http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F._William_Engdahl
Excerpt:
Frederick William Engdahl (born August 9, 1944)[1] is an American German freelance journalist, historian and economic researcher.[2]

[edit] Biography
Born in Minneapolis, Minnesota, United States, Engdahl is the son of F. William Engdahl, Sr., and Ruth Aalund (b. Rishoff). Engdahl grew up in Texas, and after earning a degree in engineering and jurisprudence from Princeton University in 1966 (BA),[1] and graduate study in comparative economics at the University of Stockholm from 1969 to 1970, he worked as an economist and free-lance journalist in New York and in Europe.
Engdahl began writing about oil politics with the first oil shock in the early 1970s.
His first book was called A Century of War: Anglo-American Oil Politics and the New World Order, and discusses the alleged roles of Zbigniew Brzezinski and George Ball and of the USA in the 1979 overthrow of the Shah of Iran, which was meant to manipulate oil prices and to stop Soviet expansion. Engdahl claims that Brzezinski and Ball used the Islamic Balkanization model proposed by Bernard Lewis. In 2007, he completed Seeds of Destruction: The Hidden Agenda of GMO.
He has openly affiliated himself with perennial presidential candidate Lyndon H. LaRouche Jr.
Engdahl is also a frequent contributor to the website of the Centre for Research on Globalization.
William Engdahl has been married since 1987, and has been living for more than two decades near Frankfurt am Main, Germany.[1]

[edit] Confessions of an 'ex' peak oil believer

Engdahl stated in 2007 that he had come to believe that petroleum is not biological in origin, produced from remains of prehistoric zooplankton and algae, which had settled to a sea or lake bottom in large quantities under anoxic conditions, which is a theory supported by the majority of petroleum geologists and engineers.[3] Instead he now believes the hypothesis that petroleum is geological in origin, produced deep underground from carbon, by conditions and forces of heat and pressure deeper down than the Earth's bioshpere. Engdahl calls himself an "ex peak oil believer", stating that peak oil is actually a political phenomenon.[4]

[edit] Global cooling

Engdahl argued that the Earth is cooling, not warming.[5] He claims that global warming, like peak oil, is merely a "scare" and an attempt "by powerful vested interests to convince the world to sacrifice [so] that they remain in control of the events of this planet".[5]

[edit] Defense of Hosni Mubarak

On Russia Today television channel's interview Engdahl stated that the 2011 Egyptian Revolution was orchestrated by the Pentagon to facilitate Barack Obama's Middle East foreign policy and Egypt had turned to a worse situation after Hosni Mubarak was overthrown.[6]

Marines Heading To Cairo As Americans Flee Chaotic Protests

Washington, D.C. (Feb 1) – The United States is sending Marine Corps units to Cairo in efforts to protect American diplomats in the country as rioting continues in Egypt and other areas in the Middle East. Heavily armed Marine vehicles are heading to the U.S. Embassy in Cairo and other U.S. Embassy facilities in the region.
Massive protests continue against Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak as U.S. officials are urging Americans in the area to leave the country for their safety. Nearly 2,500 American citizens have contacted by U.S. State Department officials seeking evacuation from the turmoil. Government-charted evacuation flights are said to be in progress now.
The State Department is reporting that more than 200 Americans have already vacated the country on special flights, with approximately 100 people leaving on a U.S. military plane already in Egypt. Additional evacuation flights are scheduled, with plans to evacuate more than 900 Americans on Monday and an additional 1,000 or so Tuesday.
Most of the U.S citizens looking to leave are in Cairo, the largest city in Cairo, but others are in other Egyptian cities such as Aswan and Alexandria. The U.S. is hoping to avoid a similar situation that lead to the Iranian hostage crisis of 1979 where Americans were taken hostage amid chaotic uprisings as part of the Islamic Revolution. Americans looking to leave the area can contact the U.S. State Department online or call 1-888-407-4747

Excerpt:

The 1973 oil crisis started in October 1973, when the members of Organization of Arab Petroleum Exporting Countries or the OAPEC (consisting of the Arab members of OPEC, plus Egypt, Syria and Tunisia) proclaimed an oil embargo. This was "in response to the U.S. decision to re-supply the Israeli military" during the Yom Kippur war.[citation needed] It lasted until March 1974.[1] With the U.S. actions seen as initiating the oil embargo and the long term possibility of high oil prices, disrupted supply and recession, a strong rift was created within NATO. Additionally, some European nations and Japan sought to disassociate themselves from the U.S. Middle East policy.

Alastair MacDonald, Reuters
Alastair MacDonald reports: "For an October revolution, dress warm. That's the word going out - politely - on the Web to rally street protests on Saturday around the globe from New Zealand to Alaska via London, Frankfurt, Washington and, of course, New York, where the past month's Occupy Wall Street movement has inspired a worldwide yell of anger at banks and financiers. Only time will tell what a growing global social movement can muster, but the energy is discernible and the momentum remains in favor of a new kind of change."
