It’s the oil, stupid.

There is $6 trillion worth of oil in the Caspian Sea. Isn’t that strange?

    I wondered why it was difficult to swim through it…

    Sources? Citations? This guy’s theory sounds about right, but like most internet reporting, it can’t be bothered with such nicities as evidence and corroboration. A lot of this is hardly common nknowledge. It would have been nice to have had some links or records to back it up. Too bad.

    I had heard that about the pipeline before, and about prior US support for the Taliban. On the one hand you’re right of course, that some sort of corroboration for all that would be comforting. OTOH, I find that information on the internet is largely reliable.
