Middle East, Obama, and oil

Obama set this up to raise the price of oil.
Obama set this up as an "October Surprise."
Obama set this up to restrict free speech.

We all know the questions about the riots all over the Middle East, riots that are still going on. Was the Libyan incident planned? Did it, or any of the riots, spring up out of the blue? Does it really come back to that silly, over-the-top polemical film? (Actually, it's a trailer. Nobody seems to have seen the full-length film.)

But--well, in the immortal words of a detective who wore a stained, rumpled raincoat and drove an oil-burning Peugeot, there's something about this case that some of us can't shake loose of (like the author of the linked article).

Did Obama gin this up as an October surprise? Sorry--doesn't fit. This whole thing is making him look stupid and clumsy. He wouldn't risk that for re-election.

But suppose he had an ideological reason?

Maybe he quietly set things up for the whole Middle East to blow up in riots. (That statement by Ambassador Patterson did not help.) And why would he do that?

To raise the price of oil.

So that maybe his alternative-energy cronies might at last get a "return on investment."

Or maybe just to get people to use anything other than oil or coal.

Can a President be that obsessed-and-compelled? You tell me.

    Obama is SCARY



    Riles against wall street, Inspires OWS, then praises it. At the same time he brags about the only part of the economy that he policy has helped ins Wall street. Can anyone explain thiis.



    Obama riles and demonized oil. Goes to Egypt inspires the Arab spring, so muslims go wild. In Libya Obama says we have to help. in Syria he says ah, I have to get to the tonight show. the only difference, Libya has oil. cannot understand this either.



    Obama says a u-tube video incited the peace loving muslim, yet he allowed and is allowing a movie be made of how hard it was for him to kill bin laden. Hello, he voted present all the time in the state senate. anyway, seems it was a 9-11 plan and many a signs and shouts were there are millions of bin ladens, I am sure his movie will settle down the radical islamist, No this makes no sense to me either. Would he meet with other world leaders? no, he has a spot on the letterman show. WTF?????????????????



    And why would his appointed sec. of state allow our embassy in Libya to have only 3 marines. especially since they had the information, Hilary was right, don't want Obama answering the 3 am call, now nor should she

    It's one of the things desperate Zionist MSM propaganda spins to get Americans to ruin themselves in a war against Iran or have Romney elected who has assured Israel he will ruin the world economy and start WW3 for them if necessary.

    It´s quite simple.

    Even a propagandist like O´Reilly knows oil will go to $200 and kill the world economy if America starts WW3 for the Israhell.

    How about if we just use Tesla's ideas, so we can get away from the need for oil. Check out Tesla Motors new ride, 300 miles between recharge's. Hell there are cars that run on Air in India. Either of these designs could be mass produced for the general public here in America if it wasn't for the greed from oil Profits $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ There are so many easy answers to fix humanities issues, But few answers to stop the downfall's from greed.

    Good one.

    Here's another invention..

    thomas edison
    "If the Nation can issue a dollar bond it can issue a dollar bill.
    The element that makes the bond good makes the bill good also. The
    difference between the bond and the bill is that the bond lets the
    money broker collect twice the amount of the bond and an additional 20%.
    Whereas the currency, the honest sort provided by the Constitution pays
    nobody but those who contribute in some useful way. It is absurd to say
    our Country can issue bonds and cannot issue currency. Both are promises
    to pay, but one fattens the usurer and the other helps the People."
    - Thomas Edison

    The CIA is all over the globe, stirring up trouble and starting wars, many of which we end up getting involved with. They don't even care who wins, as long as they can keep selling weapons. Many of those come back to haunt our troops and ambassadors.

    This could be the setup for the October Surprise. (Only as a thought not an accusation)

    Plan for the middle east to go crazy with riots in mid Sept. Let the tension build and the stories in the so called news get everyone afraid of what could happen. Then in October Obama addresses the middle east and says enough is enough you must stop now, and they stop. Now it could be said that Obama is the greatest diplomat ever because he single stopped the riots and uprisings without military force or putting people in harms way.

    It's just a thought.... just saying.

    It's all part of the overall plan to bring America to it's knees. This is his plan and it's working as his followers are too blind to see it and too stubborn to see the movie Obama 2016. That movie would open anyone's eyes if they would just go see it !

    The answer to this question cannot be known with certainty, except by those who perpetrated or incited the attacks. Just a guess, but since the film was produced about three months ago, and the attacks occurred on the 9/11 anniversary, they were probably premeditated. The film just turned out to be a lucky pretext for the attackers to blame.

    If Qatar were to be Nuked, all this would come to a grinding halt. Qatar is Operations Central for Spookville in the Middle East. The 0 brought in all the foreigners for the Arab Spring, most notably Libya. Qatar Special Forces (Blackwater) were the first boots on the ground, they brought in Al Qaeda (first used in Yugoslavia), the Ambassador was their paymaster or asset handler. He was set up from our side or our side through Saudi Arabia and Qatar. A Gulf of Tonkin Incident.

    I know that most of this sounds unrelated, but it is the heart of the mater. The things we see now are just appetizers or condiments. The entrée on the menu was created years ago and is the Brzezinski doctrine, The Grand Chessboard. Create mayhem and chaos in the Muslim world, surrounding China and Russia. Of all of Chinese imported oil nearly 60% goes through the Straight of Hormuz. A war with Iran would shut China down. China knows it and is ready for war in the South China sea, for oil. Russia is a target also, Al Qaeda "freedom fighters" are being infiltrated into the Muslim provinces. 30% of Russia is Muslim. They have too many Stans, and new springs of their own.

    As for the October Surprize, I think the attack on the Consulate will morph into the Iran War. The fingers will soon point to the next stage. We've allready been told that Iran has Quds cells everywhere.

    'US President Barack Obama on Tuesday said the United States will "do what we must" to prevent Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon and in the same speech at the United Nations accused Tehran of helping to keep a dictatorship in power in Syria.'

    "President Obama is being more aggressive on Iran and the Iranians testing missiles brings the geopolitical premium back in the market,"

    = oil up, because war is more likely.

    Distraction and the hopes of a surprise resolution to show what a good leader he is? This gets his economic failures, the whole "Green" give away and redistribution of wealth stuff out of sight and mind. Then he Hopes to have his Brothers In Muslimhood sit down with him and find a resolution just days before the polls open. Coming out looking like hero. Shades of Peanut Carter, I'd say.

    Actually I don't know. I certainly wouldn't be shocked if he did some instigating but I can't say for sure either way. I do know that only a fool would believe that stupid you tube video made in June by an Egyptian is the reason for the planned 9/11/12 attacks.

    Obama has the tactical savvy of a muslim camel spider. In almost 4 years as president he is more concerned with fund raising and being the next american idol star. He does not have the skill or courage to coordinate an international challenge a described here.
