There is something different in the air It has been a long time with many disappointments...true However there is clearly a positive trend developing under the leadership of Abadi When ISIS first sliced through Iraq a few months back now I, like nearly everyone else thought ...well there's the final nail in the coffin of the RV ... Then this thought flashed through my mind..."What if the very thing that looks like it will destroy the RV is the very thing to make it happen" I believe that has and is occurring...It caused and end to an old divisive government the beginning of a new one that is more inclusive, one that is actually doing what needs to be done for everyone for self protection and for progress in every dimension....Waiting semi-patiently for a suddenly...as Lady Graces Daddy says

This article by Walid explains some of the convoluted dynamics in the region...and perhaps why this has been such a twisted ride shoebat.com/2014/12/12/oil-war-begun-will-eventually-lead-doom-mecca-worship-antichrist/

What if: The Saudis are driving down the price of oil to prop up the value of the $ ... because they are married to the oil dollar ... the Iraqi Gov. is now onboard with the Plan to tie their oil to the Dollar. The IMF etc has been pressuring Russia to fall in line with their version of the NWO financial control...Russia and China and ...the BRICS do not want to be told what to do any more by the old world $ brokers who control the NWO...therefore they are made to look like the bad guys in Ukraine etc... IMF was going to give more control to them and to hold that off the US stalls everything...so that Iraq can come online with another economic engine pumping out Oil dollars....Further weakening BRICS's hand and ....stacking the odds on a RV for the Dinar in the "Coming Days" LOL Must have been that late night Pizza .. Pepto time

