That's what it all comes down to. The dollar must be the top currency, even though it's actually not supported by anything other than the US military.... and then the need to commercialize everything, American style.

But there are two countries which the US cannot take on and be sure to win: China and Russia. Europe is already in the US pocket...

But if China and Russia could come to an agreement together to switch do some alternative, then things might change. Apparently China itself has masses of dollars saved though, and can not afford for them to lose their value.
Fair play, the road map seems to lead there.. but there can't be enough gas in the tank.... can there?

.. The idea that the 'golden dinar' would somehow be able to upstage not only the american dollar, but every other currency on the map? That the US should be worried that these new forms of currency would go from 0 to being the pace car of currencies, so we move in an expensive and costly (in terms of lives) "democracy operation?" I'm a conspiracy theorist enough to believe it.. but shouldn't there be something more imminently threatening than "the golden dinar?" (And, if we moved in on Saddam because of currency, then am I to believe that the stories of human torture wherein children were tied to ceiling fans until they were swung to death were fabricated? Or were they just "icing on the cake" for reasons to move in military?)

Please don't mistake this for an attempt to debate this; I merely want to know what everyone's thought are. I know nothing of these topics beyond what little I've read and I respect your opinions... my conspiracy theorist research has all been in reference to goings-on on American soil.
