If you think the geopolitical landscape is a total mess at the moment, you won't get too many objections from me. Last century there was a war over the Falklands between Argentina and Britain, and there remain background tensions that we don't hear much about. It may surprise people to learn that two nations went to war over an island with about 3000 British Citizens living on it, but it will make more sense one you discover how near Argentina they are, and how near to Antarctica too.
The penny will drop when you are reminded that the international treaty preventing a nation using its claims being prospected in antarctica comes to an end in 2048, and the Argentinian (now British) claim sits on enough oil to make a nation the next Saudi Arabia.
Furthermore, over the last 25 years most global volatility has instead been as a result of about ten key factors.
Five of these could have a case made as five variations on one theme:
Strategic oil and gas reserves/pipelines
Tension between Russia and the West/NATO.
The Rise of BRICS and the future of the USD as reserve currency.
Petrodollar hegemony. With regard to the above, the use of USD international trade is driving up foreign USD demand & particularly the energy sector since oil is by far the largest traded commodity.
Russia and China have moved to trading in local currencies and look to expand this, particularly in the long term with new BRICS member Saudi Arabia. (The Saudi's are already combining their OPEC weight with Russia for strategic expediency and could conceivably corner the market)
So, when I come across a story that one could easily scroll past if not paying attention, but on second glance contains all the ingredients above (potentially), I usually like to make a note or diarize it for assimilation over. This blog is that diary, so have a read and file it somewhere in your mind, its not likely to be all over the headlines.
Let's just say that if Putin requires leverage in the event that the British and EU move forward with seizing Russian assets held in various Western financial institutions, it would appear that options are presenting themselves to offset all those billions.
*NB I do not subscribed to either of these "facts" neither do think petroleum or any hydrocarbons are "fossil fuels". Those are irrelevant, the point is to highlight that the consensus science climate change agenda is easily exposed as nonsense even if only using consensus science itself. The bonus is that it won't get you censored (the downside is its usually wrong)
ExxonMobil is the world's largest oil corporation. It's the merged oil corporation of two of the thirty-four oil corporations that were broken up from the massive Rockefeller corporation, Standard Oil, in 1911. And, the Rockefellers retained large and small pieces of all of those oil corporations, including Exxon, Mobil, Chevron, AMOCO, Sunoco, Marathon, etc. John D Rockefeller is known to have been happier after the monopoly was broken up because he is thought to have done even better afterwards. At least this is what he has stated.
Interestingly, the main source of the criticism on Exxon's climate change policy is the Rockefeller Foundation who have strategically divested from oil in name only for PR purposes, but who still run the global Petrodollar war machine with other powerful cabal members from the globalist viper's nest centred around the United States Department of State. It appears that they are once more creating controversy in order to whip up political fervour in the voters in their usual "Divide and Rule" manner. The Rockefellers and their ilk have a long history of playing on both sides of every issue. If you have any doubt as to the scale and influence of the globalist order in these affairs, then consult this detailed breakdown of who they are and how they operate.
Let us not forget that it was The Rockefellers, after all, that supplied Hitler's Germany with oil from Venezuela, during WWII, through Vichy France. Legally. Hitler's invasion of Poland and France rolled forth on Rockefeller fuel in Ford trucks. US, British, and German bankers and industrialists invested in German industry after the First World War and financed the rise of Hitler, since 1925.
Prescott Bush's bank, UBC, in New York, bought Hitler his party headquarters. Bush lost his directorship at UBC for trading with the enemy, in 1942. But Bush continued to manufacture the gas that killed millions of Jews and other people, in Germany. The Rockefellers, Prescott Bush, GE, and IBM helped to build, run, and supply Auschwitz. They used concentration camp labour in their industry in Germany and Poland.
The Bushes and Rockefellers financed and advised every US President since WWII, besides Kennedy and Trump. They financed Hitler and then they financed Eisenhower, in 1952. Ike's running mate, Richard Nixon, had been Prescott Bush's man in Congress since WWII. Bush mentored Nixon so closely in 1952 that they dressed identically.
The Rockefellers have been controlling our perception of oil from the outset. Prepare to fall off your chair..
The Rockefeller banks, Chase and Citi, and the Rothschilds Bank of America, and also Wells Fargo, are the Big Four Banks. They financed both Obama and McCain,back in 2008. They financed both Hillary and Jeb Bush, in 2016. Obama's adviser on wars in eight nations, to control the flow of all of the world's oil, was Zbigniew Brzezinski, who was David Rockefeller's right-hand man, and who used the CIA to arm Muslim extremists in the Middle East, since the Carter administration.
