I have a
strange hypothesis. It is framed by the data connected through dots. It goes
like this “Oil money funded anti-social organizations that scare off citizens
and Govt.’s of many nations aiding to geo-politics. This disturbance was
helping the oil producers to keep the crude oil prices high.” But in politics and
markets, supremacy of one party is not eternal and every strategy will have an
expiry date.
Now crude
prices are halved as supply went high. Geo-politics, closing the boundary of a
nation or blocking a sea route cannot drive oil prices high as oil can still be
transported from other sources and through other ways which were not existent a
few years ago. So when the oil producers are getting half the money what they
were getting before, how do they feed the parasite mouths? But the organizations
who made a living out of this money, know no other business than killing
people. They need to show off how danger they could get, so the world’s peace
was disturbed in the recent past. France became one of the victims.
The measures the
world’s leaders take might help curb such activities. But the real blow is
given by lower oil prices. The recent spike in attacks on civilized world shows
that those outfits are desperate to show they can do their jobs well. But the
times have changed. They cannot drive the oil prices back to $100/barrel. If
oil prices are to remain low, which is a likely case, the fund flow to those holding
weapons in hands will dry up. But until all their ammunition gets over, events
like that happened in Paris are likely to repeat.
Money in the
wrong hands is as dangerous as weapons in the uncivilized hands. When the money
is in short supply to them, how will they acquire new weapons or hire new
people to keep things going? When the money runs out, violence in the name of
ideology too comes to a halt, unless they find a new source of money.
Cooling down
of commodity super-cycle has made sure that the countries selling their natural
resources go through a distress. As far as we can see, new money getting into
the wrong hands is a least probability. So those outfits are fighting a losing
war. But the ammunition in store has to come to an end before we see peace and
normalcy being restored, everywhere.
