    Letter to: The Daily Telegraph

    6th October, 2005

    Dear Editor.

    Abandoning Democracy to have Planetary control of oil

    The peace keeping presence of Bush and Blair in Iraq and Afghanistan is made impossible by the existence of warlords in both.

    We chose to ignore the fact that a war lord is an arms dealer's dummy, serving the interests of oil.

    Before we pretend to value democracy for the people with oil, to make them less pugnacious, we should examine our own pretence of democracy and confront the fact that it is impossible to impose on others, that which we condemn for ourselves.

    We live in a financial dictatorship, which uses crude instead of gold, for its currency.

    We tell our Government to create and issue money, by asking private banks to do it on behalf of the Government, by issuing new money as credit.

    We like to ignore the fact that whosoever creates and issues our currency has supreme power over us.

    We abandon Democracy to have Planetary control of oil, so that we can hot up the planet and melt its ice without interference from anyone.

    We do all this by refusing to confront the evil of doing so. The juice that drips out of this mess, its effluent if you like such terms, is trouble and strife for everyone.

    The Telegraph is without doubt the best National Daily on the planet. But the Telegraph will not publish this letter, nor allow any of its journalists to mention this matter.
