Bíð spenntur eftir íranska olíumarkaðnum, sem ráðgert var að opna þann 20. mars,
en hefur ekki látið sjá sig enn. Sem einmitt af “algerri tilviljun” var sami mánuðurinn og “seinasti sjéns” var að gera eitthvað í kjarnorkudeilu við Íran, þótt allir viti að það mun taka þá svona 10 ár að þróa kjarnorkusprengjur :)
The Proposed Iranian Oil BourseThe man that actually did demand Euro for his oil was Saddam Hussein in 2000..When other countries, like Iran, wanted payment in other currencies, most notably Euro and Yen, the danger to the dollar was clear and present, and a punitive action was in order. Bush’s Shock-and-Awe in Iraq was not about Saddam’s nuclear capabilities, about defending human rights, about spreading democracy, or even about seizing oil fields; it was about defending the dollar, ergo the American Empire. It was about setting an example that anyone who demanded payment in currencies other than U.S. Dollars would be likewise punished.
Sama með Venezuela, Chavez talaði um að skipta en fékk í hausinn
(misheppnaða) valdaránstilraun 2002 með stuðningi BNA.. og nú er það Íran - enda er þessi markaður stærri “árás” á stöðu dollarsins heldur en Saddam Hussein breytti.
