:It is well known that after Nixon won his 1972 mandate, he immediately asked for the resignation of all administration employees. Nixon felt his mandate could finally purge DC of all [[New Deal]] and [[Great Society]] (i.e. Deep State) holdovers and bureaucrats.

:The argument that Nixon's relation to the Petrodollar confuses the [[Deep State]] with [[globalism]]. Not all globalists are deep starers. And the petrodollar was not 'invented' by Nixon; the petrodollar refers to U.S. dollars held outside the country by oil producers in the Middle East, who were demanding gold in payment for oil. All the gold of Fort Knox couldn't settle the dollar demand debt held by foreigners. Nixon severed the tie of gold to the dollar and told the oil producers they could try to buy whatever they could with paper currency. The petrodollar is not a globalist or illuminati conspiracy.

RobS, I absolutely stand by my edit. Nixon literally planted the seeds for the creation of the petrodollar cabal by entering into that agreement. He gave away a significant part of our sovereignty to OPEC in general and Saudi Arabia in particular. He turned OPEC into what is essentially a "College of Cardinals" who are just as powerful as the Federal Reserve, if not more so.
It is this cabal to who many of the neocons answer. Why do you think we intervened in the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait? Because Iraq was threatening Saudi Arabia's hegemony over the region, and therefore the petrodollar. Why do you think we invaded Iraq? Because Saddam started selling oil in Euros, and therefore threatened the petrodollar. Why do you think we attacked Libya? Because Gaddafi started selling oil in gold, and therefore threatened the petrodollar. Why do you think we sponsored the war in Syria? Because Assad was about to build an oil pipeline that threatened Saudi Arabia's hegemony over the regional oil market, and therefore threatened the petrodollar. Why did we sponsor the failed coup in Turkey? Because Turkey was about to overtake Saudi Arabia as the "commander-in-chief" of the Sunni jihadist movement, therefore threatening Saudi Arabia's regional hegemony and the petrodollar. Why do you think Saudi Arabia has been pushing for war with Iran, Turkey, and Qatar? Because all three of them are threatening Saudi Arabia's regional hegemony, and the petrodollar.
When it comes to neocons and the Middle East, all roads lead back to the petrodollar and Saudi Arabia and its Gulf State puppets. A not-so-secret cabal that has control of a significant part of our financial sector. A massive criminal enterprise that uses its economic clout to both manipulate global markets on a massive scale ''and'' support global terrorist organizations such as al-Qaeda and ISIS. A serious rival to the CIA for the unofficial title of "The most powerful faction of the Deep State." Or perhaps even a second, entirely separate Deep State.
Who gave them this power? Richard Milhous Nixon.--[[User:Geopolitician|Geopolitician]] ([[User talk:Geopolitician|talk]]) 11:15, 25 February 2020 (EST)
