Pakistan to help Saudi Arabia go nuclear

The latest Ziocon rumor is that Riyadh is planning to construct 16 nuclear plants at the cost of $300 billion during the next 20 years. There are not many idiots who will believe that Saudi ‘royals’ are arming themselves to ‘wipe off Israel from map’. In the past, Riyadh has purchased $300 billion armament from the US, Britain and Russia to protect US-Israeli interests in the region and further suppress their subjects.

However, the joke is that Saudis are also being helped by the same Israel-hating Pakistan which transferred nuclear technology to Iran and N. Korea in the recent past. Question is why the Saudi ‘royal’ would ask for Pakistan’s help to counter Iran’s phony nuclear bomb threat when Riyadh’s patron-in-chief, the US is a nuclear reactor producer and Pakistan is not?

Furthermore, Pakistan’s western puppet, President Asif Zardari, a Shia, is much closer to Tehran than Riyadh. In recent months, he has visited Qom twice to pay his respect to Ayatullah Khamenie, the Spiritual leader of Iranian nation against Riyadh’s objection.

The western leaders and media know very well how to squeeze money from Saudi ‘royals’. After frustated by Pakistan-Iran increasingly closer relationship in oil/gas sector (IPI) and other fields – Riyadh has been sucked-in for another $60 billion arm deal with United States which under Israeli pressure refuses to impart nuclear technology to Riyadh. Instead, Tel Aviv has given its blessing for Washington to sell 84 US-built F-15 combat aircraft and an upgrade of 70 existing Saudi F-15s. The arms deal is also said to include an upgrade of the Saudi Patriot short-range missile defense in favor of a system to defend against higher-flying, medium-range ballistic missiles. Interestingly, none of the existing F15s is piloted by a Saudi citizen.

In February 2011 – The Washington Post had reported that Pakistan quietly become the world’s fifth largest nuclear power, surpassing both Britain and France. According to my ‘Nuke Handbook’ – the international nuke stockpiles go like this - Russia (11,000 nukes), the US (9,000 nukes), Israel (240-400 nukes), France (300 nukes), China (240 nukes), Britain (225 nukes), India (90-110 nukes), Pakistan (70-90 nukes) and N. Korea (4-7 nukes). In addition, NATO bases in Turkey, Belgium, Germany, Italy and Netherlands have nuclear bombs stored there.

Now, the above WP count should give you an idea, how some idiot came up with the ‘Six Million Died’ numbers!

Afeef Khan writing for the Media Monitors Network (July 30, 2011) said: “Pakistan needs to be extra careful, at home as well as in its diplomatic overtures to its neighbors. The Israelis will not countenance Washington “giving” Saudi Arabia any kind of nuclear technology, not the least after Obama’s obsequious call for a nuclear-free world. The new calculation in Washington is that Pakistan’s nuclear arsenal would be far safer in Saudi hands — a lifelong friend of Tel Aviv and Washington, and a lifelong obstacle to Islamic self-determination. If Pakistan willingly or surreptitiously gives the Saudis any nuclear capability after the Saudis hang a suite of carrots in front of it to relieve it of its economic and endemic energy problems, then Pakistan will be immediately ravaged by the “international community” as the king of rogue nations.”

US behind Iran-India trade stand-off

India imports 12% of its national oil consumption from the Islamic Republic. Currently India owes Iran $8 billion in back payments. Tehran has warned New Delhi that if the later failed to pay at least 50% of the amount it owes to Iran – Tehran will be forced to stop oil supply to India.

Indian Communist Party (CPI) general secretary Parakash Karat has claimed in an article published in the latest edition of party organ People’s Democracy that Indian government succumbed to US pressure to curtail its trading and commercial links with Iran. Karat said India was abiding by not just the UNSC sanctions but also the “illegal and unilateral” coercive measures imposed by the US and the EU. Consequently, the Reserve Bank of India last December disallowed all trade-related payments to Iran through the Asian Clearing Union. This mechanism had been being used for a long time to make payments to Iran. Once this was stopped, the problem arose of how to make the payments.

