Former Reagan Bush Top Aide prominent national defense expert (Petraeus’s close friend who was not crazy about Jews) Found Dead in a Dumpster: What Do You Think Happened?

The mysterious death of prominent national defense expert John P. Wheeler is starting to make the Vince Foster death look like an open and shut case.

As you’ve probably read by now, Wheeler, a former Army officer who served in three Republican administrations and who was instrumental in getting the Vietnam War Memorial on the D.C. mall built, was found dead in a Delaware landfill on New Year’s Eve.

For days, police and investigators puzzled over who could have dumped the body there. But then on Wednesday, The Associated Press reported that video had emerged of Wheeler looking confused and disoriented while wandering around a parking garage several days before his body was dumped.

Police also spoke to witnesses who said Wheeler walked into a downtown Wilmington, Dela., office building 14 hours before his body was dumped, also looking a bit confused and lost.

In the video, Wheeler is walking around in a suit with no overcoat and wearing only one shoe on a chilly December 29 night at a downtown parking garage. Holding his damaged right shoe, he is seen approaching a parking attendant and telling her he wanted to warm up before paying for his parking, even though his car was not parked in that garage. Wheeler also said he’d been robbed of his briefcase and repeatedly assured the attendant that he was not drunk.

Wheeler’s car was found at an Amtrak station where he often caught the train to Washington, where it had been parked since December 13. That in itself was not unusual, since he often parked there for long periods. He was last seen on the afternoon of December 30 about four blocks from the office of an attorney who was representing Wheeler and his wife in a property dispute with a neighbor; the lawyer said he’d last spoken to Wheeler three days earlier.

Several smoke bombs were tossed into the neighbor’s house on December 28, though police don’t know yet who lobbed them. A pharmacist who had filled prescriptions for Wheeler in the past said the veteran asked him for a ride to Wilmington on December 29, describing Wheeler as looking upset at the time.

Police believe they know where Wheeler’s body was dumped into a trash bin that ended up at the landfill, but have not yet found any surveillance tape to indicate a suspect.

IBN’s Expert Bloggers Lead the Way

By Padraig O’Hannelly.

For readers interested in investment opportunities in Iraq, I think it’s fair to say that our Expert Bloggers have excelled themselves in recent weeks.

Following the analysis of Iraq’s banking sector by InvestAD‘s Sherif Salem earlier this month, Mark DeWeaver of Quantrarian Asia Hedge has been picking through the balance sheets of listed companies to identify under-valued assets.

The results are sometimes startling, with property bought when the Iraqi dinar was worth over $ 3 — it’s now worth less than one-tenth of a cent — still carried on the books at original cost price; Mark finds hidden gems trading at tiny fractions of the values of their property.

We’re also delighted to welcome a new Expert Blogger to our ranks: Jared Levy is Senior Middle East Analyst at Dunia Frontier Consultants. Based in Iraq, Jared has extensive experience conducting field research, and this week gives us a detailed look at foreign commercial activity in the country in the first seven months of this year. We look forward to reading his perspectives on inward investment in the country.

Global oil prices may hit $200 if Israel attacks Iran: Energy expert

Global oil prices may hit $ 200 if Israel attacks Iran: Energy expert
An Indian energy expert says global oil prices could hit USD 200 per barrel in case of a possible Israeli attack on Iran.
Thu Mar 1, 2012 5:13PM GMT

“The replacement for Iran oil has to come from Saudi Arabia and there is the problem. We reckon overall global spare capacity is around 1.6 to 1.7 million barrels per day (mbpd), but that’s clearly not enough to offset 2.3 mbpd exports that Iran gives to the world.”

Amrita Sen, commodity strategist at Barclays Capital
An Indian energy expert says global oil prices could hit USD 200 per barrel in case of a possible Israeli attack on Iran over the latter country’s nuclear energy program.

In an interview with the NDTV Profit network, Amrita Sen, a commodity strategist at Barclays Capital, noted that the price hike would have a powerful negative impact on Europe’s ailing economies which are already suffering from a euro weak against the dollar.

The expert added that there are other factors at work which may further worsen the negative effects of such an oil shock.

She stated that some smaller oil-producing countries like Yemen, Sudan and Nigeria, have already lost a total of a million barrels per day of their output while the energy demand in big Asian economies like India and China is rapidly soaring.

As a result of a combination of these factors, Sen said, “oil inventories have been drawing down despite the output being above 10 million barrels per day.”

Asked whether Saudi Arabia can compensate for the absence of Iran’s oil from global markets, the expert stated that Riyadh’s surplus capacity was not high enough to serve such a purpose.

“The replacement for Iran oil has to come from Saudi Arabia and there is the problem. We reckon overall global spare capacity is around 1.6 to 1.7 million barrels per day (mbpd), but that’s clearly not enough to offset 2.3 mbpd exports that Iran gives to the world,” Sen said.

She noted that in addition to the situation in Iran, the crises in two other major oil producers, namely Iraq and Nigeria, have reduced the global surplus oil production capacity to below one million barrels a day.

“It is not just Iran; there is Iraq, there is Nigeria. Anytime you go down to spare capacity, which is less than one mbpd, automatically the prices will rise. You should have at least a five-percent buffer. Inventories have been low as well. So there is not enough buffer in the oil market at present,” she added.

After the European Union imposed new embargoes on oil imports from Iran, Tehran responded by announcing on February 15 that it was cutting oil exports to six EU countries.

Following the announcement, global oil prices reached their highest levels in nine months with Brent crude for delivery in April hitting USD 124.31 per barrel.

Meanwhile, the world’s largest oil trader, Vitol, has also warned that crude prices could spike to above USD 150 per barrel if tensions with Iran escalate further.
