Peak Oil and 9-11

[TheRealThreeP]

Anyone who says, "It's all about oil," is closed-minded and simply refuses to be convinced.

[madmanmikey]

I really like your production of this video. Myself, when I do anything (which is rare) it's pretty straight forward and simplistic interviews.

Thanks!

[xHDR4317x]

song name?

[barbh1]

Very beautiful video. I agree about getting off the "stuff", or dying.

[Weirdo10o4]

No one shut down "the best air defense system in the world". Your credibility goes down by 20% when you write "civillians". Don't worry, fusion power is already under way. And since you're saying that 9/11 was to get oil then why did the US leave Iraq after the Gulf War, and why is oil going to China now?

[desheik]

The US used 9-11 as a pretext to the full scale invasion of Muslim lands that collectively amount to 70 per cent of the world oil reserves. Military bases and puppet governments "control" access to the oil, not necessarily use it.

Before the invasion Iraq was switching to the Euro and the Taliban was not playing ball on pipeline access, both situations now reversed.

At the same time the destruction of two nations and the murder of a million Arabs establishes Cracker authority.

Weirdo.

[Weirdo10o4]

Why didn't they stay in Iraq after the Gulf War, since that kind of a plan would've been in progress from way before that, and it would've still fallen flat on its face...? It would've been cheaper to go around Afghanistan than attack an entire country, just to get a freaking pipe through... And killing people does nothing to establish anything.

[waitew]

Go around Afghanistan?LOL have you noticed what lies BETWEEN Afghanistan & Iraq?It's Iran a country we are now rattling sabers against.When we invade it'll be on two fronts. How convenient.

[Weirdo10o4]

I was thinking east, but there was a strange shape there I didn't remember. China, well possibly. You won't invade Iran.

[waitew]

Actually i believe we said 911 was to control the oil,which we now do due to 911. It flows only IF & when we say it does & our puppet regime grants the contracts to whomever we tell them too & once the money gos into the hand of our puppet it's ends up in the pockets of the puppeteer.

[Weirdo10o4]

Oh, so if you leave Iraq...? If you cut off oil from a deal, it'll make your relations go bad..

[kovy274hart]

It's interesting the way you proposed it but a very strong message with a purpose.

I do agree.

[drutter]

Yeah, this is definitely my kinda thing when I'm in this "mindframe".  :D

[ananuninki]

Like it...keep up the work..never mind the neg comments, give it no mind, message is great!!!

[SoFlaPatriot]

don't agree for too many reason to list but very neat video The gap between idealism and reality is massive and what fills that gap is the failings of human nature. I am all for radically changing our energy independence though....

[XXITXISXWHATXITXISXX]

The movie, The Day The Earth Stood Still, has as its premise a trueism. Man kind will change when he is standing on the cliff and he either jumps off to certain death or turns and fights and changes. Change is the most constant thing on this planet, yet man fights it with all his might right up to the very moment when he either changes or dies. It will happen but humanity and most of its life will be off the cliff before he, as one, turns and stands and fights, and finally changes.

[qizalia]

Whaddaya think is better talkin straight into a mirror or this here computer thingy and why is that steven hawkin voice still the voice of audio preview, and arent you my answering machine?Shes out at the moment but may??That is for sweetness and purity and innocence and a time before with ribbons and forget it ,its all ugly anymore, overdone living overdone.

[qizalia]

No not all ugly, but upsettingly available, news, videos whatever, I just cant watch the disruption anymore, it hurts, the watching must exasperate perpetuate and not bring a change toward an anxiety free existence.

[begbie1978]

stupid fucking conspiracy theories this is total bullshit.

you have no idea on how the world is run and how the world works!!

[intrascoobz]

Talk - The Assasination of Julius Caesar is over an hour long. It speaks in great detail how we, the people, are still asking for the same things. The right to eat, live and work peaceably. The aristocrats back then who had their own self interests are so much of what is being done today. The common people are referred to as the mobs when they were the common laborer along with skilled laborers. It points to the histories of which we are having to face up to that is truths. Ppl Powr!

