Politics, Power & Energy

In the early 19th century powered machines such as boats, trains etc… were powered by charcoal energy. Later, petroleum had been discovered as a new source of energy and used much more widely. Since then petrol became a symbol, of power and wealth. Therefore the western countries occupied productive countries in the Middle East, North Africa, and so on to get more energy for their growing industries.

After a while and under the population’s resistance to occupation, the occupants were forced to retrieve. But they left corrupted governments, on small states that they divided, to rule on their behalf and to look after their interests. Until now, those governments have western support and protection.

Example: when the president of Libya Colonel Kadafi wanted to by-pass the western’s control, he was considered the number one enemy, and was looked apon as a terrorist. But when Kadafi changed his international policies, all of the western countries ran to get petroleum contracts. Including Paul Martine, when he was the leader of Canada he visited Libya for the same purpose. Regardless that Kadafi was and is a human rights abuser and a killer of his own population. No one cares since he builds bridges to drain his country’s minerals to boast the western industry and economy.

Another example is when the Bush administration took advantage of the 9/11 tragedy to take over the world economically. As a superpower to threaten the rest of the world to either to be with or against the U.S.A. Because of its superior power, no country could stand up against the U.S.A. whether the majority of the country’s people support American politics or not. The U.S.A. first invaded Afghanistan then Iraq to have a hand on the Black sea and Middle East petrol.

The 3rd discovered and most recent type of energy is the nuclear power energy. Nuclear power energy supersedes all other kinds of energy. The industrial countries controlling the nuclear power decided to keep the control within their ‘club’ to avoid other countries from getting access to the new source of energy. And whoever wants to get this source will be stopped by any means. For instance, the nowadays conflict between the west and Iran and North Korea.

Politics, Power & Energy

In the early 19th century powered machines such as boats and trains were powered by charcoal energy. Later, after petroleum had been discovered, it was used a wider source of energy. Since that time, petrol has become a symbol of power and wealth. This gave the Western nations a motivation to occupy oil-rich countries in the Middle East and North Africa to obtain more energy for their growing industries.

After a while and under the populations' resistance to occupation, the occupants were forced to retreat. But they left corrupted governments by dividing large swarths of land into smaller states and installed dictators who would fall behind the Western line or adopt policies favorable to the West at the expense of the oil-rich nations. Those governments for the most part have Western support and protection in exchange for cheap oil supplies.

One example of this political power play occurred in Libya, a country in Northern AfricMF When Libyan President, Colonel Kadafi, wanted to bypass Western control, he was considered one of the West's and in particular the United States' greatest enemy and was indeed looked upon as an Islamic terrorist. But when Kadafi changed his international policies, all of the Western countries ran to get petroleum contracts. This included Paul Martine; when he was leader of Canada, he visited Libya for the same purpose. This despite the proof that Kadafi was and is a human rights abuser and a killer of his own population. No one cares since he builds bridges to drain his country’s minerals to boost Western industry and economies.

Another example is when the Bush administration took advantage of the 9/11 tragedy to take over the world economically. As a superpower, Bush threatened the rest of the world to be either for the U.S. or against the U.S. No middle ground was to be allowed. Because of its superior power, no country could stand up against the U.S whether the majority of the country’s people support American policies - or not. The U.S. first invaded Afghanistan, then Iraq to have a military and economic base on the Black Sea and Middle East petrol supplies.

Nuclear power is the third discovered and most recent type of energy. It supercedes all other kinds of energy. The industrial countries controlling the nuclear power decided to keep the control within their ‘club’ to avoid other countries from getting access to the new source of energy. Further, which ever country wishes to get this source will be stopped by any means. An example of this is the current-day conflict between the West and North Korea and Iran.

After that, petrol became a symbol, of power and wealth. Therefore, western countries occupied oil-producing countries in the Middle East, North Africa, and so on to get more energy for their growing industries.

Some time later and following the population’s resistance to occupation, the occupants were forced to withdraw. But they left corrupted governments, in small states that they divided, to rule on their behalf and to look after their interests. Even now, those governments have western support and protection.


Example: when the president of Libya, Colonel Kadafi, wanted to prevent western control, he was considered a primary enemy and was looked apon as a terrorist. But when Kadafi changed his international policies, all of the western countries rushed to get petroleum contracts. This includes Paul Martine, who, when he was leader of Canada, visited Libya for the same purpose. Regardless of the fact that Kadafi was and is a human rights abuser and a killer of his own population. No one cares that he builds bridges to drain his country’s minerals to boast the western industry and economy.

Another example is when the Bush administration took advantage of the 9/11 tragedy to profit economically. As leader of a superpower, Bush felt able to threaten the rest of the world to either "be with or against" the U.S.A. Because of its superior power, no country could stand up to the U.S.A. whether the majority of the country’s people support American politics or not. The U.S.A. first invaded Afghanistan then Iraq to gain strategic advantages over the Black sea and Middle East petrol.

The most recent type of energy is nuclear power, which supersedes all other kinds of energy. The industrial countries controlling nuclear power decided to keep the control within their ‘club’ to avoid other countries from getting access to the new source of energy. And whoever wants to get this source will be stopped by any means. For instance, the contemporary conflict between the west and Iran and North Korea.

The United Nations, under the superpower countries, decided to have an economic and technologic embargo on Iran, and is still in the process of negotiating with North Korea.
