    Col. Prouty spent 9 of his 23-year military career in the Pentagon (1955-1964): 2 years with the Secretary of Defense, 2 years with the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and 5 years with Headquarters, U.S. Air Force. In 1955 he was appointed the first "Focal Point" officer between the CIA and the Air Force for Clandestine Operations per National Security Council Directive 5412. He was Briefing Officer for the Secretary of Defense (1960-1961), and for the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

    You can start by searching the words "abiotic oil." This will lead you to an enormous amount of literature and other materials on the subject.

    To cut to the chase, you can do a search for the two books written by Jerome Corsi ("Black Gold Stranglehold" and "The Great Oil Conspiracy"), and the book by Thomas Gold "The Deep Hot Biosphere."

    A couple of videos on the subject are:
    • Freeman Dyson on Tommy Gold, hearing ...
    https://vimeo.com/392130946

    But I suggest that you do the long research for yourself by searching "abiotic oil."

    There are a couple of so-called "fact-checking" efforts to debunk the Rockefeller-related hypotheses made by Fletcher Prouty, Thomas Gold, Jerome Corsi, a few different Russian and German scientists, and me - among other journalists and commentators. These debunking efforts revolve around the earlier use of the term "fossil fuels" - in a translation from a German language book written by Caspar Neumann in the mid-18th century. Therefore, they argue that the general term "fossil fuels" could not have been coined by John Rockefeller or anyone at Standard Oil, since the book was published before Rockefeller was born.

    I've seen the book (https://play.google.com/books/reader?...) and how "Fossil Fuel" was actually used in this mid-18th century instance. It was more of a situation of the words "Fossil" and "Fuel" appearing together rather than a term or phrase being consciously created. The use of the two words together only appeared once, in the index of a book, not in the body of the book, and it referred to a fuel being used to smelt iron. The fuel referenced would have been peat, pit coal, or lignite coal (a type of coal made from peat). It did not refer to crude oil (petroleum oil), which was not used as an engine fuel at that time.

    The term "Fossil Fuel," in the context of referring to a fuel that powers a mechanical engine, was not coined by Caspar Neumann in the mid-18th century, it was coined sometime in the late 19th or early 20th century. It may not have been specifically uttered by John Rockefeller in a "Citizen Kane ROSE BUD" style incident, it may have been first used by one of his associates or just some unidentified chronicler at the time.

    In the instance of this video, and in all discussions of the use of the term "fossil fuels" referring to petroleum oil, it is incorrect to call petroleum oil a "fossil fuel" for the reasons stated in the Prouty video and the other materials that I reference above. Prouty's explanation, for example, refers to the hyperbolic use of the term fossil fuel to exaggerate petroleum oil's limited availability. The oil industry was always the originator of the rumors that the world is running out of oil, and they did so in order to manipulate supply and demand, and oil prices.

    In any event, petroleum oil fuels are not naturally created, they are refined from crude oil and contain many different chemicals. To my knowledge, none of these chemicals exist because of the demise of dinosaurs. Petroleum oil (crude oil) in its raw state is of "abiotic" origin.

    There' s a dollar sign behind almost everything. Invent "fossil fuels" so you can have scarcity so you can have global highest set price per barrel. This is the best explanation I've heard of "abiogenesis" of oil.


    Fletcher Prouty maintains a stellar reputation for wisdom and righteousness from having been a true USA patriot of our miserable modern world.

    Scientists love the term abiogenesis when it refers to life coming from non-life molecultes that evolve over "millions and millions of years" (theory of evolution) but scientists hate the term abiogenesis when it comes to petroleum (oil, energy, fuel).

    "
    Abiogenic petroleum origin
    Fringe theory about the origin of petroleum

    The abiogenic petroleum origin hypothesis proposes that most of earth's petroleum and natural gas deposits were formed inorganically. Scientific evidence overwhelmingly supports a biogenic origin for most of the world's petroleum deposits. Mainstream theories about the formation of hydrocarbons on earth point to an origin from the decomposition of long-dead organisms..."

    Two Princeton, MIT Scientists Say EPA Climate Regulations Based on a ‘Hoax’

    Excerpt:

    "Citing extensive data to support their case, William Happer, professor emeritus in physics at Princeton University, and Richard Lindzen, professor emeritus of atmospheric science at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), argued that the claims used by the EPA to justify the new regulations are not based on scientific facts but rather political opinions and speculative models that have consistently proven to be wrong.

    “The unscientific method of analysis, relying on consensus, peer review, government opinion, models that do not work, cherry-picking data and omitting voluminous contradictory data, is commonly employed in these studies and by the EPA in the Proposed Rule,” Mr. Happer and Mr. Lindzen stated. “None of the studies provides scientific knowledge, and thus none provides any scientific support for the Proposed Rule.” "
