I've been reading Larry Everest' Oil Power Empire http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1567512461/qid=1087249010/sr=ka-1/ref=pd_ka_1/104-5010526-7795953.
I would like to think that the book is packed full of lies and deceit however with the strong bibliography at the end of the book I'm afraid the ideas presented are pretty close to true. It chronicles the extent of Western involvement in the Mid East, especially by Briton and the USA from the early 1900s and the methods used to control the region. Iran recently told the world community that it "must accept a nuclear Iran". Needless to say the world probably won't and, the US most certainly will not. Iran is due to become an unwilling client state soon, as to Russia, I can only hope "we all just get along".

My biggest problem with Larry in a personal sense is his apparent stand for socialism. His affiliation with http://www.rwor.org/home-e.htm has a tendency to discredit his work from my standpoint.

Matt, I am pretty sure I won't be back at college in the fall. I have really hit the books as of late on oil depletion. I also bought "The Party is Over". and read the "Letter From the Future". I dont see the need to waste more money at college....worst case I do have around 50 credits under my belt if things go well. I can also go back.
I am looking into this fall some classes at the vocational school. I am interested in horticulture.
Thanks for the reply.
John
