Thread: Iraq oil to be shipped to Israel

Iraq oil to be shipped to Israel
The new pipeline would take oil from the Kirkuk area, where some 40 percent of Iraqi oil is produced, and transport it via Mosul, and then across Jordan to Israel.

As you look at that urn with the ashes of your loved one,or gaze at that tombstone covered with snow and a faded flag, remember two things. There were no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.
Israel gets Iraq's oil.
Don't it make ya proudernshit to be an American?

Israel gets all of Iraq's oil?

How many politicians and President(s) from both sides of the aisle openly admitted Iraq had WMD?

This doesn't surprise me. In the 1975 Memorandum for Understanding the USA guaranteed all Israel's oil needs in the event of a crisis. The U.S. government also agreed to divert oil from the USA, even if this causes domestic shortages, and they guaranteed delivery of oil in U.S. tankers if commercial shippers become unable or unwilling to carry oil from the USA to Israel.

Israel-United States Memorandum of Understanding - 1975

The Iraq war is for oil. Some argue that oil is for Israel. Israel has been longing for a local source of oil. Having a nearby supplier would increase their energy security and reduce the cost of its imports.

"So where is the oil going to come from? ... The Middle East, with two-thirds of the world's oil and the lowest cost, is still where the prize ultimately lies,"
—Dick Cheney, 1999, while still CEO of the oil services company, Halliburton.

Oh, this will be immensely popular. What a brilliant idea! :laughing:

A barrel of oil is about 102.00 buckaroos now. Did Americans consume more gasoline in a month for the price of a barrel of oil to jump that high?
Some experts claim the price of a gallon of gas will jump over 4.00 dollars. Americans consuming more gas in winter months? Bottom line is OPEC has been gouging the American people since this war began.

You are wrong. Has nothing to do with gouging. Gas is going up because our dollar is going down. The avarage cost for gas in Europe has gone up about 25% over the last 8 years. The cost in America has gone up 100% in that same time period. Why? Because our dollar is not worth what it was 8 years ago, not by a longshot.

If you had simply taken $100,000 six years ago and transferred it into Euros and just stuck it under a mattress you could pull it out today and transfer it back to dollars and have over $150,000. You would have made almost $10,000 per year just for stashing it there. Thats not a bad return on your investment.

Back to the oil. They are not necessarily qouging us. They are basically saying we will still sell oil at $60 per barrel except your dollar is only worth 60 cents compared to a few years ago so we want $100 per barrel from you.

Not so with the Europeans. Their Euro is now worth over $1.50 compared to about 6 yrs ago so when they go to buy oil, they still pay $100 per barrel but 100 Euros is not $100, it's $150. It buys them a barrel and a half! Thats why the price at the pump in Europe has gone up about 25% where at the same time it's gone up 100% in the US. (I know they pay more for gas but that is due to how they tax it and has nothing to do with the actual cost to them)

I know that hat may be heating up your brain making it difficult to understand this concept Coolio but thats the way it is. Another 4 years financing this stupid fuckin war of yours and who knows, it may go to $12 gal. But it won't be due to price gouging, it will be due to fucked up foriegn policy destroying the value of our dollar.

Ron Paul is really the only one who had this situation pegged except he made the mistake of trying to explain it to a bunch of ignorant rednecks that were incapable of understanding 6th grade level math.
