Actually from my quick read it is bang on with market economics. The Federal Reserve has basically been printing money to fund this war and to supposedly stimulate the economy. There have been massive injections of liquidity to try and jump start the economy (btw this isn't a conspiracy this is common knowledge).

Interest rates are soo low to encourage borrowing. The immediate impact of this is that the USD has been in a downward spiral for the last year or so.

Although people in the US might not realise it the USD's your are holding today are worth ~20% less than they were this time last year.

Now this whole thing about this war being about the Euro sounds far fetched, but on a basic level it does make sense. If people will buy and sell oil in euro's as opposed to USD then the market falls out of the USD. What determines the price of the USD is supply and demand. If other things being equal and oil is traded in euros as opposed to USD then demand for USD is greately reduced, therefore the price of the dollar drops.

Exactly All the interest rate drops were to encourage to start
spending/investing which brings in money and can be used to
pay off the "borrowed" dollars. that were not backed by gold.

On top of that if the US has to buy Oil with Euros
instead of their own dollar it gets worse.

Of course the EU is not interested to change the situation. For
them the oil price in euros is a lot better. So there are not too
many countries interested in changing that.

Add that to all the nonsense the US is using to go to war and
acting to be the liberators of the Iraqi people and you have
pretty much summed up what this war is all about.

Excuse me, but I though there was only one human race on earth today, the Homo Sapiens Sapiens. Please correct me if I'm wrong.:winkwink:

you're wrong.

?race? is seen to represent a population that is biologically distinct according to some defined parameter. It is also used interchangeably with the term ?subspecies? by most researchers when race is defined by biological parameters

You're not wiggling out THAT easily. Why bring it up, why quote it, unless you want us to think about Jews? And yet what do you (or that quote) mean by "Jew"? Please clarify. Is it the practicing Jew, the ethnic Jew, or is it just a slur one uses against business people one doesn't like?

Great way to establish credibilty. Start off with the typical anti-Semitic rant about Jewish conspiracies.

Tell me, would you, how we got all this control. Do know how many Jews there are in the world? There are about 14 million. Yeah, that's it. 6 million were killed in WWII, about 1/3 of all Jews in the world were killed.

And in every generation Jews have been persetuted, and generally whatever government they lived under repossessed their homes and money.

So how the fuck do we supposedly control all this shit? Why are you so anti-Jewish?

You obviously have a lot of grave psychological issues you need to work out. Perhaps we can start a fund for you to work out your feelings of inadequacy.

Don't worry, medication can do wonders for you.

Bon voyage!

it all comes down to US vs. EU

this will be a lot clearer in the near future