Let me know if the others don't come through

Energy Markets Are On The Brink Of Crisis Thursday, 19 June 2014 04:17 Brandon Smith The multitudes of people, especially Americans, who view U.S. government activity in a negative light often make the mistake of attributing all corruption to some covert battle for global oil fields. In fact, the average leftist seems to believe that everything the establishment does somehow revolves around oil. This is a very simplistic and naïve view. Modern wars are rarely, if ever, fought over resources, despite what the mainstream gatekeepers might tell you. If a powerful nation wants oil, for instance, it lines the right pocketbooks, intimidates the right individuals, blackmails the right officials or swindles the right politicians. It has no need to go to war when politicians and nations are so easily bought. Modern wars, rather, are fought in order to affect psychological change within a particular country or population. Wars today are fought to cover up corrupt deals and create desperation. Oil is used as an all-encompassing excuse for war, but it is never the true cause of war. In reality, oil demand has become static and is even falling in many parts of the world, while new oil and gas-producing fields are discovered on a yearly basis. Petroleum is not a rare resource — at least, not at the present. And the propaganda surrounding the “peak oil” Armageddon scenario is pure nonsense. Oil prices, unfortunately, do not rise and fall according to supply - instead they rise and fall according to market tensions and, most importantly, the value and perceived safety of the U.S. dollar. Supply and demand have little to do with commodity values in our age of fiat manipulation and false investor perception. That said, certain political and regional events are currently in motion that could, in fact, change investor perception to the negative, and convince the world of a false fear of reduced supply. While supply is more than ample, the expectation of continued supply can be jilted, shocking commodities markets into running for the hills or rushing into mass speculation, generally resulting in a sharp spike in prices. A very real danger within energy markets is the undeniable threat that the U.S. dollar may soon lose its petrodollar status and, thus, Americans may lose the advantage of relatively low gas prices they have come to expect. That is to say, the coming market crisis will have far more to do with the health of the dollar than the readiness of supply. In the span of only a few years, as the derivatives crisis took hold and the fed began its relentless bailout regime, petroleum costs have doubled. It wasn’t that long ago that someone could fill his vehicle's tank with a $20 bill. Those days are long gone, and they are not coming back. The expectation has always been that prices would recede as the overall economy began to heal. Of course, our economy will not be healed until it is allowed to crash, as it naturally should crash. And as it crashes, because of our currency's unique place in history, the price of oil will continue to climb. The petrodollar has always been seen as invincible — a common denominator, a mathematical constant. This is a delusion propagated by a lack of knowledge and common sense amongst establishment economists. As I have covered in great detail in numerous articles, the U.S. dollar’s world reserve status is nearing extinction. Multiple major economies now trade bilaterally without the use of the dollar; and with foreign conflicts on the rise, this trend is going to become the norm. In the past week alone, Putin adviser Sergey Glazyev recommended to the Kremlin that a coalition of nations be formed to end the dollar's reserve status and initiate a form of economic warfare to stop "U.S. aggression". Of course, anyone familiar with the escapades of international banking cartels knows that it is the money elite that dictate U.S. aggression, just as they dictate the policy initiatives of Russia. I would note that there is only ONE currency exchange structure that could be used at this time to shift global forex reserves away from the dollar system, and that is the IMF's Special Drawing Rights. The argument has always been that the IMF is a U.S. controlled institution, however, this is a faulty assumption. The IMF is a GLOBAL BANKER controlled institution, a front organization for the Bank of International Settlements, which is why the recent refusal by the U.S. Congress to vote on new capital allocations for the IMF has resulted in the world's central bank threatening to remove U.S. veto power. Globalists have no loyalty to any single nation, and the reality is, the fall of the dollar actually benefits these financiers in the long term. Russia’s historic oil and gas deal with China, just signed weeks ago, removes the dollar as the petroleum reserve currency. Russia’s largest gas company, Gazprom, has all but excluded the dollar in all transactions with foreign nations. In fact, nine out of 10 of Gazprom’s foreign clients were more than happy to buy their products without using dollars. This fact cripples the arguments of dollar cheerleaders who have always claimed that even if Russia broke from the dollar, no one else would go along. Gazprom and the Russian government have followed through with their threats to cut off gas pipelines to Ukraine, and now, some analysts fear this strategy may extend to the EU, in which many countries are still 30% dependent on Russian energy. China is currently striking oil deals not only with Russia but also with Iran. New oil deals are being signed even after a $2 billion agreement fell through this spring. And, despite common misinformation, it was actually China that was reaping the greatest rewards through thereopening of Iraqi oil fields, not the U.S., all while U.S. military assets were essentially wasted in the region. Now, any U.S. benefits are coming into question as Iraq disintegrates into chaos yet again. With the speed of the new Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) insurgency growing, it is unclear whether America will have ANY access to Iraqi oil in the near future. If ISIS is successful in overrunning Iraq, it is unlikely that Iraqi oil will ever be traded for dollars again. Unrest in Iraq has already caused substantial market spikes in oil prices, and I can say with considerable confidence that this trend is going to continue through the rest of the year. Interestingly, mainstream news sources suggest that Saudi Arabia has been a primary funding source for the ISIS movement. It is true that the Saudis have warned for years that they would fund and arm Sunni insurgents if America ever pulled out of the country. But, I would point out that the U.S. has also been covertly supporting such extremist groups in the Mideast for quite some time, and this is not discussed at all in the MSM storyline. The mainstream narrative is painting a picture of betrayal by the Saudis against the U.S. through subversive groups designed to break the foundations of nations opposed to its policy views. When, in fact, the destabilization of Iraq has been nurtured by money and weapons from both America and Saudi Arabia. It was the CIA which trained ISIS insurgents secretly in Jordan in preparation for their subversive war in Syria. It was an agreement signed by George W. Bush and delegated under Obama's watch that allowed ISIS leader, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, to be set free in 2009. Saudi Arabia has been openly arming the Sunni's for years with the full knowledge of the U.S. government. So then, why is the narrative being created that America and Saudi Arabia are at odds over ISIS? Such a development would place the U.S. squarely in conflict with the Saudi government, our only remaining toehold in the global oil market. Without Saudi Arabia’s patronage of the dollar, most OPEC nations will follow (including Kuwait), and the dollar WILL lose its petrodollar status. Period. In the past few days, Saudi Arabia has demanded that the foreign interests refrain from any military intervention in Iraq. While Barack Obama has repositioned an aircraft carrier, armed troops, and special forces in the area. Now, my regular readers understand that this was going to happen eventually anyway. The Federal Reserve’s quantitative easing bonanza has destroyed true dollar value and spread unknown trillions of dollars in fiat across the planet. The dollar’s death has been assured. It has been slated for execution. This is why half the world is positioning to dump the currency altogether. My regular readers also know that the destruction of the dollar is not an accident; it is part of a carefully engineered strategy leading to the centralization of all economic power under the umbrella of a new global currency basket system controlled by the International Monetary Fund. I believe Saudi Arabia may be a near term trigger in the next great shift in petroleum markets away from the dollar. Renewed U.S. involvement in Iraq, diplomatic tensions over ISIS, and more lucrative offers from Eastern partners have been edging Saudi Arabia away from strict petrodollar ties. This shift is also not limited to Saudi Arabia. “Abu Dhabi, the most influential member of the United Arab Emirates,” has suddenly ended its long-standing exclusive relationship with Western oil companies and has signed a historic deal with China’s state-owned China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC). Russia has formed the new Eurasian Economic Union with Belarus and Kazakhstan, two countries with freshly discovered oil fields. On the surface, it appears as though the world is huddling itself around oil resources in an environment of East versus West conflict. However, these changes are not as much about petroleum as they are about the petrodollar. The reality is the dollar’s reserve-status days are numbered and this is all part of the plan. What does this mean for us? It means much higher gas prices in the coming months and years. Is $4 to $5 per gallon gasoline a burden on your pocketbook? Try $10 to $11 per gallon, perhaps more. Do you think the economy is straining as it is under the weight of current gas prices? Imagine the earthquake within our freight-based system when the cost of trucking shipments triples. And guess who will end up paying for the increased costs? That’s right: you, the consumer. High energy prices affect everything, including shelf prices of retail goods. This is just the beginning of what I believe will be ever expanding inflation in oil prices, leading to the end of the dollar’s petroleum reserve status, then it's world reserve status by default, and the introduction of a basket currency system that will ultimately benefit a select few global financiers while diminishing the quality of living for millions, if not billions, of people.

