If you remember the lies which allowed big energy to exploit oil-rich Iraq at the expense of taxpayer dollars and soldier's lives, you'll love their next move using the same lies and creation of conditions demanding an invasion of a region rich in resources they've long since targeted.
Dick Cheney's Halliburton has made some $39 billion from the Iraq invasion alone thus far. Here
SO:
Of course, if they can predict it, they can completely stop it from happening, yes?
Of course not...it's their excuse to invade and grab resources and tax dollars, and to subjugate the population in a state of fear, one further justifying the tax dollars feeding the currently $1 trillion a year surveillance state budget. Here
Because peak oil requires big energy be ready with a new energy source they can sell for a massive profit once oil runs out.
Because Dick Cheney's company Halliburton created fracking (six decades' worth!) Here. Hillary Clinton's state department is for exporting fracking. Here
But to where? Where are the new resources? Dick has known for years:
"June 1998: Businessweek reported that Dick Cheney (CEO of Halliburton) had been 'courting politicians and business leaders through the booming Caspian Sea region in an all-out effort to secure key political ties with Azerbaijan and Kazakstan. Accounting for the world's third-largest oil reserves, the region is Cheney's best hope to secure big contracts for a long time to come.' DickCheney helped broker the Chevron-Kazakhstan deal when he sat on the Kazakhstan OilAdvisory Board in the mid-'90s (Business Week 1998, Amarillo Globe-News, June 13, 1998)" Here
How nice, to have your corporation be the frontman of the next big energy source. How nice to be able to play international fear and tensions to get there.
But wait, there's more:
However, three months ago, the Financial Times mentioned that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had granted his approval to develop the field."
But as Cheney and friends gnash their teeth about getting to the precious oil and gas, Russia are making counter-moves...just like in Ukraine.
But if you need more than money as motivation for Cheney and the neocons:
"New Pearl Harbor"
Section V of Rebuilding America's Defenses, entitled 'Creating Tomorrow's Dominant Force', includes the sentence: "Further, the process of transformation, even if it brings revolutionary change, is likely to be a long one, absent some catastrophic and catalyzing event––like a new Pearl Harbor". Here
"'That's not the way the world really works anymore,' he continued. 'We're an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality. And while you're studying that reality—judiciously, as you will—we'll act again, creating other new realities, which you can study too, and that's how things will sort out. We're history's actors…and you, all of you, will be left to just study what we do.'" ~Karl Rove Here
"Our foreign policy is about securing resources for corporations, and propping up militarily ‘friendly’ regimes at all costs to human life and US taxpayer treasure. Nothing more." Here
If there is indeed another 9/11, it's Dick Cheney's personal fault (again). Remember him, and this. Always.

Dick Cheney predicts attack this decade ‘far deadlier’ than 9/11

"Since the collapse of the USSR at the end
of 1991, U.S. oil companies and their friends in the State Department
have been salivating at the prospect of gaining access to the huge oil
and natural gas reserves in the former Soviet republics bordering the
Caspian Sea and in Central Asia. These have been estimated as worth $4
trillion. The American Petroleum Institute calls the Caspian region 'the
area of greatest resource potential outside of the Middle East.'
...while he was still CEO of Halliburton, the
world's biggest oil services company, Vice President Dick Cheney told
other industry executives, 'I can't think of a time when we've had a
region emerge as suddenly to become as strategically significant as the
Caspian.'" Here

Russia preparing to develop Gaza gas field
"It is only logical to assume that this step will raise the ire of Israel...AFP reported that there were talks of investing $1 billion to develop the Palestinian gas field.However, three months ago, the Financial Times mentioned that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had granted his approval to develop the field."
