Washington to cut Iran in on Nabucco pipeline DEBKA-Net-Weekly Exclusive

April 28, 2009, 11:26 AM (GMT+02:00)

Iran is about to become a major fuel supplier to the West, DEBKA-Net-Weekly reports.

For the sake of dialogue and cooperation, Washington is ceding Tehran the chance to feed its natural gas into the 3,000 kilometer-long Nabucco pipeline project (from the Caspian to the EU via Turkey).

The strategic-economic consequences of the Obama administration's major perk for Iran is analyzed in the coming DEBKA-Net-Weekly's issue out Friday.

Bringing Iran into the New World Order will help enslave the planet. Obama is right on the course of the Bildeberg’s and the Trilateral commssion.

Doing this may help keep the price of oil low, which will make it even harder economically to drill for our own.

Not to mention funding Iranian shenanigans.

It appears Debka either fabricates the news or uses schmuck's as reporters and/or as sources. Maybe they do both?

If I was smoking crack, most of Debka's news would still sound foolish and be unbelievable.

Other sources relating various levels of info:

On the other hand, the U.S. has been lobbying some countries to provide gas to Nabucco — even trying to reach out to Iran and make it as a gas supplier.

Iran is not excluded entirely from emerging as a possible natural gas supplier to the Western-backed Nabucco pipeline, U.S. representatives said.

Not clear on that yet, Joe. With LNG becoming more uneconomical in the US due to slack demand, I don't see this as a major price-moving event, either direction.

Well, ya pays yer money and ya takes yer choice, eh?