http://rt.com/business/162084-dollar-collapse-monetary-system/ 'Death of money': Author Rickards predicts collapse of global monetary system Published time: May 28, 2014 19:43 Edited time: May 29, 2014 04:32Get short URL Download video (36.8 MB) Share on tumblr Tags Budget, China, Crisis, Currencies,Economy, Government Spending, India,Iran, Markets, Natural resources,Resources, Russia, Russia and the global economy, USA The collapse of the monetary system awaits the world in the near future, says financial expert James Rickards. Russia and China's desire to rid the US dollar of its global reserve currency status is an early sign of the “increasingly inevitable” crisis. “China has three trillion dollars, but they are buying gold as fast as they can. China worries that the US is going to devalue the dollar through inflation so they want to have a hedge if the dollar goes down, so the gold will go up,” Rickards told RT. As one of the key events in support of his forecast, Rickards points to the words uttered by Russian President Vladimir Putin at the 18th International Economic Forum in St. Petersburg that took place earlier this month. “Putin said he envisions a Eurasian economic zone involving Eastern Europe, Central Asia, and Russia. The Russian ruble is nowhere near ready to be a global reserve currency, but it could be a regional reserve currency,” he said, as quoted by ETF Daily News. Rickards’ book about the demise of the dollar was released in April under quite an apocalyptic name – 'The Death of Money.' However, the author is surprised that the events are unfolding much faster than he predicted. “If anything, the tempo of events is faster than expected. Therefore, some of these catastrophic outcomes may come sooner than I wrote about.” Last Wednesday, China and Russia signed a historic US$400 billion gas deal which will provide the world's fastest growing economy with the natural gas it needs to keep pace for the next 30 years. Experts say this could be the catalyst that dethrones the greenback as the world's reserve currency. James Rickards The best-selling author writes that the “linchpin” of the collapse is the approaching failure of the dollar since it is at the foundation of the system. Powerful countries such as Russia, China, Iran, and India do not rely on the US in their national security and would benefit from the US economy being weaker, thus desiring to break free from the dollar standard. He elaborates that the dual collapse “looks increasingly inevitable.” “The mistakes have already been made. The instability is already in the system. We’re just waiting for that catalyst that I call the snowflake that starts the avalanche,” he said, as quoted by ETF. There are three big international factors that are pressuring the dollar right now – Russia, China, and Saudi Arabia. “Since the 1970s, Saudi Arabia [has been] the leader in what’s called the petrodollar. It basically means that Saudi Arabia and, by extension, OPEC, price oil in dollars, so the world market is in dollars. “Russia is a major natural resource exporter; they price their exports in dollars as well. But Russia now is engaged in a financial war with the US around the issues in Crimea and Ukraine.” The threats to the dollar are “ubiquitous,” the author states in his book. The only way the US can pay off its $17 trillion debt is with inflation, which would drive other countries away from the dollar while the accumulation of gold by Russia and China presages the shift to a new reserve asset. “The next time we will have a liquidity crisis in the world it’s going to be bigger than the ability of central banks to deal with it. The IMF will basically have to bail out the world by printing the SDRs (an international reserve asset created by the IMF in 1969 to supplement its member countries' official reserves). By that time, you will see the SDR emerge as the new global world currency,” Rickards told RT. Share on tu

