” oil boycott, which looted Japan and Europe and imposed global austerity to stabilize the US dollar and the Atlanticist banking system. That financiers’ staged oil boycott was the 1973 version of today’s “peak oil” hoax.

SOMETHING ROTTEN: POLITIETS EFTERRETNINGSTJENESTE

As for the repeated canard about freedom of the press, all the countries of the Nordic Council have long maintained press control through psychological warfare boards with the power to suppress and plant news stories for propaganda purposes. Sweden is the best-known example, but Denmark, a NATO member state, is no slouch either. Having directed political organizing in Denmark for a number of years, the present writer can also personally attest to the pervasive surveillance of publishing, political meetings, and public speech (as of the mid-1980s) maintained by the PET (Politiets Efterretningstjeneste), the Danish Security Intelligence Service. The PET is a sinister and stealthy organization staffed by devotees of the Danish monarchy, and its mandate is unchecked. (See http://www.pet.dk/English.aspx for a chilling self-presentation, including the ominous news that “the new Danish legislation on terrorism expands the scope of the Intelligence Service so that PET’s investigations, to a higher degree than previously, may provide the basis of actual criminal cases or other more offensive initiatives.” Author’s emphasis, WGT.) Denmark, in short, is a monarchist police state.

Denmark has been largely a British puppet state over the last two centuries - since Lord Nelson burned the Danish fleet in a sneak attack on Copenhagen which put an end to Denmark as an independent power. For the broadest political purposes, provocations coming from Denmark can be thought of as being signed by the warmonger Tony Blair personally. The current Danish neocon regime is in any case a member of Bush’s coalition of the willing engaged in the illegal occupation of Iraq.

The editor of Jyllands Posten who ordered the publication of the cartoons is Flemming Rose, who has extensive connections to Daniel Pipes, another neocon fascist madman who runs Campus Watch, a neo-McCarthyite witch-hunting organization which vilifies American professors who criticize Israel or show sympathy for the Palestinians. President Bush wanted to name Daniel Pipes to the board of the US Institute of Peace, a government-funded arm of the State Department which organizes conferences and publishes books. When the raving extremist Pipes turned out to be too widely discredited to obtain Senate confirmation for this post, Bush forced his nomination through with a summer 2003 recess appointment to a temporary term at USIP without Senate approval. Daniel Pipes is the nepotist son of Richard Pipes, a Sovietologist who was a leading figure in George H.W. Bush’s 1976 Team B, the incubator of today’s neocon clique. At the time of his recess appointment, Daniel Pipes was accused by the very moderate Arab-American Institute of “hatred and bigotry” in the context of his “bizarre obsession with all things Arab and Muslim.” (http://www.aaiusa.org/pr/release08-14-03.htm) This is the sick, racist point of view embraced by Jyllands Posten.

Flemming Rose provided details of his conversation with Daniel Pipes in a later article. They talked about the need to mobilize Europe for the war of civilizations against the Moslem world. Rose wrote: “Pipes is surprised that there isn't greater alarm in Europe over the challenge that Islam represents thanks to falling rates of fertility and a weakened sense for its own history and culture.” (Flemming Rose, “The Threat from Islamism, Jyllands-Posten, October 29, 2004) The relation of such racist arguments to the Mohammed cartoons provocation should be clear enough.

GENERAL WAR IN SIGHT

With these facts, a strong prima facie case for preconcert in the cartoon affair emerges. The convergence of the US-UK nuclear lynch mob’s dragging Iran before the United Nations Security Council in a parody of the spring 2003 US-UK proceedings against Iraq, plus the cartoons affair, means that a new general war, perhaps more like the Thirty Years’ War (1618- 1648) than futuristic scenarios of World War III, is now in sight.

EURO-TRAITORS ON THE MARCH

The impact of the cartoon affair has been to re-invigorate the already considerable racist and xenophobic forces of European society, making these tendencies more respectable in parts of the mainstream. For the moment, xenophobic reactionaries - Euro-traitors in every sense - are in power in France, Germany, Italy, Denmark, the Netherlands, and other countries of the old continent. None of these governments would dare resist Rice and Straw in a war vote at the UN. Of course, if these regimes decide to play Mussolini to Bush’s Hitler and actually send their troops to join the Anglo-Americans in war with Iran, most of them would fall, but that would come too late to avoid the looming general conflagration.