The Big Four Banks control US foreign policy (wars) by financing the campaigns of Presidents and most members of Congress, Democrat or moderate Republican. The religious right Tea Party politicians are financed by the Koch brothers, who are Rockefeller Establishment splitters.
The Globalization of Banking
The globalization of big oil, banking and media preceded all the other mergers and acquisitions or share buybacks we see so prominently today. All three are pivotal in the climate change movement. On the face of that alone if one's suspicions are not already aroused one should never seek a career as a private investigator, detective or investigative journalist of any sort because one would not appear to have the intuition for it.
The Big Four Banks orchestrate their influence over most members of Congress, the corporate news media, and the Bush/Rockefeller created and run CIA, through their private organization, the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR).
We Should be very wary of the lingo and jargon the think tanks have already prepared for us going forward. None of it is sincere and all of it is designed with a political goal in mind. The Rockefeller Establishment bankers have made defacto admissions to using the climate change issue to whip up fervour among voters (to get out the vote for Democrats and moderate Republicans who will support their wars for control of the flow of all of the oil in the world.) They have used the issues of abortion and gun control for the same purpose, for decades, even though nothing much ever changes on those issues. Because, it would require a Supreme Court ruling to change Roe v Wade, and a Constitutional Convention to change the Second Amendment.
We are being played by the Rockefeller Establishment, through their media, to get us riled up about what Exxon said about climate change, about what Trump said or about what your mother-in-law's aunt said even as they wage wars for control of all of the oil in the world. Do you really want the people who are stockpiling the worlds nuclear arsenal, big banking and big oil and their science administration shills (who beg for grant funding like good dogs barking for their biscuits) guiding your environmental senses? Remember, nothing happens by accident and all the apparently spontaneous wars were pre-planned years, this is well established.
Most importantly these people will wage war or destroy any country that interferes with the petrodollar system, let alone with fossil fuels. You need to be naive to the point of stupidity if you really think they have any notion of quitting fossil fuels.

All of the carbon dioxide that we pump into the atmosphere came from the atmosphere to make fossil fuels through photosynthesis, in the first place. Millions of years ago carbon dioxide levels were seven times higher than they are now, such as in the Jurassic and Cretacious
(and have been much higher than that even) and both animal and plant life on Earth began to thrive. Even Coral reefs had major ups and downs while carbon dioxide levels were much higher than now. For a comprehensive collection of resources on every aspect of climate change imaginable, I have put together this database hub.
A real "get a grip on reality" scenario for climate enthusiasts is that polar ice area returns to normal at each pole, during the winter months, because the poles are in 24/7 darkness for most of their respective winters. This shows the tremendous power of solar irradiance on polar ice area and melting glaciers. 2014 was a peak high for Antarctic polar ice area. In short, you cannot trust the MSM on the issue of Climate Change, you only need to take a look at this appalling record they have on the subject to realise that.
Yeah, so it's the Rockefellers who are behind Exxon plus the criticism of Exxon's climate change policy.
Along with them, you will find the globalist institutions they crafted like the EU, The UN, The IPCC or any other arch globalist body involved with the Paris Climate Accord. Why do they do this? Because they are the puppet masters, and they control all of the strings to all of us peasants via their puppets, our leaders. And we appear to like it that way, being the peasant stock that we are, we really like it that way, and we believe whatever the Rockefellers and Rothschilds tell their corporate news media outlets as well as what the BBC say, on climate change, Russian collusion, their ISIS and al Qaeda fighters, or their fake progressive candidates, like Bernie Sanders. Perhaps then this arrangement is all we deserve, along with the financial misery that comes with it. I for one will not accept it, no matter how much I am slut-shamed by the rest of the peasants.
For those of you thinking Donald Trump plays 4-D chess and is always a step ahead of everyone, allow me to paint a different picture of a draft doger obsessed by the military , who would have squandered the millions his daddy left him if not for for his powerful connections. Connections who are at war with other powerful people. I don't mean Neocons and neoliberals, Neocons fleed the GOP and Joined the Neolibs at the Democratic Party when word on the street was Hillary Clinton was meant to win the election. Thats one ofvthe reasons Trump got so much heat, but with Neocons Bolton and Pompeo handling him now things should start gettingba little easier as long as he continues foreign coups.
