MORE DANGEROUS CONFIRMATIONS

How Right Were We? Jan 22, 2010 -- US Raises Concern Over China Oil Policy --

This story by Kjell Aleklett (co-founder of ASPO International) announces that the U.S. is getting tense over China's aggressive pursuit of oil reserves. It's short and pretty scary. It quotes Congressman Roscoe Bartlett, of Maryland.

In 2005 I sat in a private one-on-one meeting with Roscoe Bartlett in his congressional office. He had made posterboard enlargements of two maps I had just published at FTW. He had also enlarged a couple of charts by Matt Savinar. My maps showed how international and geostrategic competition was brewing over diminishing oil reserves. One focused on the world and one solely on Africa.. Congressman Bartlett asked me what I thought was coming next. It was clear that China was in play everywhere. I pointed at Venezuela and the Caribbean, and West Africa. I said, "Proxy Wars". The next day Bartlett took my two my maps and Savinar's charts into a private one-on-one meeting with George W. Bush. -- Just ask him.

How right was I?

For the newcomers these are not "The Map", I refer to so often. That's a metaphor. But I guess these show that I know how to make real one. It just makes me sick to see the reality.

We are truly in the Endgame now. -- So I'm going out to see one of the best guitarists in the world tonight, Michael Jost. He's a good friend and has played some tracks for The New White Trash... Balance.
