Why we’re going to invade Iran

The Iranian Threat: The Bomb or the Euro?

By Dr. Elias Akleh

03/24/05 “AMIN” – – Iran does not pose a threat to the United State because of its nuclear projects, its WMD, or its support to “terrorists organizations” as the American administration is claiming, but in its attempt to re-shape the global economical system by converting it from a petrodollar to a petroeuro system. Such conversion is looked upon as a flagrant declaration of economical war against the US that would flatten the revenues of the American corporations and eventually might cause an economic collapse.

By the way, you’ll find similar editorials before the Iraqi war as well. At least the US is consistent.