High up Dems and GOP are more than ever lately two sides of the same coin on issues of monetary and foreign policy, I don't mean them when I say powerful groups are at war, but rather entrenched deep state apparatus from the permanent security state zionist faction seeking to enforce US hegemony and the old money banking dynasties who have hedged with China and by all indications are at some point seeking to cast aside the USD once the Petrodoller is no longer defendable and introduce the IMFs SDR. But that comes much later. First the backstory.
In The 1950's CIA director Allan Dulles along with David Rockerfeller established a front company for laundering CIA and Mossad black ops money. Benignly named the Mary Carter Paint Company. Due to the amounts of money involved and so as not to blow their cover, they changed their name to Resorts International in 1963. That way they were positioning themselves under the capable leadership of CIA asset David Crosby (with the help of mob connections) for the casino trade in Atlantic City, the premier model for money laundering of off buget operations as developed by mafia. In 1987 Crosby died and RI's chairman, Mayer Lansky (a known Mossad asset) sought legitimate investment to replace Crosby's and found an up and coming property tycoon called Donald Trump, notorious for wanting a reputation and mob connections Trump bought up Crosby's controlling interest in Resorts International. https://mobile.nytimes.com/1987/03/10/business/trump-buys-73-stake-in-resorts-for-79-million.html
Trump followed strictly conditionalities of RI's chief financiers Tibor Rosenbaum and Baron Edmond De Rothschild by allowing the CIA to continue certain irregular financial practices and would later be rewarded for this. Trump was almost ruined and in massive debt after the 80's real estate crash shortly thereafter, at which time he came to the attention of Wilbur Ross of Rothschild Incorporated. http://www.latimes.com/politics/la-na-pol-wilbur-ross-commerce-20161208-story.html
Trump speaks at length about these affairs in his book "The Art Of The Deal" and appears to relish these notorious connections and fancies himself some sort of debt king, rather than being ashamed of selling his soul to the devil.
And Trump would give him the position key for making policy changes that would later be required in the business, trade and energy sectors by the Rothschild shadow government now that they were in full control after orchestrating a strategic divestment of the Rockerfeller clan from oil to better synch aligned monoplies and establish Genie Energy, which by clever shareholder arrangement is Israeli owned. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/donald-trump-names-wilbur-ross-commerce-secretary/
This documentary by James Corbett of Corbett Report, the follow up to "How Big Oil Conquered the World" is the best I've ever seen at unpacking the globalist interests and history behind our establishment and institutions. Almost nobody talks about these things. It expands on the issues I touched on in this post :
Reports in the leading leading Nigerian newspaper, The Vanguard, indicated that Washington is not cooperating in the war against Boko Haram but is actually sabotaging the government. The U.S. has refused to provide arms to Nigeria, which is reprehensable when you consider how many rebels they armed who ended up being branded terrorists BY WASHINGTON!
Very odd behavior indeed for a nation known to have directly armed, trained and funded Al Qaeda
Hillary discusses how the US created Al Qaeda
armed Sadam
and had both direct and indirect involvement in the arming of ISIS when it armed and supported them them as their former incarnation as "Rebels fighting Assads government" and in Libya and similarly with Boko Haram indirect action facilitated weapons finding their way into terrorist hands.
Interesting indeed, especially when you consider all US military action this century has had a puffed up terrorism pretext of some form.
After the "Save our Girls" incident Washington pledged in 2014 to enhance its aerial surveillance of Boko Haram areas of operation in the northeast and provide information about their movements and capabilities to the Jonathan government.
However, military sources in Nigeria say that the U.S. intelligence agencies have collected data on Boko Haram but will not share it with Abuja
So far no plans have been made to offer the much hated U.S. drone execution services against Boko Haram, like the US uses to murder innocents, bystanders and whistleblowers all over the world under the pretense that they are terrorists who are far too dangerous to tell us about (due to reasons of National Security). You would think by their own standards Boko Haram would be in the league of the other 5000 dead drone strike victims they are "protecting us from"
In Nigeria there is no direct evidence of US meddling by hiring insurgents or using covert ops like their special forces or Blackwater. There is plenty evidence of mischeif in Syria, Libya, Yemen, Ukraine and Iraq. although, once again we have an oil rich nation where a shadowy terrorist threat emerges suddenly, reported U.S. facilitation of the terrorists rise to prominence, and the US takes a path of action of most possible resistance to the incumbent regime.
I dont think that its alarmist to keep careful watch considering the appaling globalisation activity at the moment in Washington. We have 4 of the 5 warning signs of pretext to U.S. military action, I think its safe to say Nigeria and Nigerians should be vigilant.