[Garrick747]

TOOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[chelsearen23]

i feel like so defeated by these questions.. which i'm sure they were counting on. what a shame to have such a tragety swept under the rug. the biggest evidence to me is the lack of concrete facts and investigation.. it just got, blurry.

[onegreenday]

big oil gets gov subsidies (billions) but McCain says he won't subsidize ethanol production.

they won't subsidize alternate energy hardly at all

[onegreenday]

i'm in worcester, ma (i'm 56) it's rained more this summer than anytime in my whole life; which may be a blip in time but it is true.

globall warming puts more moisture in the air which comes down as rain

[chknsamichcarl]

Amazing video. All true. I won't even go on a rant about it because there isn't enough room in this box. Love the Alex Grey.

[glennhudson]

soon as that peice of shit is out of the white house, he's a civillian and indictable.

[onegreenday]

the 1 good thing about 9-ll was the curtain pulled back and their lies plans policies unveiled for anyone with an "eye" to see

[onegreenday]

did you see Bush put the medal on the CIA director for FAILING to protect the nation.

They award failure for their friends.

[PhilosopherFresh]

gnarlyness

[medicinesocks]

i've favorited and featured this video. terrific juxtapositioning of the ideas and the images, your message comes through powerfully. and the music! wowie. us medicinesocks are wondering same things, asking same questions, making similar connections. we think you're really on to something

[gotts21]

PEACE

[thecorporatehippie]

It always has to be someone's fault doesn't it? people are people no matter in what position of influence they find them selves. Perhaps focusing our energy on fixing "problems" instead of finding blame for them, people as a whole would be better off.

[kaosdevice]

Meh. I don't buy into 9-11 theorisim. I can readily accept that our government would be incompetent enough to let something like that happen.

Now peak oil, the energy companies have been lusting after that one for quite some time.

Step away from conspiriacy and check out the logic of what is going down. That is scary enough.

[DKW2088]

Powerful people have divided the masses completely so much. People need to organize to build an army of citizens who are proud to live with minimal money and existing in harmony with the environment. Its all about respect.

[dnHooligan]

dig the music

[HalcyonRain321]

As usual, beautiful, insightful work, desheik.

[HalcyonRain321]

We've got to ground this soaring beast, and it starts with ourselves.

Turn off your televisions. Get out of slave debt. Destroy your credit cards. Stop surrounding yourself with piles of useless junk you don't need and never really wanted. Don't work for or do business with corporate behemoths like Exxon/Mobile and Walmart who destroy our communities and the world with greed and pollution. Find small, local business to trade with. Support local farmers. Grow some of your own food. Unplug.

[stina19]

A social democracy is exactly what we need!!

nice video btw!!

[MiGP1981]

Awesome video, true message.. we are becoming.

[Deadchamber666]

sweet video man i like how this one came out. the pictures you used and the tool song just matched cant wait for the next

[jerseystitch]

What song from Tool is this?

[nidan206]

TooL would not like you using their music for this. not that i disagree with the message

[theoshow2]

Look to Tesla.

[HalcyonRain321]

theshow2,

Yes, Tesla's research and inventions were amazing and promised free energy for all; but he knew that in the wrong hands (ie a power crazed controlling elite) it could be quite dangerous-- and it is.

Look to HAARP.

[morpheus1x]

Same thing with Stanley Meyer. He was not a hoax.

Launching fighter jets is automatic standard procedure when any commercial jet even strays off course. The fighters can intercept within minutes. It happens routinely except on 9-11 when it took hours thanks mainly to the machinations of Cheney and Rumsfeld.

[ACORCASE]

Nice work!

[jezeppie]

The relationship between the supply of oil and natural gas and the workings of the global financial system is arguably the key issue to dealing with Peak Oil as robost and smoothly functiong global capital markets must exist in order to power the transition process.

[jezeppie]

The global financial system is entirely dependent on a constantly increasing supply of oil and natural gas.

[fereznekoff]

Yeah banks and financial institutions have been making loans based on an economic model that will soon cease to exist, cheap oil.

[jezeppie]

Nearly all the work done in the world economy, all the manufacturing, construction, and transportation, is done with energy derived from fuel. The actual work done by human muscle power is miniscule by comparison. And, the lion's share of that fuel comes from oil and natural gas, the primary sources of the world's wealth.

