OIL AND NATURAL GAS who has it

The major overriding reality is that most of the world's resources are on the continent of Eurasia.

It is also worth noting that 70% of the resources are in the Muslin world and that there is little doubt that part of the wealth is fueling the current global religious confrontations.

When natural gas is included Russia is number one. This gives them a strangle hold for their natural gas on their former Soviets and on Europe to the West.

They are also tieing in to China and Japan in the east with oil pipelines. It is inherent this trade will finance the purchase of Russian weapons.

Saudi Arabia will continue as the world largest producer of oil. The huge pools of capital with continue to purchase assets in the west and finance the Wahabi muslins with their mischief world wide including Iraq.

Iran at No. 3 is a force that cannot be ignored. Much to the disapproval of the U.S. they are going ahead tieing in their natural gas by pipelines to India and Pakistan. China is also coming forward with large financing in oil. (finaced by their trade surplus dollars with U.S.)

Some of Iran's wealth is used to finance Hamis and other terrorism in Iraq and elsewhere.

The biggest building boom in the world is now in the United Arab Republic with one third of the world's building cranes in action. It is stunning to realize that this is going on at a time when the other end of the Gulf Iraq is in the throws of near civil war.

Iraq has the resources to triple production but is crippled by the current internal turn oil and slaughter. Sober up and they could rival prosperity of the UAR.

Production in the United States peaked in the 1970's. It are now being crippled by their addiction to oil over half of which they import.

EXTINCTION Tigers Going Going Gone?

In the last 500,000,000 years there has been five major extinction when most of its life forms died out.

In the last 10,000 years we humans have been systematically killing off animals in numbers greater than our needs beginning with the mammoths and herd of horses and buffalo.

The Roman killed millions in sport and games.

Over the last 100 years the tiger has become a rare animal.

There is every indication that we are in the Sixth Extinction and this time around it may include us.

The proposed route of the pipeline from central Russia to the Pacific took it within 800 metres of Lake Baikal.

The 2,500 deep lake is the largest body of fresh water in the world. An oil spill near the lake could be a disaster.

To advoid the risk President Putin has decreed that the route be moved40 kilometers north.

The forces of good are to prevail.

A great argument is raging through the halls of learning between the believers in intelligent design and those who accept evolution.

We live in an ordered universe. If it was not so we would not be here.

Some would say this is because of intelligent design. If this is so is evolution part of the design?

ARMAGEDDON

This is the prophesy that there will come a time in the Middle East when there will be a final battle between the forces of good (The Christians) and the forces of evil will be defeated.

There will be a second coming of Christ. and the good and the newly converted will go one to everlasting peace.

Here in we take the view that there is an on going battle in each of us between good and evil. There could be a day of reckonings coming. But that the good may not win.

OIL CONSUMPTION

Homo Sapiens has been around for about 100,000 years.

He has been a consumer of oil for about a hundred years for much of his energy and heat.

We are probably near the peak of production and over the next few decades will need to find alternative sources.

The fear is that this fresh water ontop of the salt will slow down the global convevor belt
and the Gulf Stream perhaps having Europe cool down.
