I don't think the 2nd iraq war was triggered by them trading oil in euros per-se, it may have been a consideration but I think it happened because at the time the Bush admin was full of very pro Israel neocons who also had links to the military industrial complex, many of whom had been pushing for attacking Iraq since the end of the 1st gulf war, people like Paul Wolfowitz, Richard Perle, Doug Feith, David Wormser etc had even written a policy paper (the clean break strategy) for netenyahu in the 90s which laid out a plan for regime change in places like iraq and called for proxy wars to be waged in countries like Syria, 9/11 gave them the opportunity to use the war on terror as a cover for this regime change plan. For Bush himself the war was about his presidency and legacy, he wanted to be seen as a "war president" because he calculated that war presidents are always looked back on fondly, he also thought it would help him win a 2nd term because he knew Americans wouldn't vote out a sitting president at a time of war. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Clean_Break:_A_New_Strategy_for_Securing_the_Realm

Only a matter of time before the US (and inevitably) the UK governments collapse; when it comes it will make 2008 look like having your pocket money stopped for a week. fiat currencies, usury - all recipes for disaster.
The extra firearms police will conveniently come in handy.
This is what people should really fear, not some random loon with a beard & a big knife

It's interesting how Gaddafi was in the process of setting up a rival global currency when it suddenly became a matter of humanitarian urgency to blow the fuck out of Libya. Also interesting how when Dominique Strauss-Khan touted a similar idea, he was smeared by an FBI plant. Strange business, the dollar

I just hope we don't get a rehash of the 1980's Cold War and nuclear panic I grew up with for my kids. Even so, better start prepping! Made some compost bins tody out of used tonne bulk bags.....nice
