Increasing Global Competition For Oil and Gas Reserves

"My name is Dr. Debra H. Freeman. I appear before the Committee as the national spokesperson for Lyndon H. LaRouche Jr., to voice the strongest possible opposition to the nomination of John Ashcroft as the next Attorney General of the United States. My opposition to Mr. Ashcroft's confirmation is shaped by two considerations that go beyond the normal factors that one would weigh, in considering a candidate for the top law enforcement post in the U.S. Federal Executive Branch......the epicenter of the current phase of global monetary and physical economic disintegration is the advanced sector, specifically the United States, with our skyrocketing balance of trade deficit, negative household savings, and collapsing real industrial output. Thus, the crisis phase that we have now entered has the most profound implications for the well-being of the American population and goes to the heart of our domestic tranquility and the common good. .... The incoming Administration will be faced, immediately, with the choice between: (1) abandoning the current economic and monetary policy axioms and returning to policies that, in the past, have led the United States and the world out of the path of disaster, as during the Presidency of Franklin D. Roosevelt; or, (2) under the guise of 'crisis management,' imposing a form of brutal bureaucratic fascism on the United States, that bears striking similarities to the conditions under which Adolph Hitler seized power in Germany in 1933. It was Hitler's 'crisis management' of the Reichstag fire [These remarks made January 2001 are extremely prescient. Exactly the same principle has been applied to 911, nlpwessex] and other events, real and manufactured, that established the dictatorship that no one in Germany had anticipated, even weeks before the coup was carried out. ....

"A new and potentially explosive Great Game is being set up and few in Britain are aware of it. .....It is the large reserves of oil and gas in the Caucasus, notably the Caspian basin. Pipelines are the counters in this new Great Game....There is also a plan, backed by the US, for a pipeline running from the Bulgarian Black sea port of Burgas through Macedonia to the Albanian Adriatic port of Vlore. While the US and Nato - and now the EU - hold out the prospect of untold wealth for the Caucasian states of the former Soviet Union, the west will also have an important economic stake in Albania and Macedonia.....[hence the CIA funding of terrorists in the Balkans- see London Times, 3 September 2001 - nlpwessex]"

"A former Pakistani diplomat has told the BBC that the US was planning military action against Osama Bin Laden and the Taleban even before last week's [Sept 2001] attacks. Niaz Naik, a former Pakistani Foreign Secretary, was told by senior American officials in mid-July that military action against Afghanistan would go ahead by the middle of October. Mr Naik said US officials told him of the plan at a UN-sponsored international contact group on Afghanistan which took place in Berlin..... The wider objective, according to Mr Naik, would be to topple the Taleban regime and install a transitional government of moderate Afghans in its place - possibly under the leadership of the former Afghan King Zahir Shah. Mr Naik was told that Washington would launch its operation from bases in Tajikistan, where American advisers were already in place. ....he said it was doubtful that Washington would drop its plan even if Bin Laden were to be surrendered immediately by the Taleban."
US 'planned attack on Taleban'
BBC Online, 18 September 2001

"Bin Laden and the Taliban received threats of possible American military strikes against them two months before the terrorist assaults on New York and Washington, according to The Guardian of London. The warnings to the Taliban originated at a four-day meeting of senior Americans, Russians, Iranians and Pakistanis at a hotel in Berlin in mid-July.... Until August, the U.S. government saw the Taliban regime 'as a source of stability in Central Asia that would enable the construction of an oil pipeline across Central Asia,' from the rich oilfields in Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, and Kazakhstan, through Afghanistan and Pakistan, to the Indian Ocean [this was vital to Enron's interests in the region, nlpwessex], they said ....When the Taliban refused to accept U.S. conditions, 'this rationale of energy security changed into a military one.' 'The Americans indicated to us that in case the Taliban does not behave and in case Pakistan also doesn’t help us to influence the Taliban, then the United States would be left with no option but to take an overt action against Afghanistan,' said Niaz Naik, a former foreign minister of Pakistan, who attended the meetings...'At one moment during the negotiations, the U.S. representatives told the Taliban, ‘either you accept our offer of a carpet of gold, or we bury you under a carpet of bombs,’ ' Brisard said in an interview in Paris....."

"President Bush was expected to sign detailed plans for a worldwide war against al-Qaida two days before Sept.11...

