Warnings to Super-Rich Arab People

Warnings to Super-Rich Arab People

(Avertissements aux super-riches peuple arabe)




Yesterday I bought a Japanese book about super-rich Arab people.

(http://www.amazon.co.jp/gp/product/410610251X?ie=UTF8&linkCode=as2&tag=blogsofdankog-22 )

The author is a former chief of office in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, of Japan External Trade Organization (JETRO).

It is very authentic, since the Japanese author had been working in the Japanese oil industry since 1976 even befor having joined JETRO, a Japanese Government-affiliated organization.

According to his estimation, there are still 1.2 trillion barrels of crude oil under the ground of the Middle East.

With an assumption of a value, $100 per barrel, the untapped source of wealth in the Arab oil producing countries is worth 120 trillion dollars.

The author also introduced estimation of years left for those countries with crude oil available or reserve-production ratio:

Saudi Arabia – 67 years
UAE – 90 years
Kuwait – More than 100 years

With natural gas:
Saudi Arabia – 96 years
UAE – More than 100 years
Qatar – More than 100 years


Therefore, according to his claim, mankind should not worry about depletion of fossil fuels at present.

As for the financial power, the working balance of total oil dollars is said to be 2.5 trillion dollars, according to a certain research organization.

However, a more authentic figure is the total current-account surplus of member countries of Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) between 2002 and 2006, which reaches 540 billion dollars.

At least, 300 billion dollars are invested into the U.S; 100 billion dollars into Europe; 60 billion dollars into the Middle East; 60 billion dollars into Asia; and 20 billion dollars into others.

(The scale of the national budget of the U.S. is about 2000 billion dollars and that of Japan is about 800 billion dollars.

Yet, the Islamic oil producing countries cannot overwhelm the U.S. and Japan.)

But, while they have no first-rate industries, no first-rate engineering base, no first-rate scientific development base, no first-rate universal cultural back ground, they have just accumulated that amount of dollars relying on only one commodity: fossil fuels including crude oil and natural gas.

Their dollars are not a result of honest and hard working of their people including royal families concerned.

Crude oil and natural gas are just endowed Muslims with by Allah.

It is not to make royal families concerned super-rich.

It is to make poor Muslims in the world rich.


I don’t think that Allah would be pleased to see super-rich Arab royal families while there are a billion of poor Muslims in the world.

The Japanese author of the book also mentioned Mr. Adnan Kashoggi, a Saudi Arabian agent of the US defense industry (having a business tie with influential US investment groups including the Bushes) and an uncle of Princess Diana’s Muslim boyfriend.

But, Arab countries do not need Mr. Kashoggi any more, since their newly acquired financial power has strengthened their position in business with the U.S., the U.K. and so on.

He also cited that the U.K. and France have been in a severe competition for selling their weapons, especially fighter planes, to those GCC countries.

He wrote that Prince Charles and his new wife visited Saudi Arabia in the middle of this trade war, probably, for promotion of British weapons sales.

But, what concerns me more is that if a fraction of oil dollars is offered for terrorists through complicated channels, no one would be able to trace them and prove the fact, since the source is so large.

Actually, a half of the above said 540 billion dollars GCC countries can use for any investment is being used in a very closed manner.

As GCC countries are not based on democracy Allah has, however, never rejected, no one can check how their royal families use oil dollars in global market or in any other deal.

Allah gave Islam and crude oil to Arabs; but somebody must give them democracy that makes every transaction concerned with oil and dollars transparent.

Otherwise, terrorists will never experience troubles in finding funds that support their activities.


The War on Terror must advance, without relying on military forces and organized violence, to the War on Monpoly of Oil Dollars which might be the main source of every conspiracy theory about the 9/11 Terror.

The next US President yet to be must strat to address it even in the middle of his or her election campaign.



(A few days ago, I bought a movie CD, the Robe.

"The Robe is most famous now for being the first movie filmed in CinemaScope…In this way it rather resembles how Ben Hur interweaves the Biblical story with fictional events of Ben Hur's life…"

However, as I have been busy and the late-night TV news program is so important, I cannot still find time to play it on my PC screen.

But, I met the movie CD, priced at 478 yen or 4.6 dollars, at an almost hidden corner of a super-market with various discounted commodities where I saw a kind of angels.

I might view it on Saturday, since Saturday is nowadays truly a holiday-like day.)
