The 1973 Oil "crisis" appears to have been planned in Saltsjöbaden, Sweden by a small group including bankers and senior US oil executives.
The events of Watergate, which finished Richard Nixon politically, were the second time the cabal had staged a silent coup in US in a decade. This not only increasing their confidence and influence, but it settled the issue of leadership, putting the US deep state into the hands of George H. W. Bush.

Events

Event	Date	Description
Operation Paperclip		A transfer of top German scientists to USA.
Cold War		The official narrative had 2 diametrically opposed systems locked in combat with one another since soon after WW2. Each of the "superpowers" and its team of allies needed to outdo each other by creating ever more and deadlier weapons, creating a kind of perpetual war for perpetual peace, with the warring parties engaging mainly in covert/proxy wars. Deep state interests blossomed in the climate of fear and paranoia.
Operation Demagnetize		"The institutional hardening of Gladio", an expansion of Gladio in the late 1940s, early 1950s.
Lockheed/Bribery scandals		A series of bribes made by officials of the U.S. aerospace company Lockheed from the late 1950s to the 1970s in the process of negotiating the sale of aircraft.
Vietnam War		The Vietnam War was a proxy war lead by US that occurred in Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia from December 1956 to the fall of Saigon on 30 April 1975. Millions of people were killed, mostly Vietnamese. JFK was assassinated soon after declaring his intent to withdraw US troops. The war helped the CIA to refine its methods of illegal drug trafficking, torture and the like.
Rhodesian Bush War
Chagos Archipelago/Depopulation
The Troubles		The sectarian conflict in Northern Ireland which flared into serious sustained violence through the summer of 1969
Operation Condor		US-backed campaign of assassination and terrorisation carried out in South America.
Markovic affair
Great Oil Sniffer Hoax		A fraudulent scheme purporting to be able to detect oil by a new technology. Details remain rather obscure.
Clockwork Orange
Inslaw		The Inslaw affair was a complex financial/political fraud the full dimensions of which were never uncovered, but some of which were forced onto the official record.
Watergate coup		This is framed by the official narrative as a simple case of political corruption, one which proves that "the system works", since the powerful perpetrator was caught - if not actually brought to justice, since outgoing president Nixon was immediately pardoned by his successor, Gerald Ford. In fact it may well have been the outworking of a deeper political power struggle at work.
Guillaume affair
Libyan Arab Airlines Flight 114		Forty two years later, in another case of mass murder in Sinai, Russian Airbus Metrojet Flight 9268 exploded on 31 October 2015 killing all 224 passengers and crew
Bilderberg/1973		The meeting at which the 1973 oil crisis appears to have been planned.
Chile/1973 coup d'état
"1973 Oil crisis"		A huge rise in the price of oil, very probably created by attendees of the 1973 Bilderberg.
Yom Kippur War		A Bilderberg approved war in the Middle East to provide probable cause to increased the oil price, allowing US oil companies to cash in big time.
Le Cercle/1973 (Washington)		Exact dates uncertain