NBC NEWS WASHINGTON, May 16

"Mr. Chairman, the Caspian region contains tremendous untapped hydrocarbon reserves......[one] option is to build a pipeline south from Central Asia to the Indian Ocean. One obvious route south would cross Iran, but this is foreclosed for American companies because of U.S. sanctions legislation. The only other possible route is across Afghanistan, which has of course its own unique challenges..... From the outset, we have made it clear that construction of the pipeline we have proposed across Afghanistan could not begin until a recognized government is in place that has the confidence of governments, lenders, and our company.....The 1,040-mile long oil pipeline would extend south through Afghanistan to an export terminal that would be constructed on the Pakistan coast."

"In the spring of 1995, Turkmenistan and Pakistan commissioned Bulgheroni's company to study the Afghan route. But that summer, a rival entered the game. John Imle, president of California-based Unocal Corp., wooed Niyazov and Benazir Bhutto, then prime minister of Pakistan, throughout July with a vision of a Unocal pipeline following roughly the same route as the one proposed by Bridas. A Unocal link had strong appeal for Niyazov. Afghanistan was in turmoil. A big American oil company could draw on the political muscle of the United States to promote Turkmenistan's energy interests. In October 1995, both Bulgheroni and Imle followed Niyazov to New York for the opening of the U.N. General Assembly. Each expected to be chosen to build the Afghan pipeline, according to sources close to the two men. On Oct. 21, the nod went to the Americans as Niyazov announced the selection of Unocal. Looking on at the announcement ceremony was former secretary of state Henry A. Kissinger, now a Unocal consultant."

Executive Intelligence Review, 13 Nov 2001

"What probably made the most difference to U.S. policymakers [in welcoming the arrival of the Taliban], though, was the Taliban's commitment to a particular commercial enterprise. The Taliban had promised to permit construction of giant gas and oil pipelines from Central Asia, down through Afghanistan, to Pakistan. The main contender for that work was an American-Saudi coalition of Unocal and Delta oil companies.... It took a while for many in the West to catch on, but inside Afghanistan the key players were already well-aware of the pipeline's importance--and its potential effect on policy. In 1996, during a conversation in Kabul not long before the Taliban reached the capital, Ahmed Shah Massoud asked me about Unocal, its motives, its methods, and its ties to the U.S. government. When the Taliban finally reached the gates of Kabul, it was well-financed and well-equipped--and it could count upon the acquiescence of the United States..... Hours after the Taliban took Kabul in September 1996, State Department spokesman Glyn Davies said the United States could see 'nothing objectionable' about the version of Islamic law the Taliban had imposed in the areas it then controlled...... in one encounter a few months before the Taliban entered Kabul, a mid-level bureaucrat at the State Department perched on his couch and tried to convince me that the Taliban was really not such a bad bunch. 'You get to know them and you find they really have a great sense of humor,' he said. If the administration seemed nonchalant about the Taliban, Unocal was downright gleeful. In a statement to Reuters that the company has worked ever since to retract, a Unocal official applauded the Taliban's arrival and spoke glowingly about the immediate prospects for doing business with the group. Of course, this was hardly surprising, given Unocal's courtship of the Taliban. The company had played host to Taliban clerics on a trip to the United States. Unocal had also hired as 'consultants' key Americans involved in Afghan operations during the jihad years. The former U.S. ambassador to Pakistan, Robert Oakley, went on the Unocal payroll. A former official of the U.N. secretary-general's mission to Afghanistan, Charles Santos, was given a far more obscure position--he went to work for Unocal's Saudi partner, the firm Delta....."

