Greg Palast Uncovers the 'Armed Madhouse' of the Bush Reign
I was able to obtain a document. That's why we have all these illustrations in the book - because I want people to actually see these things. I got a document from inside the Department of Energy, which says that Venezuela - in other words, Hugo Chavez - has more oil than Saudi Arabia, and that's a real shake-up. . . . That's a disaster for George Bush because - and that’s why I have that chapter called "The Assassination of Hugo Chavez". . . . I showed the chart to Chavez himself last month in Caracas, and he said, "That's absolutely right. And we're going to demand that OPEC recognize Venezuela, not Saudi Arabia, as the leader." That's big, bad news for the Bush House of Saud cartel because you have to understand that King Abdullah will always sell us his oil. He’ll never cut it off. . . . But that's not the most important point here. Abdullah sends back his oil earnings. After he takes his slice and gives his slice to Exxon, the remainder goes back to the United States in the form of Treasury Bill purchases. They would never lend a dime to their Muslim brothers. They just lend it back to George to fund his oil wars and his tax cuts. And that’s the game. Abdullah lends us back the petro-dollars, and we lend him the 82nd Airborne to stay in business.
