Currency Warfare: ''What are the Real Targets of the E.U. Oil Embargo against Iran?''

a must read.....


"The end of Iranian oil exports to the European Union and the decline of the euro will directly benefit the United States and the American dollar. What the European Union is doing is merely weaken itself and giving the American dollar the upper hand in its currency rivalry against the euro. Moreover, should the euro collapse, the American dollar will quickly fill much of the void. Despite the fact that Russia will benefit from higher oil prices and greater leverage over E.U. energy security as a supplier, the Kremlin has also warned the European Union that it is working against its own interests and subordinating itself to Washington.


The war in Libya had many purposes. These purposes were as follows: (1) preventing African unity; (2) driving China out of Africa; (3) strategically controlling important energy reserves; and (4) guarding oil supplies in the scenario of any American-led conflicts against Syria and Iran."