[fereznekoff]

Oil is running out; the climate is changing at a potentially catastrophic rate; wars over scarce resources are brewing; finally, most shocking of all, we don't seem to be having enough ideas about how to fix any of these things.

[jezeppie]

Almost daily, new evidence is emerging that progress can no longer be taken for granted, that a new Dark Age is lying in wait for ourselves and our children . . . growth may be coming to an end. Since our entire financial order from interest rates, pension funds, insurance, to stock markets is predicated on growth, the social and economic consequences may be cataclysmic.

[fereznekoff]

Permanent fuel shortages could tip the world into a generations-long economic depression. Millions would lose their jobs as industry implodes. Farm tractors would be idled for lack of fuel, triggering massive famines. Energy wars would flare. And careless suburbanites would trudge to their nearest big box stores, not to buy Chinese made clothing transported cheaply across the globe, but to scavenge glass and copper wire from abandoned buildings.

[jezeppie]

When the truth can no longer be obscured, the price will spike, the economy nosedive, and the underpinnings of our civilization will start tumbling like dominos. The price of houses will collapse. Stock markets will crash. Within a short period, human wealth -- little more than a pile of paper at the best of times, even with the confidence about the future high among traders -- will shrivel.

[fereznekoff]

There will be emergency summits, diplomatic initiatives, urgent exploration efforts, but the turmoil will not subside. Thousands of companies will go bankrupt, and millions will be unemployed.

[jezeppie]

Fascists will rise, feeding on the anger of the newly poor and whipping up support. These new rulers will find the tools of repression -- emergency laws, prison camps, a relaxed attitude toward torture -- already in place, courtesy of the war on terror.

[aROSHOMATIC]

GREAT VID!

[TaPpingForTruth]

Everyone just needs to pull out of their investments before the next 1929 happens, get horses and ride them, demand removal of sodium flouride, estrogen, and anti-depressants from our drinking water, start either personal or community gardens, demand a better education system, stop watching the tube, create an honest currency system, and march the streets. but.... doing these things makes YOU a terrorist - Welcome to America - Get out quickly

[antigurus]

no questions.

I think you're pretty cool....thats what " I " think.

[blkbishop112]

We're not running out of oil, their's billions and billions of untapped oil. Even here in the US. We just got to tap it.

This is a man's man's video, I love apricot oil.

[MistiCal147]

9-11 could have been conducted by Chilean terrorists in retalition for their 9-11 in 1973 at the hands of Kissinger and Nixon.

Of course no investigation was needed to know who had launched the complete surprise attack. A terrorist passport was found in pristine shape a few blocks from the towers.

How convenient. The invasion of Afghanistan started the same day as the attacks.

[IamYournot33]

The overthrow of the democratically elected government of Chile's president Salvadore Allende on September 11th, 1973 was a terrible watershed.

Pinochet's forces (backed by the CIA) murdered 20,000 and tortured 60,000 in the first few months after 9/11/1973.

[MistiCal147]

One million Chileans were forced into exile. According to leading international relations analyst William I. Robinson, it was "the bloodiest coup in Latin-American history"

[IamYournot33]

This state-terrorist rampage targeted the left and the mass popular social movements ("Marxist" and otherwise) that brought Allende to power in September 1970. Chilean trade unions and other popular organizations were dismantled. Clinics serving the poor were closed down.

[IamYournot33]

Twenty-six newspapers and magazines were shuttered. Chilean state and society, exceptional among Latin American states in the degree or its respect for civic freedoms and bourgeois-democratic political institutions, was militarized at every level.

[MistiCal147]

Then of course came the restructuring of Chile's political economy along "free market" lines, meaning state protection for the wealthy and savage market discipline for the poor. Land, factories, mines, and mills that had been put under public direction for public service were returned to their "rightful" owners, "rescued" for the noble pursuit of egoistic, capitalist profit.

[IamYournot33]

The socioeconomic consequences of the new "freedom" and "democracy" were striking. As the Chilean rich got richer during the first ten years of Pinochet's rule, the number of Chileans living below the official poverty line rose from 17 to 40 percent.

