" 1. Within a few years of oil production hitting a plateau, the US would be engaged in a worldwide war. This war would be focused primarily on Muslim, oil producing nations.


2. Gas prices would hit record highs by summer 2004. This would become a major issue in the 2004 Presidential election.


3. OPEC would cut its production around the same time to hide the fact their oil fields would be in permanent decline.


4. The US would begin passing fascist-style legislation in preparation for the American population's response to the coming oil shocks.

5. The draft would be reinstated to provide soldiers for oil wars."

It's scary how much sense it makes, these are predictions the peak oil community made in
in 1995! This is most likely a problem we will all be facing, what are we going to do? Our leaders have alreayd decided it seems. The energy crisis is going to bring down the west soon, from what I have been reading, our leaders may already be preparing for it secretly."You just witnessed the opening battle of the first war of the 21st century.” This is what Bush said after 9/11, but just exactely what war is this George? Think about it, if you were on the top, you power and money resting upon oil which we now all know will begin to start running out soon, what would you do? Maybe this foney war on terrorism is merely the beggining to these predicted 'energy wars', a means to take away our freedoms so that when the # hits the fan the government have the power over us. I think we should all start waking up to this stuff. . .