"Under the influence of U.S. oil companies, the government of George W. Bush initially blocked U.S. secret service investigations on terrorism, while it bargained with the Taliban the delivery of Osama bin Laden in exchange for political recognition and economic aid, two French intelligence analysts claim. In the book "Bin Laden, la verite interdite" ("Bin Laden, the forbidden truth"), that appeared in Paris on Wednesday, the authors, Jean-Charles Brisard and Guillaume Dasquie, reveal that the Federal Bureau of Investigation's deputy director John O'Neill resigned in July in protest over the obstruction. The two claim the U.S. government's main objective in Afghanistan was to consolidate the position of the Taliban regime to obtain access to the oil and gas reserves in Central Asia. They affirm that until August, the U.S. government saw the Taliban regime 'as a source of stability in Central Asia that would enable the construction of an oil pipeline across Central Asia', from the rich oilfields in Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, and Kazakhstan, through Afghanistan and Pakistan, to the Indian Ocean. Until now, says the book, 'the oil and gas reserves of Central Asia have been controlled by Russia. The Bush government wanted to change all that'. But, confronted with Taliban's refusal to accept U.S. conditions, 'this rationale of energy security changed into a military one', the authors claim. 'At one moment during the negotiations, the U.S. representatives told the Taliban, 'either you accept our offer of a carpet of gold, or we bury you under a carpet of bombs',' Brisard said in an interview in Paris....The last meeting between U.S. and Taliban representatives took place in August, five weeks before the attacks on New York and Washington, the analysts maintain.....Bush's family has a strong oil background. So are some of his top aides. From the U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney, through the director of the National Security Council Condoleeza Rice, to the Ministers of Commerce and Energy, Donald Evans and Stanley Abraham, all have for long worked for U.S. oil companies. Cheney was until the end of last year president of Halliburton, a company that provides services for oil industry; Rice was between 1991 and 2000 manager for Chevron; Evans and Abraham worked for Tom Brown, another oil giant.... The book confirms earlier reports that the U.S. government worked closely with the United Nations during the negotiations with the Taliban.....These meetings, also called '6+2' because of the number of states (six neighbours plus U.S. and Russia) involved, have been confirmed by Naif Naik, former Pakistani Minister for Foreign Affairs. In a French television news programme two weeks ago, Naik said during a '6+2' meeting in Berlin in July, the discussions turned around 'the formation of a government of national unity. If the Taliban had accepted this coalition, they would have immediately received international economic aid. And the pipe lines from Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan would have come,' he added. Naik also claimed that Tom Simons, the U.S. representative at these meetings, openly threatened the Taliban and Pakistan. 'Simons said, 'either the Taliban behave as they ought to, or Pakistan convinces them to do so, or we will use another option'. The words Simons used were 'a military operation'," Naik claimed.".

Decision to deal with bin Laden first, then Saddam
London Times, 29 August 2002

"If there were any long-term disruption in oil deliveries from the Persian Gulf, it would cause serious energy shortages, rising prices and general economic panic for the world's economy. As a result of this, many states dependent on Gulf oil are hoping to find new sources of energy in the Caspian Sea region, a source believed to be more reliable and less subject to political disruption. The Caspian Sea is believed to hold the world's third-largest reserves of oil and natural gas, after the Persian Gulf and Siberia. Because of their heavy reliance on Middle Eastern oil, Western nations, including the U.S., have been particularly interested in tapping Caspian Sea oil.... We need to keep in mind that, aside from promoting Caspian oil development, the U.S. must continue to diversify its oil supplies in other regions and increase its strategic oil reserve. Despite new pipelines and plans for increases in oil output, it is unlikely that the Caspian Sea will replace the Persian Gulf in the near future as the major source of oil in world trade."

Caspian Oil Could Reduce Our Dependence on Arab Oil

"It's the meddling in the internal affairs of the indigenous people of the region to ensure that said oil stays in the hands of the privileged few that has led to an enraged underground movement of terrorists in these lands. And oil is all we're there for - what else of value comes from that part of the world, what strategic value does it have otherwise? That may seem as obvious as the nose on our collective face, but it's something no one wants to acknowledge. Especially given the ties between the media and the oil companies: ABC is tied to Texaco, NBC to British Petroleum, Time Warner to Mobil Oil, as revealed in the marvelous media-watchdog flier Censored Alert in the summer of 2000. And now the oil industry is entrenched as America's No. 1 player with Bush and Cheney, two oil men (one failed, one successful) in command. Eliminate the oil, and the American presence ends in the area; the resentment aimed at our land and our people also ends.... It's our own greed and need for control that has led us into this petroleum quagmire. Ross Perot, hardly the voice of progressive politics, made the canny observation in the first presidential debate of 1992 that the Gulf War was fought solely for control of oil and nothing more."
It's the Oil

"The removal of President Saddam Hussein would open Iraqs rich new oilfields to Western bidders and bring the prospect of lessening dependence on Saudi oil. No other country offers such untapped oilfields whose exploitation could lessen tensions over the Western presence in Saudi Arabia.... Anthony Cordesman, of the Centre for Strategic and International Studies in Washington, said that the issue for the US was as much the security of the Gulf as access to particular oilfields. 'You are looking down the line to a world in 2020 when reliance on Gulf oil will have more than doubled. The security of the Gulf is an absolutely critical issue.' Gerald Butt, Gulf editor of the Middle East Economic Survey, said: 'The removal of Saddam is, in effect, the removal of the last threat to the free flow of oil from the Gulf as a whole.'..."

