A Ping Heard Round The World?]]>Feb 6th 2008 2:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/06/cut-four-undersea-cables-shame-on-you-cut-a-fifth-also-shame/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/06/cut-four-undersea-cables-shame-on-you-cut-a-fifth-also-shame/Feb 6th 2008 10:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/06/cut-four-undersea-cables-shame-on-you-cut-a-fifth-also-shame/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/06/cut-four-undersea-cables-shame-on-you-cut-a-fifth-also-shame/
Iranian Oil Bourse slated to open Feb 19th, originally was going to launch on Kish Island between Feb 1-11. China recently has agreed to buy oil from Iran in Euro, Japan buys oil from Iran in Yen. The Iranian Oil Bourse will be the only market for oil not denomitated in US Petrodollars (NYMEX, IPE).

When demand for anything in our universe goes down (i.e. US currency) the value drops - result is US losing it's status as imperial power.

Why? If countries start buying their oil via IOB (Iranian Oil Bourse) they'll diversify their USD reserves into Euro (i.e. sell USD) demand for USD will drop and value will drop.

Iraq was able to sell their oil in Euro for 6 months before the US invaded - the first order of the day after invasion was reinstating USD Petrodollar as currency of trade for Iraqi oil.

The difference is terrorists go to extremes. Like ants and bees, they will kill themselves to kill others.

Our soldiers will not kill themselves and cause unneccessary and reckless deaths.

Its likely they did something insanely simple, like explode something underwater using some lead and stuffs.]]>Feb 6th 2008 7:35PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/06/cut-four-undersea-cables-shame-on-you-cut-a-fifth-also-shame/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/06/cut-four-undersea-cables-shame-on-you-cut-a-fifth-also-shame/Feb 6th 2008 12:57PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/06/cut-four-undersea-cables-shame-on-you-cut-a-fifth-also-shame/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/06/cut-four-undersea-cables-shame-on-you-cut-a-fifth-also-shame/Feb 6th 2008 2:16PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/06/cut-four-undersea-cables-shame-on-you-cut-a-fifth-also-shame/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/06/cut-four-undersea-cables-shame-on-you-cut-a-fifth-also-shame/

Of course, if it takes someone dozens (hundreds?) of hours to read a book, how could it -ever- compare to 2 hours of cinema?

Dunno.