[MistiCal147]

The related slashing of health expenditures and programs led to an explosion of poverty-related diseases at the bottom of Chile's increasingly steep pyramid. Those who questioned the policies leading to these aristocratic outcomes did so at the risk of torture and murder by the fascist "free market" state.

[IamYournot33]

It was all carried out to the applause and with the assistance and political cover of the US power elite. When the American ambassador to Chile expressed misgivings about Pinochet's use of torture, he received a sharp rebuke from US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, who oversaw US covert actions and made sure that the ambassador was kept out of the "black-ops" loop during the early 1970s.

[MistiCal147]

For Kissinger and President Richard Nixon, humanitarian concerns were irrelevant. The higher Cold War goal was to protect global capitalism and American multinational corporate interests from the virus of "Marxism."

[MistiCal147]

Stated more accurately, the purpose was to crush the contagious notion that national social and economic policy should and could be conducted with collective and egalitarian purposes and national self-determination in mind. Kissinger seems to have been most concerned with the demonstration effect successful Chilean left-democratic governance might have on Italy, where left parties were in a position to make gains within the existing parliamentary political system.

[IamYournot33]

Kissinger saw "no reason," he once remarked, that the US should stand by and let a nation "go Marxist" because "its people are irresponsible." Consistent with that judgment, Kissinger and the CIA were centrally involved in efforts to de-stabilize and overthrow the Allende regime through various means, including military force. This pivotal, illegal US intervention in Chile's internal affairs is now a matter of voluminous documentary and scholarly record.

[cheakdirk]

nice video!

[Jonaslk]

In addition to transportation, food, water, and modern medicine, mass quantities of oil are required for all plastics, all computers and all high-tech devices. Some specific examples may help illustrate the degree to which our technological base is dependent on fossil fuels:

[Jonaslk]

The construction of an average car consumes the energy equivalent of approximately 20 barrels (840 gallons) of oil. Ultimately, the construction of a car will consume an amount of fossil fuels equivalent to twice the car's final weight.

[Jonaslk]

It's also worth nothing that the construction of an average car consumes almost 120,000 gallons of fresh water. Fresh water is also rapidly depleting and happens to be absolutely essential to the petroleum refining process as each gallon of gasoline requires almost two gallons of fresh water for refining.

[Occlane]

The construction of the average desktop computer consumes ten times its weight in fossil fuels.

[Occlane]

The production of one gram of microchips consumes 630 grams of fossil fuels. According to the American Chemical Society, the construction of single 32 megabyte DRAM chip requires 3.5 pounds of fossil fuels in addition to 70.5 pounds of water.

[Jonaslk]

Microchips are not made one by one. They are printed in a batch on a silicon wafer, say, four inches in diameter. Each time a layer of stuff is printed on this silicon wafer, the wafer must be treated so the stuff you've laid on will stay there. This process is achieved through the application of monumental quantities of energy. In effect, as each layer of the circuit is

laid on, the whole wafer is "baked" at temperatures sometimes high

enough to reach the outer limits of technology.

[Jonaslk]

Recent estimates indicate the infrastructure necessary to support the internet consumes 10% of all the electricity produced in the United States. The overwhelming majority of this electricity is produced using coal or natural gas.

[Occlane]

The manufacturing of one ton of cement requires 4.7 million BTUs of energy, which is the amount contained in about 45 gallons of oil or 420 pounds of coal.

[Occlane]

Most alternative systems of energy — including solar panels/solar-nanotechnology, windmills, hydrogen fuel cells, biodiesel production facilities, nuclear power plants, etc. all rely on sophisticated technology and energy-intensive forms of metallurgy.

[Occlane]

In fact, all electrical devices make use of silver, copper, aluminum and platinum, each of which is discovered, extracted, and fashioned using oil or natural gas powered machinery.

[Jonaslk]

To produce a ton of copper requires 112 million BTU's or the equal of 17.8 barrels of oil. The energy cost component of aluminum is 20 times higher.

[Jonaslk]

The manufacturing of aluminum requires inexpensive energy as its most important raw material. It takes twelve times as much power to create a pound of aluminum as it does to make a pound of iron. A good sized aluminum plant uses as much power as a city of 175,000 people.

