If Saddam Hussein holds the ability some believe he currently has to inflict chaos in the Middle East, then in whats ways might he act or non act, and why? Upfront, if Saddam Hussein allows his nations oil to be pumped extra so that there is no big oil shortage at the time of Prez elections in November, then he helps get Gore elected and help deny Bush's son Bush getting elected under the assumption that we currently have an oil crises in the making. He ofcourse has to accept a Jewish V.P. But Saddam Hussein wants pain and misery of long duration for this former prez that crushed his country in war. Even if Saddam Hussein could erase the former prez i do not think he would as in poofed one feels no pain, and if the prez went to heaven, its a nice place. So how can Saddam Hussein make former prez unhappy. Deny his son the prez ??? Probably not since his son will continue as Texas Governer and all bushes are well feed and housed and happy folks. So? Simple, put the son into the prez and cause the son lots and lots of trouble, and Saddam Hussein is extremely able both mentally and situation wise to do so just so long that the USA does not invade Iraq and declare it state 49+1 of the USA. Completely insane to even consider the USA to occupy Iraq. So Saddam Hussein causes trouble in Middle East, supply of oil in doubt leading to price of oil to explode and "Its the Economy of Oil ######" that causes inflation and fears and big energy and food and other stuff that causing higt bills to usa voting citizens. To change over to China, an article at the LeMetropoleCafe mentioned that China holds a very huge big amount of USA dollars. To me its "i have no idea what this is" as why would China store usa paper bills in its Central Banks warehouse? But if so, then mentioned was a possibility that if China tried to exchange its paper usa dollars into cheap phsical gold, then that would be a GATA'great'ation of an event the present usa gov does not. BlackMail using green & gold. Does China care if its gore or bush? Probably not, but they extremely care about Taiwan and if they "take it" with an already understanding between prez ClinSin that "Do Not Interferr" beyond words and UN paper work, else exchange us$ for gold. So, looks like its a win win for GATA here, if USA goes to war with China, physical gold does it "thing" during times of great wars, and if usa stays out and lets China do it "thing" then after its over in a very short time, China will need wealth to pay for the war and so they will say to ClinSin SUCKER as in sorry but usa$ for gold will still be done and whata you gonna do, tell public you took a bribe? Not sure, but i think GATA mentioned that China just sold a huge amount of physical silver into world markets at the request of the usa in exchange for something. dougak
