Energy wars and the destabilization of Syria- Geopolitics at it's worst http://pennyforyourthoughts2.blogspot.com/2011/07/energy-wars-and-destabilization-of.html

So your going to ask, what the heck is so important about Syria? Well in amongst the many reasons I have given you, click the Syria label below, I will cite just one reason- Assad's "Four Seas Strategy" Damascus converges with China http://pennyforyourthoughts2.blogspot.com/2011/06/assads-four-seas-strategy-damascus.html This strategy would see Syrian interests aligned with those of China, Russia and Iran.But there is more. And this will connect the dots back to the two "Israeli" oilfields I mentioned yesterday.

Syria is the central piece of two important energy corridors. The first links Turkey and the Caspian to Israel and the Red Sea and the second links Iraq to the Mediterranean.The surrender of Syria would mean that Washington and its allies would control these energy routes.It would also mean that the large natural gas fields off the Lebanese and Syrian coastline in the Eastern Mediterranean would be out of reach for China and instead go to the E.U., Israel, and Washington.

There is the connection. This is a shift of oil power to Israel instead of Syria. A denial of resources to China.An ability to provide Europe and shout out the Russian pipeline, which is already well ahead of the Washington backed one in natural gas and construction. The Washington approved pipeline, and it's competitor are covered in this post Nabucco and Southstream. Competing Pipelines/Strategic Interests and a curiosity http://pennyforyourthoughts2.blogspot.com/2011/06/nabucco-and-southstream-competing.html

Yesterday I began to really understand the importance of Syria in the whole geopolitical 'game'.For Russia, this is more then just the port at Tartus, though that is undeniably important.This is about them retaining an important piece of "the pie" so to speak.For China, this is access or denial of much needed resources. Both nations could find themselves hostage to the whims of the NATO allies. I note the other day Russia was saying they still intend to continue on with arms sales to Syria.Russian arms shipments to Syria are legal, beneficial to regional stability, and will continue as planned, a senior Kremlin official said in a Tuesday interview. http://www.monstersandcritics.com/news/europe/news/article_1649306.php/Russia-All-arms-shipments-to-Syria-legal-will-continue

If one considers the importance of pipeline politics in the great game, then Russia continuing to arm Syria combined with the refusal to take part in the charade at the UN, and the importance of the Tartus port one realizes just what is at stake here....If one considers the importance of pipeline politics in the great game, then Russia continuing to arm Syria combined with the refusal to take part in the charade at the UN, and the importance of the Tartus port one realizes just what is at stake here....As aside, just my own thought.. This puts to lie the whole charade of the free markets and capitalism.

Because if there was an reality to that scam at all the free market would reign and people/countries would just build pipelines out of necessity to provide a service at a fair price to whomever was the customer.If ever there was a better example of out and out fascistic maneuvers and fascism in general, I have not seen it.By fascism I am talking about the collusion of government and business, not having the best interests of the people in mind.To pick the pockets of humanity via taxes to pay for these sick twisted games.Worse then that using and abusing the people of the planet as soldiers to fight and defend corporate and geopolitical interests. Far worse still, is the brainwashing employed to get humans to join in these wars of conquest.