According to the Journal of Energy Security, Islamic Republic has world’s fourth-largest reserve of oil and second-largest reserve of gas after Russia. Iran’s geographic proximity makes it very attractive economic supplier for India’s large and growing energy demand. The India-Iran bilateral ties in the energy field were going smoothly until US-Israel blackmailed New Delhi by relaxing sanction on later’s nuclear program and putting political pressure on Dr. Manmohan Singh’s government via Hindutva BJP and other anti-Muslim groups which has very close relation with Tel Aviv. India’s famous author and peace activist, Arundhati Roy, has compared her country with Israel as an anti-Muslim colonial power.

India’s past history in India-Iran oil trade has convinced Tehran that India cannot be taken as a reliable customer in energy sector. For example, it was India which floated the idea of building a gas pipeline between Iran and India through Pakistan (IPI) in the 1980s. The proposed pipeline from the giant South Pars gasfield in Persian Gulf with 1,036 km passing through Pakistani territory will be able to carry 90 million standard cubic meter per day of gas at the cost of $7 billion. For over a decade, India has been delaying the project on lame excuses of Iran’s price formula (between $30-$70 range based on Japanese Crude Cocktail price) and the transporation tariff cost demanded by Islamabad.

From the very begining, US-Israel have been against the IPI project for two reasons. They wanted the TAPI pipeline, and wanted the Islamic Republic outside the pipeline grid. Despite Washington’s threats, last year, Pakistan signed the contract with Iran for the construction of a 900-kilometre-long gas pipeline, from Asalooyeh in Southern Iran and Iranshahr near the border with Pakistan which will transport 750 million cubic feet a day of gas from Iran to Pakistan for the next 25 years to generate 4,000 MW of electricity.

India doesn’t have the gutts to defy the US-Israel axis of evil.

China, last year, showed its willingness to join the venture if India bows out. Islamabad on its part will prefer China, its reliable friend for over five decades, over India, an enemy Islamabad fought three major wars with and which with the help of US-Israel broke-up Pakistan into Bangladesh.

“For both Iran and Pakistan the pipeline project would be highly beneficial. Iran sees in the pipeline not only an economic lifeline at a time when the US and its European allies are trying to weaken it economically but also an opportunity, should the pipeline be extended to either India or China, to create an unbreakable long term political and economic dependence of billions of Chinese and Indian customers on its gas. Pakistan, for its part, views the pipeline as the solution to its energy security challenge. Pakistan’s domestic gas production is falling and its import dependence is growing by leaps and bounds. By connecting itself with the world’s second largest gas reserve, Pakistan would guarantee reliable supply for decades to come. If the pipeline were to be extended to India it could also be an instrument for stability in the often tense Pakistan-India relations. Under any scenario of pipeline expansion which makes Pakistan a transit state Islamabad stands to gain from transit fees hundreds of millions of dollars every year,” wrote Gal Luft in the Journal of Energy Security, June 18, 2009.

The US-Israel sponsored UNSC resolution 1929 mainly targeted Iran’s oil industry which western ZOGs believe Iran’s soft belly as 50% of Iran’s foreign exchange earnings come from it. With all those huge oil and gas reserves – Tehran still imports 20-25% of it refined oil. In order to make the country self-sufficient in energy, Ahmadinejad has ordered construction of seven new refineries and upgrading of the existing refineries. According to the Economic Intelligence Unit report released in April 2011 – Iran gasoline production will climb to 72 million liters per day by 2012. The report added that Iran gasoline production will yield a surplus of about 20 million liters per day for export once the country reaches production capacity of 42 million liters per day in 2012.

India is looking toward Saudi Arabia as Iranian replacement. However, the import of Saudi oil via tankers has a problem. Saudi oil supply certainly will be disrupted if US-Israeli war comes to Iran by Tehran’s blockade of Strait of Hormuz.

