Russia-China-Iran about to take advantage of Bush War Fuck-Up
Energy Alliance & US Isolation

he world of energy has many faces in the past two years. As the Middle East and Caspian Region encounter growing US Military presence, alliances have formed and are solidifying along the periphery. The battle is for the untapped oil in the Caspian Region in the former Soviet Republic territories. The trends regarding the politics of energy have become intertwined with military weapon supply, military troop commitment, and nuclear technology. The danger comes from the nuclear component, since it can operate under the guise of peaceful electrical power generation. With only slight diversions from the centrifuge refinement process, and with mere rerouting of spent fuel processing, a nuclear weapons capability is born. Delivery becomes the key question, as in missiles.
