Richard Cheney's covert Energy Committee coveted the Caspian Sea in the National Energy Policy. The plans for exploitation of the region begins with Chapter Eight, something about "Enhancing National Energy Security/Strenghtening Global Alliances. NOT. (page down to the bottom, 980 KB). I am so tired of writing about this junk you have no idea. Bush and Cheney need to be impeached.
How do U.S. contractors legally do business there?
...Yet, in January, Halliburton won a contract to drill at a huge Iranian gas field called Pars, which an Iranian government spokesman said "served the interests" of Iran....
...Halliburton says the operation — videotaped by NBC News — is entirely legal. It's run by a subsidiary called "Halliburton Products and Services Limited," based outside the U.S. In fact, the law allows foreign subsidiaries of U.S. corporations to do business in Iran under strict conditions....
...Still, Halliburton stands out because its operations in Iran are now under a federal criminal investigation. Government sources say the focus is on whether the company set out to illegally evade the sanctions imposed ten years ago....
THE INVASION into Iraq was for oil and the chaos that exists there today is due to an illegal war declared by liars in the Executive Branch. An invasion into Iran would be met with Russian backed resistance as Russia has no plans of fighting a war on it's own soil. Russia has already supplied Iran with missiles to deter any attack already planned by Bush, Cheney and Halliburton.
It was just a matter of time before this would occur and now with the country turning to Democrats to rid the USA of the burden of corruption, the Oval Office is all about Iran and an invasion to secure the country for it's oil and gas.
The Bush Administration has radicalized most countries around the globe and alienated most of it's allies. The USA military is depleted and unable to defend itself in Iraq today. We have recently witnessed the increased number of deaths of American soldiers exceeding that of the Iraqi forces. The USA is defeated in Iraq and it's time to leave.
The confrontation of Iran and Russia is based in the same corruption as the invasion into Iraq.