The alleged free speech defended by ranting Atlanticist hypocrites (including Cheney) thus amounts to the opposite: the defense of a society incessantly manipulated by out-of-control secret intelligence agencies with the help of the controlled corporate media - a martial law society on the road to the endless war desired by the invisible government and the neocons.

PRECONCERT ON BOTH SIDES

Danish embassies have been burned in Syria, Lebanon, and Iran. There are indications that some of these violent riots were not spontaneous, but were the work of mercenary rent-a-mobs stoked and steered by CIA, MI-6 and Mossad. In Beirut, UN officials told CNN they knew about the riot before it happened. But the embassy attacks, plus world-wide threats, protests, and economic boycotts, have gone far to convince European public opinion that the war of civilizations between the west and the Moslem world is indeed inevitable.

In 2003, Germany, France, Belgium, and other European nations rejected the Bush-Blair plan for an illegal aggressive war against Iran. Since, then, Atlanticist (US-UK) intelligence networks have been working to overthrow or subvert the leading European governments. In Germany, Chancellor Schroeder has been replaced by Mrs. Merkel, a puppet of Wall St. and the City of London. In France, the Chirac presidency, weakened by its own foolish support of last year’s European constitution, has been wholly subverted by last fall’s “Moslem” riots, which were led by old Nazi networks sheep-dipped in Islam under the guidance of Atlanticist intelligence agencies. The beneficiary has been the Anglo-Saxon Trojan horse, Sarkozy. Chirac has even issued his own nuclear threats against Iran. The days are long gone when Chirac could reject the war of civilizations and be cheered for it by Algerian students, as he was in the spring of 2003. The one valuable lesson most Europeans had learned from the twentieth century - the utter and suicidal futility of war - has been called into question by the cartoons affair.

IF A TERRORIST ATTACK OCCURS, BLAME CHENEY

Since last July, the world has known of the order from Dick Cheney to the Pentagon to prepare for the atomic bombing of Iran in the wake of a new 9/11 terrorist atrocity. Given Cheney’s manifest aggressive intent, it should also be plain that he is not occupying his time doing rain dances in the hopes of conjuring up a new terrorist attack. Cheney and his invisible government backers in the US-UK rogue network are actively preparing a new 9/11 or Gulf of Tonkin provocation with weapons of mass destruction in order to secure the pretext for their attack. Our advice to the world is accordingly: if mysterious WMD incidents occur anywhere in the world, don’t start looking for the swarthy perpetrators sporting turbans in the caves of Pushtunistan. Look instead in Dick Cheney’s office.

THE REAL CASUS BELLI: THE IRAN OIL BOURSE

Much of the real urgency of the Anglo-American attack on Iran comes not from nonexistent nuclear devices, but from the planned March 20 opening of the Iran oil bourse, the first international exchange since 1945 where buyers and sellers of oil can conduct their oil transactions using a currency other than the US dollar - in this case, the euro. The Iran oil bourse threatens the number one pillar of US-UK world domination - the global hegemony of the dollar, as anchored in the dollar’s central role in oil and other raw materials transactions. With the Iranian oil bourse, as much as $1 trillion of central bank reserves may flee the US greenback into the euro, the yen, and other currencies. The concomitant exodus of hot money from Wall Street would then puncture the US stock bubble, the US housing bubble, and the US bubble economy generally, leading to a collapse of the dollar in international exchange and the dumping of hundreds of billions of dollars in US treasury bonds now in the hands of the Chinese and Japanese. The transition from today’s outmoded and obsolete dollar-based system to a dollar-euro-yen system of fixed parities, gold settlement, and high-technology exports to the developing sector could be easily handled by peaceful negotiations, but this is exactly what the neocons are determined to prevent. Ironically, the neocon obsession for general war to preserve dollar dominance, by almost guaranteeing the closure of the straits of Hormuz, will lead to an even more catastrophic dollar collapse and world depression than the peaceful Iranian oil bourse ever could. The neocons, in other words, are playing a losing hand. Only fools would join them.