Ziocons propaganda outlet, Bloomberg’ has reported that US-EU sanctions while hurting Western countries and India, had made both China and Russia the big winners in Iranian energy sector. There are indications that US-Israel-EU plan to cripple Iranian economy has totally failed. “We have seen a real quick drop-off in imports into Iran. They are down significantly, by over half, from where they were a few months ago,” said Jamie Webster, a researcher at PFC Energy, a Washington-based consulting firm.

Israel and the ‘Jewish Spring’

While the Zionist-controlled media is bending backward to cover Israel’s failed regime change in Norway and the so-called ‘Arab Spring’ being ushered by mass protests in Egypt, Syria, Tunis, Bahrain, Yemen and Libya – there is no mention of mass protests being held in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem.

Tens of thousands of protesters have taken to streets in response to Benji Netanyahu’s economic policies which has helped to increase disparity among Jewish citizens.

Various studies show it, including the latest ones saying 1.77 million (out of total Jewish population of 4.7 million) Israelis are poor. About 850,000 children live in poverty. As a result, 75% of those affected miss meals, a 21% increase from 2009. Moreover, 83% of poor children lack proper dental care, most getting none. Some beg for money. Others steal to eat.

These figures put Zionist entity worse than the war-torn third world African nation of Somalia – where according to a report by the UN published last month, one in three children in South Somalia suffers from malnutrition. While Somalian are living under western war and sanctions – Israeli Jews receive 46% of total annual USAID plus $3 billion annual military aid.

Last Saturday, 40,000 mainly young people marched from the tent city on Rothschild Boulevard towards the Tel Aviv Museum in the biggest political rally seen in years. They chanted slogans such as “Proper housing, Legitimate prices”, “The power is with the citizen”, and “This generation demands housing”. Some of the marchers demanded Netanyahu’s resignation.

Since the 1993 Oslo Accords, successive governments—Labour, Likud or Kadima—encouraged Israelis to move to the settlements in the West Bank, Gaza and the Golan Heights, rather than build in Israel. This led to a shortage of new affordable housing in the outlying areas and an increase in prices and rent. The recent property bubble has seen house prices in the prime areas rocket.

Within the Tel Aviv area, only three percent of the construction over the last decade was public housing. Not one public housing unit was built between 2006 and 2009.

Such was the scale of support for the protests that Netanyahu was forced to cancel his visit to Poland earlier this week. On Tuesday, Netanyahu was forced to acknowledge that the protests were “justified” and to promise reforms and housing construction to help young marrieds, military veterans, students and the homeless.

The protests are fuelled by the desperate situation facing millions of Israelis, while social inequality has reached unprecedented levels. The Jerusalem Post called the housing protest just a “drop in the sea of injustices” that also included rising food prices, the cost of living and the minimum wage. A recent report published by Adva, “Israel in a nutshell”, confirms that this crisis is systemic.

Israel is a predominantly low-wage economy, with 75 percent of workers earning $1,700 or less a month. Wages have fallen from 68 percent of national income in 2000 to 63 percent in 2010. This is equivalent to the loss of NIS 976 a month.

Sixteen of the world’s billionaires are Israelis who control Israel’s economy and have major stocks in the Wall Street. The top executives in the 25 largest corporations were paid more than 90 times the average wage in 2010.

Israel’s Palestinians are worse off still. Urban Israeli Palestinians earn about 30 percent less than their Mizrahi and 50 percent less their Ashkenazi counterparts. The Bedouins in the south are even worse off, particularly those living in the so-called “unrecognized” villages that have no access roads, no municipal infrastructure, and no governmental services like education.

The ultra-orthodox Jews, the Haredim, have the highest rate of poverty, largely because so few work, living off state subsidies for those enrolled in religious educational institutions. Other impoverished groups include immigrants from the former Soviet Union and Ethiopia, who number about 100,000.

Finally, there are 300,000 migrant workers brought in to replace Palestinian labour—Filipino females caring for the elderly, Chinese and Romanians working in construction, and Africans working in the hospitality sector. Government inspectors turn a blind eye to unscrupulous employers who ignore Israel’s minimal labour laws.

It looks like the Rothschild Boulevard will soon be renamed ‘Tahrir Square‘.
