Could fluoridation of the water supply be starting to take effect?

1. Just like Larry "pull it" Silverstein obtaining a lease on the WTC 40 days before the planes hit and the number of stock puts on the aircraft used jumped dramatically just before 9/11, it is very possible that the price of oil futures is jumping dramatically because . . .

. . . big players have gotten inside information that an attack on Iran is imminent and a sealed deal.


2. Some big players have inside information that an oil supply bombshell is about to drop. For example, it's not beyond the pale that insiders know that Saudi and/or Russian and/or ------ production will visibly and dramatically decline in, say, 2 months. Because, as we all know, when KSA starts to decline, then the other side of the argument loses, with no dissent.

Not saying that either of these are likely, just that, while I hope the price spike is being driven by Peak Oil, it is not impossible that there is something big behind the scenes that we haven't heard.

I'm shocked...SHOCKED that the government could be hiding the truth from the people.

I'm not buying it. I checked the open interest on deep out-of-the-money call options on USO as well as some of the major bigoils. Very little open interest.

(This is analogous to buying puts on the airlines prior to 911; anticipation the stock will plummet.)

If insiders "knew" oil prices were going to the stratosphere, you'd think somebody would be preparing to cash in on it. I don't see it.

This is not the kind of truth governments hide. The daily shitwork is pretty mundane, like records of ministerial expenses.

Phil Flynn at 321 energy thinks it's because somebody had inside info on the inventory numbers that were coming out on Wednesday:

I don't know. The runup was really dramatic. It seems like something was driving it that was sudden, like post hurricane Katrina.

I still haven't heard a satisfactory explanation for this price spike.

I say tin foil is becoming structural steel related to the following:

1) US defaulting on debt (via inflation)

2) An attack on Iran as a means to collapse the global economy and throw the world into chaos...

3) The 3-5 year "adjustment" of ARMs (that began in 02/03) was timed to coincide with PO.

4) The Amero is looking more and more like it will replace the dollar.

5) The NAU is looking more and more like it will become the next governmental architectural framework as the world is thrown into economic collapse.

6) Martial law is all but a certainty.

7) All banks will be consolidated into one - my guess is JP Morgan.

I expect all of these to take form within 6-12 months.


Big Tex - I intentionally left out the suspension of elections as that is still a stretch to even the most doomerish on this site.

I have also elected not to include Nibiru.

That I will save for the "I told you so".

So who has been converted?