Coming cataclysmic global oil and natural gas shortages are about to become very real, certainly within the next two years, to everyone on the planet. Those countries that have access to what oil remains will survive and dominate and those that do not will atrophy and disintegrate. This is a deadly game of musical chairs. It is the kind of unspoken crisis that would compel the U.S. Congress to worship Caligula's horse, forget the Constitution and international law, and sell out completely....."

"In the magazine's April 1 edition, writer Nicholas Lemann records one of the downright scariest set of interviews to appear in print since Richard Nixon's Oval Office ravings about nuclear war. In them, the key movers and shakers in the present Bush administration lay out the plan they have been following since Sept. 11, a plan that will launch this country into a series of regional wars aimed at insuring that the United States will remain the supreme power in the world. Almost before the Berlin Wall came down in 1989, then Secretary of Defense Dick Cheney called together a group of players to chart out a strategy for the post-Cold War world. The names should be familiar, because they run the present administration: Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, Deputy Secretary of Defense Paul Wolfowitz, Secretary of State Colin Powell, and Lewis 'Scooter' Libby, Cheney's chief of staff. The goal was to 'shape' the world in order to, in the words of another team member, Zalmay Khalizad (now special envoy to Afghanistan), 'preclude the rise of another global rival for the indefinite future.' In his book 'From Containment to Global Leadership?' Khalizad argues that it is 'vital' to prevent such a rival from developing and 'to be willing to use force if necessary.'.."

While the unresolved conflict with Iraq provides the immediate justification, the need for a substantial American force presence in the Gulf transcends the issue of the regime of Saddam Hussein.' The PNAC document supports a 'blueprint for maintaining global US pre-eminence, precluding the rise of a great power rival, and shaping the international security order in line with American principles and interests'....[The report] spotlights China for 'regime change' saying 'it is time to increase the presence of American forces in southeast Asia'..... calls for the creation of 'US Space Forces', to dominate space, and the total control of cyberspace to prevent 'enemies' using the internet against the US..... The PNAC report also... refers to key allies such as the UK as 'the most effective and efficient means of exercising American global leadership'...Tam Dalyell, the Labour MP, father of the House of Commons and one of the leading rebel voices against war with Iraq, said: '.......

Cheney had refused to turn over records from his energy task force, and the GAO, the 80-year-old investigative arm of Congress, was preparing to sue a federal entity for the first time.....Comptroller General David M. Walker described the fight as a direct threat to the GAO's reason for being, a separation-of-powers issue that would determine whether the legislative branch could exercise the oversight role envisioned by the founding fathers. '[Cheney's] attorneys are engaged in a broad-based frontal attack on our statutory authority,' Walker told The Washington Post in August. 'We cannot let that stand.'...But the GAO is letting it stand -- at least for now. Walker put the lawsuit on hold after the terrorist attacks two months ago....'Candidly, this is another example of how the events of September 11th have had a significant ripple effect on a range of issues, some of which have nothing to do with terrorism,' said Walker..... Meanwhile, senators from both parties have complained that briefings about war and anthrax have been practically devoid of information.

The document was obtained by the FBI but was not allowed to be shared with other agencies in order to protect Enron. Multiple sources confirm that American law enforcement agencies were deliberately kept in the dark and systematically prevented from connecting the dots before 9/11 in order to aid Enron’s secret and immoral Taliban negotiations.... in January 2001, Vice President Cheney allegedly reinstated the intelligence block and expanded it to effectively preclude any investigations whatsoever of Saudi-Taliban-Afghan oil connections. Former FBI counter-terrorism chief John O’Neil resigned from the FBI in disgust, stating that he was ordered not to investigate Saudi-Al Qaida connections because of the Enron pipeline deal.
