As the old guy, everything old is new again

War for Energy has been going on since caveman days

War for oil in the Middle East has been going on for at least a century and shows no signs of abating. If Europe (Germany) and Asia (Japan) had naturally occurring oil WW II might not been the world war it was.

We all understand that, Cheese. What's alarming is that we're losing the current energy war (my opinion). However, I may be wrong because I admit I can't yet wrap my head around all the players and all the geopolitical moves, so if someone can tell me I'm wrong with well thought out information then I'll listen!

Is it bad that I don't care? Running the world is crushing us with uncontrollable debt. I'd just assume someone else do it.

The players 100 years ago were Merica and Russia. Pretty sure it is still the same no matter who the pawns are, they still control the chess board

In 1846 the first oil well was drilled in Baku (Russia)
In 1857 the first oil well was drilled in Titusville (Merica)

Lots of small moves since, but going back to this makes it easier to understand

If it helps, divide the globe into 3 parts and who it fuels

South Seas = Asia
Middle East = Europe
New World = Merica

Except the lines were drawn around WWI and Churchill's desire to move the English Navy from coal to oil.

See what I mean about everything old is new again.

What's unfortunate is the old oil tycoons will reap war and have the future children pay for it as they grab for the last billion dollars with their dying hands as they slip into the grave.

In my perfect world we'd all come together and build up world economy with new forms of energy and all the products which use it / are made from it etc.

I'm pro-military as a defense not as a tool for so called free-trade and out of control corporations.

These leaders today were all children once playing games together on the playgrounds. It's saddening how life changes people.