[Occlane]

Nuclear energy requires uranium, which is also discovered, extracted, and transported using oil powered machinery.

[Jonaslk]

Every other energy source currently used in modern societies gets a substantial "energy subsidy" from oil. The energy used in uranium mining and reactor construction, for example, comes from diesel rather than nuclear power, just as sunlight doesn't make solar panels. What rarely seems to have been noticed is the way these "energy subsidies" intersect with the challenges of declining petroleum production to sabotage the future of alternative energy production in industrial societies.

[Occlane]

Without an affordable supply of oil coupled with healthy and robust financial markets to capitalize the transition, a non-chaotic adaptation phase is unlikely as the raw materials and investment capital necessary to fuel such a large-scale transition will have evaporated.

[Jonaslk]

It's not just transportation and agriculture that are entirely dependent on abundant, cheap oil. Modern medicine, water distribution, and national defense are each entirely powered by oil and petroleum derived chemicals.

[FlaStrules]

The US miitary is the largest consumer of oil on the planet.

[DAMIANSPWN]

The Army calculated that it would burn 40 million gallons of fuel in three weeks of combat in Iraq, an amount equivalent to the gasoline consumed by all Allied armies combined during the four years of World War I.

[DAMIANSPWN]

American GI is the most energy-consuming soldier ever seen on the field of war.

[FlaStrules]

C-130 "Hercules" transport plane get 3 gallons to the mile, that's 500 C-130s in the Air Force and Reserves. The Army's Abrams battle tank weighs 60 tons and needs about 2 gallons to travel a mile. Apache helicopters 6 gallons per mile.

[FlaStrules]

Freedom isn't free, nor is it carbon neutral.

[DAMIANSPWN]

There are 300 million people in USA using 20,730,000 barrels of oil per day.

That is more daily oil consumption than China, Japan, Germany, Russia, India, Canada and Indonesia combined, the next 6 largest oil consumers and the 17th.

[DAMIANSPWN]

300 million people in USA consume more oil than 3,062,000 (3 billion) people.

The USA use consumes more oil daily than China, India, Japan, Korea, Germany and Mexico combined, countries that produce most of the finished products bought and used in USA.

[FlaStrules]

In a Democracy, the military is just a tool of the government. It is the government that is misusing this the military. This misuse is making us less free and less safe.

The government is doing this in our name. It is our responsibility to correct the situation. Money rules when the people won't.

[DAMIANSPWN]

Peak Oil is also called "Hubbert's Peak," named for the Shell geologist Dr. Marion King Hubbert. In 1956, Hubbert accurately predicted that US domestic oil production would peak in 1970. He also predicted global production would peak around the year 2000, which it would have had the politically created oil shocks of the 1970s not delayed it for about 5-10 years.

[FlaStrules]

Pesticides and agro-chemicals are made from oil. Commercial fertilizers are made from ammonia, which is made from natural gas, which is also peaking in the near future. Most farming implements such as tractors and trailers are constructed and powered using oil-derived fuels.

[DAMIANSPWN]

Food storage systems such as refrigerators are manufactured in oil-powered plants, distributed using oil-powered transportation networks and usually run on electricity, which most often comes from natural gas or coal. Like oil and natural gas, coal too is peaking in the near future.

[FlaStrules]

In the US, the average piece of food is transported almost 1,500 miles before it gets to your plate. In Canada, the average piece of food is transported 5,000 miles from where it is produced to where it is consumed.

We are in effect eating fossil fuel.

[cozmikzen]

Awesome Freakin' Video!

[yourboycal]

we dont even have a ball park figure of how much oil is out there.. thoose numbers are only on discovered oil wells.. so many wells still not discovered .. so many wells out there that could give us oil for a good 1000 years .. that havent been discovered.. what if u woke up tommorow and read the headlines massive oil deposit found.. what happens to peak oil then??? nothing it means nothing .. its scare tactic to justify high oil prices.. and clearly working reading ur words :) wake up sheeple!

