The 1973 Middle East War in "The Currency War": The U.S. Counterattack. The Fourth Middle East War was not a coincidence. In May 1973, 84 international bankers, multinational giants, and selected politicians convened to discuss how to deal with the declining dollar that was losing its gold backing. The international bankers proposed a shocking plan to raise international oil prices by 400%! The most brilliant part of the plan was "blaming others." They incited Egypt and Syria to attack Israel, and the U.S. openly supported Israel to provoke the Arabs. This ultimately led to the Arab countries imposing an oil embargo on the West in anger, causing oil prices to soar sky-high, and all the anger in the world was directed at the Arab nations. While the international bankers watched the tiger fight from the mountain, they also counted the flow of petrodollar cash back into their hands, not only reversing the decline of the dollar😃
