(62,325 posts)the 'handing over of Iraq to Maliki's govt guaranteed control of over 80% of those oil fields to Global Oil Corporations. The Iraqi PEOPLE did not want this, WE were not aware of it until Kucinich revealed that 'secret clause' to the public.
Now, you're telling me that a bunch of so-called terrorists managed to take control, the operation, the finances of those much coveted Oil Fields and NO ONE knew this until these rumors start spreading? The entire Iraq War was ABOUT those oil fields in case anyone forgot.
And what do you mean by 'reportedly' they are selling to Assad? That would not be enough to begin with, those oil fields supplied MANY countries around the world.
I have seen NOTHING credible to support this 'theory' at all. Do you seriously think the US would leave what they WENT there to get, to a bunch of rag tag terrorists?
No, that is NOT where they are getting their funding. Have you read PBS's interview with one of them, where he explains where they were 'trained' and by whom? Where they got those theatrical 'uniforms', where those training tapes came from?
We learned long ago that nothing is as it seems when it comes to our Foreign Wars. Anyone who believes these impossible theories must not have been around back in 2003 and beyond.