[yourboycal]

lemme explain what peak oil realy means... when u see the chart of exploration of new fields and it peaks.. the average person thinks thats it and the graph goes down .. but if u research a bit more you'll understand that .. the peak u see there is only for where they stopped making more new oil...less is more for them.. thats more profitable ... then the other way around.. if u were c.e.o which way would u go? profit .. or help the average joe? lool

[zegreeenbuds]

Listen cal, I don't mean to be rude but you are flat out wrong. The best data on peak oil comes from retired academia. The oil companies try to minimize it.

The US government has been aware of the problem since the late 50's and studied it extensively since the 70's. The CIA has been studying it extensively since that time and made plans around the fact that the largest untapped reservoirs are in the middle east and the Caspian basin.

Right where you see new military bases being built.

[yourboycal]

theres a oil field in alaska already discovered.. and its way bigger the saudi's lol .. there are many many oil fields not being drilled u tool... why would we wanna work so much harder to bring oil cheaper for the people... when we can drill less now and say its short . and charge an arm and a leg for it .. how about doing that math??? .. how about doing the math of how big the earth is and how much oil can be stored there .. now do the math of what percetage we cover.msg me for links. nd info

[zegreeenbuds]

No one says there is no more oil but our economy is based on an exponentially increasing supply. Discovery of new fields peaked in the seventies. So while we may discover new oil it will not match population growth and increased demand. We use like 90 million barrels a day.

Oil does not exist everywhere only in pockets. To pretend it is as safe or easy to extract oil in arctic regions as the deserts of Iraq is pure fantasy.

[yourboycal]

no peak oil :p we got more oil then we can fathem.... ask ur self why sell oil cheap in large quantities.. when u can sell expensive oil with the curtain of peak oil to support its outrages prices.. more profit .. less oil used

[zegreeenbuds]

53 of the top hundred producing nations are already in decline. There is no question about the reality of peak oil it's simple math.

Talk about Antartica or deep sea or shale are pure ruses. They do not qualify as the cheap resource we have been harvesting. They are "expensive" to get and or refine.

When Bush took office oil was 20 dollars a barrel.

[ggravityprob2]

Straight up!

[zsixteen74]

cool

[animeradio101]

earlys i hear about 9/11 and it was sad why people die on plane and this happen 7 years.

[dokeyspoke]

well done

[sinorcemoss]

Oil will not just "run out" because all oil production follows a bell curve. This is true whether we're talking about an individual field, a country, or on the planet as a whole.

[masssimpletn]

Oil is increasingly plentiful on the upslope of the bell curve, increasingly scarce and expensive on the down slope. The peak of the curve coincides with the point at which the endowment of oil has been 50 percent depleted. Once the peak is passed, oil production begins to go down while cost begins to go up.

[masssimpletn]

In practical and considerably oversimplified terms, this means that if 2005 was the year of global Peak Oil, worldwide oil production in the year 2030 will be the same as it was in 1980. However, the world's population in 2030 will be both much larger (approximately twice) and much more industrialized (oil-dependent) than it was in 1980.

[masssimpletn]

Consequently, worldwide demand for oil will outpace worldwide production of oil by a significant margin. As a result, the price will skyrocket, oil dependant economies will crumble, and resource wars will explode.

[sinorcemoss]

Yeah, The issue is not one of "running out" so much as it is not having enough to keep our economy running. In this regard, the ramifications of Peak Oil for our civilization are similar to the ramifications of dehydration for the human body.

[sinorcemoss]

The human body is 70 percent water. The body of a 200 pound man thus holds 140 pounds of water. Because water is so crucial to everything the human body does, the man doesn't need to lose all 140 pounds of water weight before collapsing due to dehydration. A loss of as little as 10-15 pounds of water may be enough to kill him.

[masssimpletn]

Right, In a similar sense, an oil based economy such as ours doesn't need to deplete its entire reserve of oil before it begins to collapse. A shortfall between demand and supply as little as 10 to 15 percent is enough to wholly shatter an oil-dependent economy and reduce its citizenry to poverty.

[masssimpletn]

The effects of even a small drop in production can be devastating. For instance, during the 1970s oil shocks, shortfalls in production as small as 5% caused the price of oil to nearly quadruple. The same thing happened in California a few years ago with natural gas: a production drop of less than 5% caused prices to skyrocket by 400%.

