U.S. OIL PRODUCTION AND KHASHOGGI DEATH: What Could Happen

Posted on 10/12/2018 7:43:09 AM PDT by DIRTYSECRET

They're really asking for this time with this murder/disappearance. Saudi Arabia could implode with the entire royal family going the way of the Tsar. Worst case scenario is the entire country shuts off ALL it's oil production. Then what? The entire world would be in chaos and the U.S. would not be able to make up the difference. At least Trump is putting us in the best possible position with our production. In some ways it would be like Katrina, a blessing in disguise. You gotta admit with all those haters in that part of the world keeping the lid on is wishful thinking. Could it happen? The Shah once had 'total control'.

That won’t happen.

For me, worst case scenario is that the Earth gets lapped up in a solar flare. Anything less than that is gravy. :)

Even the US has a problem with it. Something both Democrats and Republicans can agree on.

Jimmy Carter completely abandoned the Shah. You will never see that happen with Saudi Arabia.

Looks like this journalist was killed and dismembered, and his parts carried out of the embassy.

That’s their problem, not ours...

Oh here we go. Obama didn’t lift a friggin finger for any journalist getting their heads chopped off... He sat there with his finger in his butt.

The Saudis are immune to repercussion to their behavior as long as they have one hand on the oil tap. Murder? Meh.

Khashoggi will not be writing fake news about MBS any more. That’s for sure.

Like the Doomsday Machine of the 1950s, (when the whole Soviet Union was surrounded by a series of nuclear tripwires, it was what the Cuban Missile Crisis was about), SA has all their oil production facilities mined with dirty bomb materials, cesium or some-such, if SA is ever invaded, this little doomsday machine will go off automatically.

Mark your posts Vanity,please. You are allowed commentary, even from naive uninformed perspective.

The King of the House of Saud has Alzheimers. The Crown Prince bin Salman is running the country and opening the country up to more western ideas (for Saudis). Including getting rid of the Madrassah support which has created the Muslim Brotherhood and anti-royal family cabal (of which Kashoggi, notably working for the counter-intel see eye A owned mouthpiece the WaPo, is a member. Look it up—Bezos got 600 MILL US Fed/black money from them— a govt. agency unto its own). Anyone who believes the Saudis allowed a guy into their embassy in Turkey intending to kill him, and NOT remove his Apple recording/connected watch— has no idea about the Saudi intel apparat.

The entire message being concocted is being done by the leftover deep staters who no longer have the Talwaleed money coming to them (the ABC, WaPo, NYSlimes intel mouthpieces), and the elements of Erdogan’s cooperating with them. The “team” btw could very well have been Mossad with Saudi cover.

And, no- the Saudi oil will not be shut down, no matter how much the Iranian mullahs and the clintons would like it to do so. Bye.

But unlike SA, fake news media journalists here don't get Khashoggi'ed for writing fake news, no matter how much they deserve it. We are still a nation of laws.

Leftover deep staters. Yeah right. The Shah was trying to open his country to the west. Sold oil to Israel. The mullahs took the country back 700 years. All it took was 100k followers with guns. Think it couldn’t happen in the kingdom? Don’t be so naive. The folks in that country would have elected Osama if they could.

Some animals are more equal than others. I'm pretty sure we won't see embargoes and the like applied to the Saudis by the US government over behaviors that would beget global pressure for most other sh!thole country's dictators. I can't see Trump doing that a month after he asked them to increase production to save his economy.

> “Bezos got 600 MILL US Fed/black money from them—”

Here’s the story on the Bezos bailout.

First Bezos was adopted as a kid into a CIA family. His father was CIA. When you’re a CIA kid, you’re in the family and you grow up thinking you’re global ruling class.

I will delineate two CIAs just as there are two FBIs. There is the CIA under the CIA Director and there is the global CIA of agents, contractors, affiliates of Five Eyes, etc. US CIA and Global CIA and the Global CIA is where we have the Brennan spawned CIA renegades who are big, big troublemakers and have no allegiance to the United States. The problem is that a contingent of CIA became globalists and looked at the USA as just another country/administration with outdated governance based on an old set of rules under a dysfunctional ‘constitution’.

Adding to and enabling this path of rogue independence, actually a path of betrayal, was central banking where dark money could be created from computers and placed in thousands of accounts worldwide. In short, the electronic banking era ushered in a development of global funding that created a global syndicate with Global CIA as enforcers for central bankers.

Bezos was placed at the DE Shaw Group in Manhattan https://www.deshaw.com to be groomed for investment banking. There is a close connection of CIA of certain Wall St. investment bankers and hedge funds. He was always ‘in the family’.

Bezos was instructed to develop online sales by taking a handful of persons to start Amazon in 1994. Amazon never made a full-year profit until 2011 and that profit was meager and cooked. Once the profit was booked, CIA placed fund managers were instructed to invest in Amazon causing its stock price to soar making Bezos another instant billionaire. Bezos always knew who and what was behind his elevation. The CIA arranged to award him a contract for ‘cloud services’ of $600 million but it was more than that. The contract came with side instructions to buy the nearly bankrupt WAPO for $120 million to be used as a global CIA propaganda outlet.

Today, Bezos is worth more than $100 billion in Wall St. paper. He never earned it. It was all contrived.

Has Amazon done a good job in the online retail space? Yes.

But they were given advantages that other retailers did not have, That’s the problem. When a retailer is backed by a global CIA with virtually limitless funds, the notion of free-market competition becomes a farce.

A) We don't know that the dude is dead.

B) If the dude is dead, we don't know who did it.

C) The number of parties involved who have an axe to grind is 100%. Which means the list of possible perps is fairly long.

So before we go off half-cocked, here's hoping we're keeping our powder dry until we have a decent handle on WTH is going on.

Just a thought. 😄

Thank you for the backgrounder. knew some of it. just like Christine Ford’s daddy was cia and still is a contractor for security for the same deep stater entitled ones... like Strzok and others.

It should be interesting to watch the efforts of clintoonians who used these same mouthpieces, and hitlery who sat on the BOD of Walmart— use WalMart to break up Amazon— anti-trust and the like. Amazon is creating a mockery of a “free market” by it’s globalist cabal helping it. WalMart considers them major pains in the a@@, who have slave labor (which is a laugh considering wally world) workers and very few bricks and mortar stores.
