Bush's Eurasian "Chess Game" has no endgame in sight

America's Geopolitical Nightmare and Eurasian Strategic Energy Arrangements

by F. William Engdahl May 7, 2006 GlobalResearch.ca

"The move by Bolivian President Evo Morales, following meetings with Velezuela’s Hugo Chavez and Fidel Castro, to assert national control over oil and gas resources is only the latest demonstration of the decline in US power projection." says Engdahl.

.. which started when Castro visited Iran (his 1st visit) , Syria and Libya in May 2001.Agence France-Presse reported that Castro, in an apocalyptic speech at Teheran University on May 10, told his Muslim audience in Iran: "America is weak. I have studied its weaknesses from very close by. I tell you, the imperialist king will finally fall." President Khatami had previously paid an official visit to Havana in September 2000 after the Opec summit in Venezuela.


At the same time a Cuban delegation visiting Moscow to procure additional funding for the Russia's electronic listening station at Lourdes near Havana was dismissed with the announcement that instead the listening post would be closed. Putin announced this at the Shanghai econonomic summit in October to President Bush.(Pic with Syria's Assad)

Later 3 Afghani nationals, allegedly al-Qaeda members were caught trying to deposit US $2 million in a bank in the Cayman Islands in August 2001 were found to have entered the British colony on a commercial flight from Cuba using counterfeit Pakistani passports. British authorities who arrested the three men believe that they were handling drug proceeds laundered in Havana.

Tours through radical Islamic states by Castro and his close Venezuelan ally, President Hugo Chavez, followed in 2001.

Not only were statements by both leaders in their Middle Eastern trips laced with Anti-American rhetoric, but Chavez quite candidly told reporters that his talks with Saddam Hussein and heads of other oil-producing states involved the creation of a "new anti-imperialist axis" against Western industrialized economies.(Pic with Gadaffi -who seems well in with the US currently)

The Engdahl report is essential reading if you wish to untangle Z, Brezinki's "Chess Game" that the US have been playing out on Russia's Souther and Eastern regions and the Middle East.... and the complete and utter fucking disaster it has been.

The silence over the declared Chavezian "new anti-imperialist axis" and the elderly but nonetheless energetic Castro's uncharacteristic interests in meddling in the Middle East seem rarely to surface in the White House rhetoric... perhaps they don't threaten that bit of the Middle East to the East of Haifa.