BEWARE THE IDES OF MARCH

When might the new hostilities begin? General Sharon, before he was incapacitated, had told the Israeli Defense Force to be ready to strike Iran in March. The former US Iraq weapons inspector Scott Ritter says that the attack order has already been given. Vladimir Zhirinovsky, the maverick Russian politician, thinks that the most likely date is March 28, coincident with the Israeli elections. Zhirinovsky has longed served as an auxiliary to Russian President Putin, and his estimate may benefit from the insights of the Russian special services. Whenever the attack comes, it is clear that the NATO logistics and manpower infrastructure - the German railways, the French air force and navy, the Italian ports and air bases - will play a vital role. Without these, the US could hardly operate in the Middle East at all. Today, the US neocons may be offering occupation rights in various secondary target countries, like Syria, to tempt countries like France or Italy into joining the war. When Hitler attacked the USSR in June 1941, he was joined by troops from Italy, Romania, Hungary, Finland, Spain, and other European states. These auxiliaries had received promises of their own, but they fared poorly. The parallel is suggestive for the path some Europeans wish to tread today.

RATTLING THE CAGES OF OFFICIAL WASHINGTON

Last Wednesday, a Home Depot in the Washington DC suburb of Gaithersburg, Maryland was evacuated because of suspicious package emitting a strange smell, which turned out to be a harmless videotape recorder. Last Friday, the Rachel Carson Elementary School in the same community, which is part of the region where many federal officials and bureaucrats live and have their families, was evacuated because of another suspicious package which a local official claimed looked like an Improvised Explosive Device or Iraq-style roadside bomb. It was “something like you might see in a war zone,” said the spokesman of the Gaithersburg fire department said to the radio and television that afternoon. The school is typically attended by the children of federal employees. But the “IED” also turned out to be a big nothing. Early this evening, the Russell Senate Office Building was evacuated because of a nerve gas alert that also proved to be groundless, a complete false alarm. But a dozen senators had to flee. This escalating pattern of incidents likely to provoke hysteria among US government officials betrays the intent of the invisible government to overload the circuits and facilitate the stampeding of this government into a wider war full of incalculable danger.

MOSLEMS: DO NOT ACCEPT PROVOCATIONS

Our advice to the Moslem world: DO NOT FALL FOR PROVOCATIONS. From Count Thurn’s 1618 defenestration of Prague to Bismarck’s Ems telegram in 1870, big wars have often grown out of staged provocations. For years former Prime Minister Dr. Mahatir Mohammed of Malaysia, an astute Moslem observer who knows how the Atlanticists operate, has been telling his co-religionists that the greatest vulnerability of the oppressors is located in the weakness of the US dollar. Mahatir’s argument has long been that it is time to stop complaining and dump the dollar. The fall of the dollar will entail the fall of the International Monetary Fund and of Wolfowitz’s World Bank, the greatest engines of global oppression. Those who burn the embassies of European countries or attack their citizens risk becoming dupes serving as recruiting sergeants for the NATO armies and air forces that are about to strike Iran, currently the leading Moslem state, plus Syria and others. It is time to break ideological profile, and respond unpredictably on the international monetary front, where the chances for success are the greatest.

REFUTE THE BLOOD LIBEL OF 9/11

In terms of the battle of ideas, the other great task for the Moslem world and for persons of good will everywhere is to contribute to the utmost to the dismantling and discrediting of the ultimate blood libel against Islam, the fantastic Atlanticist myth surrounding the events of September 11, 2001. The international 9/11 truth movement has shown how rogue networks inside the Pentagon and CIA organized those events. Since the basis of every attack on Islam is 9/11, it is incumbent on Moslems to join in refuting the myth. This will have the additional effect of eroding Bush’s fanatical political base, and preparing his fall.

WORLD PEACE

In my address to the Inter-Religious Conference in Khartoum, Sudan in October 1994, I pleaded for a platform of ecumenical and irenic cooperation among the world’s great faiths based in the comprehensive scientific, technological, and economic development of all nations. This is the call of Christianity, with its imperative of charity (agape) and faith expressed through good works, as in the second great commandment: love your neighbor. This is the call of the doctrine of social solidarity in Islam. This is the call of Confucian benevolence and the related need for rulers to promote prosperity and education. These are the ideas reflected in similar impulses prominent in Buddhism, Judaism, and other faiths. These are ideas readily accessible to persons of good will whose outlook is purely secular, whatever their political persuasion. Humanity must act now to neutralize war provocations, and thus to prevent the horrors of war itself.
