[Gasification] as but one example!!!

[Kevin Chisholm]

Dear Peter

The site you present points to a scary and perhaps terrifying situation. 
We would obviously all like to be able to "write it off" as alarmist, or 
as not being important.

Is there ANYONE on the List who can provide any factual information to 
show that this article is not a preview of things to come?

Can anyone present any palpable, self evident reasons why the AIPAC 
Agenda will not be followed by the US, and why there will not be a War 
with Iran?

If the US gets sucked in to attacking Iran, then there should be a great 
need for biomass energies, in that not very much oil will be able to get 
out of the Middle East.

Peace to all.

Kevin
