Global Research’s article says that this sanction will “…deliver the ultimate death blow to Iran's ability to participate in the international banking system…What it really means is that the US, again through FinCEN, has declared two acts of war: one against Iran's banks and one against any financial institution anywhere in the world that tries to do business with an Iranian bank.” Although Myanmar’s oil output is small (9,500 barrels a day), the oil industry believes that there are billions of untapped reserves below Myanmar’s soil and sea. By its structure, western capitalism constantly needs new “markets” to keep itself afloat. Predatorial and without conscience, the Lords of the “Free Market” either wait like vultures in the treetops for wounded and weak prey or they wait “in the cue to gain access to what may be substantial oil reserves in that fractured country.” However they do it, it seems that vampire capitalists are about to rush in on crisis wrought Myanmar and plunder it like they’ve done to countless other countries when they were in severe shock.

I left America seven years ago because I wasn't going to become a victim of the hidden holocaust (http://hiddenmurder.blogspot.com) Industry was downsizing so society was, too. I earned four university degrees to become one of the legions of workers that industry finds redundant and American society finds as "useless eaters." Born from a lower tier of society, all I ever did was live in the gutter in America! On August 29, 1999 at 11:20 CST, my husband smothered me with a pillow. He was angry with me because I couldn't get a job when all the newscasts from the Twin Cities kept pronouncing "stories" that there were more jobs than employees to fill them. I and my educated friends couldn't find those jobs. Years later, it turned out to be propaganda to shred social safety nets, force wages down and hide the other dark sides of the "free market." When I was smothered, I had an "out of body" Spiritual Journey that lasted a long time and it changed me forever.