[sinorcemoss]

Once the decline gets under way, production will drop (conservatively) by 3% per year, every year. War, terrorism, extreme weather and other "above ground" geopolitical factors will likely push the effective decline rate past 10% per year, thus cutting the total supply by 50% in 7 years.

[masssimpletn]

Vice President Dick Cheney himself. In a 1999 speech he gave while still CEO of Halliburton, stated:

"By some estimates, there will be an average of two-percent annual growth in global oil demand over the years ahead, along with, conservatively, a three-percent natural decline in production from existing reserves. That means by 2010 we will need an additional 50 million barrels per day. Where will that oil come from?"

[sinorcemoss]

Cheney's assesement is supported by the estimates of numerous non-political, retired, and now disinterested scientists, many of whom believe global oil production will peak and go into terminal decline within the next five years, if it hasn't already.

[masssimpletn]

Many industry insiders think the decline rate will far higher than Cheney anticipated in 1999. Andrew Gould, CEO of the giant oil services firm Schlumberger, for instance, recently stated that "An accurate average decline rate of 8% is not an unreasonable assumption." Some industry analysts are anticipating decline rates as high as 13% per year. A 13% yearly decline rate would cause gobal production to drop by 75% in less than 11 years.

[sinorcemoss]

If a 5% drop in production caused prices to triple in the 1970s, what do you think a 50% or 75% drop is going to do?

[zegreeenbuds]

All hell will break loose.

They hand the job over to the gov. and head off to work. Idea? take over a small state capital, say NH then have some friends take over another, and there friends and so on, make sure to bring plenty of food. DC will panic, but first make sure all the military gas tanks are tainted, coose r us ?...

you got it czar...you got it. i think it's kinda funny too and i think it's kinda sad that every time i tap into a truth vid especiall the good ones like this my fuckin bit defender comes on...this never i say never happens when i look at other videos that have nothing to do with the New World Satanic Agenda.....strange.

[INdustrialroBO]

definately most of the US citizens are addicted to the oil dick.

The oil trip.

When will this trip end, the sun is still shining last time I checked, and no one needs a kitchen full of hz. ~hearts yes~ hz no.

Perhaps the wind could power your sewing machine, an extra positive lift energy for your parachute.

the u.s doesn't have any thing the world wants any more, only war. this is their only export, this is their money tree, manufacturing & exporting weapons & war. the u.s is a dying nation & war is their only economy.

u.s.a - more wars - o tolerance.

A powerful statement on peak oil, and beautifully packaged.

[anamarie8]

sometimes when i watch some of your videos i feel like i want to get away(from what i percieve they are saying) and sometimes

like i want to listen clearer,from a clearer place. to everything.

you are an insightful person

The world has to end sometime. We all must die sometime. Sooner or later it all vanishes. Problem is, I don't like being pushed around. I suppose everyone else on the planet doesn't mind but I do. I could care less whether or not we have oil. I could care less about peak oil. I could care less about terrorism. I don't have time for all these made up games. When the time comes, fuck with me or get in my way and I blow you to hell and back. Simple as that. Fuck everything else.

[Kabuki0009]

I agree with you completely, peak oil has come, and they all ready looking at the Antarctic as a untapped source of oil, desperation I think great video *****stars;)

[khalid6591]

if they control the world oil they will control the world .that is what they plan for ,welcome to the NEW WORLD ORDER .

[zamore333]

I find that term a gross oversimplification.

[pure2warrior]

His lord is Lucifer and that kind of forgivness I dont want. No American will ever forgive you!

[PerthPete1]

Interesting theories and/or postulations.

I agree that we are overly reliant on Oil and that we are damaging the world because of that reliance.

[4I8EP]

"damaging" may be the understatement of all time.

If their was a shadowy network of global terrorists that wasn't connected to the CIA through the ISI then they would have to know that striking the Pentagon with a Tomahawk missile would bring down the wrath of God upon them or was it their plan that we invade their hideout and build a pipeline?

[zamore333]

If we end up provoking a bullshit war with Iran then I would be utterly convinced of an overarching strategy. The stakes sre high enough to justify it. To think they would have any compunctions about wasting a few thousand American citizens is to have a poor grasp of the history of the terrorist state.
