International Conflict, Western World Threats and Geopolitical Intelligence
Dubai recently announced its partnership with China in the creation of a billion dollar investment fund. Saudi commitment to double oil exports to China by 2010. These two announcements exemplify China’s Middle East energy strategy: to entrench itself economically in the region, even at a loss, so as to obtain the political leverage required to secure access to oil and gas.

Oil Wars: Chinese Corp. pt.2/5 The oil stocks and offshore reserves obviously share one thing in common, their vicinity to the sea this is an asset when one considers the easy of importations and exportations. It is also a weakness because it is exposed to foreign encounters. The Taiwanese security question is exposed, how long could China sustain a cross-straight assault? All three of the stock oil bases are within range of Taiwanese cruse missile attacks thus as the question of oil acquisition is presented the question of energy security follows close behind. China's oil output is far lower than its domestic need due to low oil resources. It's growing economy demands greater and greater amounts of crude oil every year. In 2004, China had to import 100 million tons of crude oil in order to supply its energy demand,...

Suicide bombing targets Chinese in Hub, Pakistan Chinese construction workers escape unscathed but at least 30 Pakistanis die in attack near Karachi's port July 18, 2007: Pakistan is promising to step up security in the wake of recent violence aimed at Chinese nationals as China increases its economic and military ties with the Musharraf government. Today, a convoy of Chinese construction workers was attacked as it made its way out of the region, known as Baluchistan in southwest Pakistan. Fears for their safety grew after three Chinese workers were killed in northern Pakistan near Peshawar on July 8. Several Chinese women were also kidnapped and later released by Islamic militants during Islamabad's Red Mosque crisis. An estimated 2-3000 Chinese work in Pakistan as the two countries forge strong links under a free trade agreement.... Tags: bombing, news, pakistan, raw, suicide, therealnews |

The Global Great Game Grand explanations of how to understand the complex twenty-first century world have all fallen short-until now. In The Second World: Empires and Influence in the New Global Order, Parag Khanna shows how America's dominant moment has quickly been replaced by a geopolitical marketplace where the European Union and China compete with the U.S. to shape world order on their own terms.The primary battlefield is the Second World, regions lying between the three leading empires and the third world: Eastern Europe, Central Asia, Latin America, the Middle East, and East Asia. Second World countries could rise into the first world or fall into the third-their future is precarious and uncertain, but their resources are the critical assets for the three expanding superpowers. Whoever dominates the... Tags: China, East, Energy, Europe, Hegemony, Influence, Middle, Oil, States, Superpower, Trade, United |

Africa: America's Next Oil Target (1/5) As world oil reserves decline, the US and other world powers are competing for African oil. US energy and foreign policies have now merged: they militarize choke points and oil-producing countries that can be loyal to the US. Currently [2005], 14% of US oil comes from Africa, while experts predict that America's own national oil supply will run out in eight years. Thus securing an energy supply is a top strategic priority in an oil-hungry world, which explains the sudden interest from America, Europe, China and Japan for Africa. Under the guise of the wars against 'terror' and 'poverty' the US is setting up military bases in West Africa and planning for a possible conflict with Europe and China.

China's Involvement in Iran Nuclear Crisis China's Involvement in Iran Nuclear Crisis Israeli expert analyses China's involvement in the Iranian nuclear crisis Last week, Iranian leader Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said that Iran now has 3,000 centrifuges for enriching uranium, an announcement that once again put the Iranian nuclear issue back in world media headlines. The U.S. and many other Western nations are threatening economic sanctions to pressure Iran to stop its nuclear program. But despite this, there are two big nations that want to take a more lenient approach. Our Israeli team has more. Although the UN Security Council ordered Iran to suspend its uranium enrichment activity, Iran still has important political allies. These allies are opposing the international community's call for sanctions. Professor Barry Rubin from... Tags: China, East, Iran, Israel, Kossovo, Middle, Nuclear, Oil, Relations, Taiwan |

Energy And Oil -- Stock Trading Industry Analysis (24) Energy And Oil Stock Market Industry Analysis (24) In discussing energy, I wish to bring out the following basic facts that we are experiencing now regarding the future of oil and other alternatives: A Saudi Oil Minister once told the OPEC members, The stone age ended not because we ran out of stones. An oil expert once said thoughtfully, The solution to high oil prices is, ironically, high oil prices. Many experts point out that the Middle East countries are burdened by the oil curse. The rest of the world is no different. Our curse is one of addictive consumption while theirs is single-industry production. Their economies cater to our addiction. We are willing to pay, even with blood. The dramatic rise in oil prices in recent years is mainly due to long-range demands from China...

US economy and policy is related to oil prices. Please keep all comments and debates civil, no vulgarities, ECT... I think the majority of the problem is with the Democrats, however I consider Bush and many of the current so-called Republicans to be such watered-down Republicans that they are practically Democrats. Though I think the preponderance of the blame belongs to the Democrats, the Republicans have compromised and watered-down their principles so much that I blame both parties. It is primarily the Liberals that are making it hard because they demonize "big oil". As a result we haven't been drilling for oil or working on our refining capacity. On the contrary, Congress has kept us from drilling and has discouraged big business from seeking out new oil. Congress also has been pushing environmental laws that discourage drilling...

If The Oil Runs Out : 1 of 6 The demand for energy has risen relentlessly over the last 150 years in line with industrial development and population growth. And as economies of developing countries like China and India continue to grow, it is predicted demand will rise by a further 50% by 2030. President Bush has already warned the United States that it is too reliant on oil, often from "unstable" countries, and that it must find alternatives. Geologists are searching in Arctic Alaska, around the Falkland Islands and under the oceans for the last remaining sizeable reserves of oil. But what will happen if the fuel crisis is not resolved? ____________________ Blending drama and documentary, the IF series returns with a film investigating a scenario many experts fear will come true.