Divemaster...The best laid plans of mice and men may indeed be as you described. Consider: 4 last wars As we entered this millennium 13 years ago, there were Four wars that the Bible spoke about that were not yet "fulfilled" The Jeremiah 50,51 war...Involving modern Iraq The Isaiah 17 war ....Involving the destruction of Damascus The Ezekiel 38 & 39 war....involving "Gog & Magog" The Rev. 19:11 and Zechariah 12 & 14 war...Called Armageddon The Iraqi war of Jeremiah 50 & 51 is now history. Whether you think it was right or wrong it had to happen.... The world is about to see the fulfillment of Isaiah's war culminating in the destruction of Damascus...interesting because it is touted as being the city with the longest verifiable continuous human occupation...It has never been destroyed! Syria is embroiled in a no win situation as the Sunni's and Shiite's fight for control of Islam and in the process backing Israel into a corner for it's very survival ... and all the worlds power players are in the game as well... From Daniel 11 We have the King of the North (which includes the US & Europe) and on there other side we have Ezekiel's Gog & and Maygog ( which includes Russia) and interestingly enough on both sides we have the King of the South also from Daniel 11, the kingdoms of Islam, "fighting itself".....What could go wrong? Actually nothing! It will all happen at the appropriate time as known by God before time. The war between good and evil, the duality of the universe is about to wrap itself up and enter extinction as we enter into an age of unity with the God of Creation....keep that good news in mind as the ride gets rough! There is some white knuckle, white water rapids ahead but after that some very peaceful smooth sailing that is beyond your wildest imaginations!!! Get Ready, Get Ready, Get Ready !!!! That which has been … is what will be Eccl 1:9 Declaring the end from the beginnings...Ish 46:9 It's easy as 1-2-3...&4 in that order...like dominoes falling

Encouraging Info thanks!

Indeed!

Well said all three of you! It sounds like natural gas laundering...

Just found the same message on my chase online account... verified they are making improvements anyway...Hopefully those improvements will extend to us ....sooner or later there will come a suddenly

I bought some more dinar on 6-26-13 from a reputable dealer with whom I have done business before. I was told yesterday that the incoming shipments were held up in Customs and that it would be free today...I have not heard from them yet today. He did also tell me that they had raised their prices by a couple hundred dollars / million, complementing me on my timing, Lucky I guess if and when I receive the order

Sweet...I had the honor of having one for a wing man for about a minute one day flying east of Miramars airspace in my little Grumman tiger ... when suddenly I was joined by an Grumman Tomcat off my wingtip. port side I looked probably with my eyes bulging out he saluted rocked his wings, I returned the greeting & then he was gone.. for a moment I was one of the "Big Boys" Ironic my little private plane was called a Tiger and His was the Tomcat.....

Protestors in Iraq block highway, call for PM to step down Iraqi PM tells Kurds to hand over fugitive Vice President Iraq brands Turkey ‘hostile,’ with a sectarian agenda. Erdogan: Turkey will not extradite Iraqi VP ... Tens of thousands of protestors in Iraq have called for Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki to stand down after nine guards loyal to Finance Minister Rafa al-Essawi were arrested and charged with terrorism offences on Thursday. Protestors blocked a main highway leading to Syria and Jordan in Ramadi in western Iraq on Sunday and also gathered in the streets of Fallujah. The arrest of the nine guards sparked protests and calls for the Prime Minister to leave office. After the arrests, Essawi called for a vote of no confidence in Maliki. http://www.albawaba.com/news/iraq-protests-nouri-al-maliki-458763
