heres a great video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0CofEbxtIxI whether this guy is for real or not is irrelevant...the story/model he talks about IS relevant and is, in my opinion, 100% spot on...interesting stuff about iraq and saudi arabia and many other countries...and how countries get impoverished by the interests of big US corporations...
have any doubts about the above link or the author? well heres another... Smedley Darlington Butler (July 30, 1881 – June 21, 1940), nicknamed "The Fighting Quaker" and "Old Gimlet Eye", was a Major General in the U.S. Marine Corps, and at the time of his death the most decorated Marine in U.S. history. quote: "I spent 33 years and four months in active military service and during that period I spent most of my time as a high class muscle man for Big Business, for Wall Street and the bankers. In short, I was a racketeer, a gangster for capitalism. I helped make Mexico and especially Tampico safe for American oil interests in 1914. I helped make Haiti and Cuba a decent place for the National City Bank boys to collect revenues in. I helped in the raping of half a dozen Central American republics for the benefit of Wall Street. I helped purify Nicaragua for the International Banking House of Brown Brothers in 1902-1912. I brought light to the Dominican Republic for the American sugar interests in 1916. I helped make Honduras right for the American fruit companies in 1903. In China in 1927 I helped see to it that Standard Oil went on its way unmolested. Looking back on it, I might have given Al Capone a few hints. The best he could do was to operate his racket in three districts. I operated on three continents." "Butler's particular contribution was his recantation, denouncing war on moral grounds after having been a warrior hero and spending most of his life as a military insider. The theme remained vigorously patriotic and nationalistic, decrying imperialism as a disgrace rooted in the greed of a privileged few."

The world is controlled by a few banking families who have intermarried and control more than half of the wealth of the world.
It is true that there are many easy to families, with wealth and power spread throughout the world. They try their best, to control the money flow and help themselves to profits along the way. All the best ... Ron
