The truth is, everyone was getting paid one way or | another and nobody wanted it to stop or fix it. It was good for everyone | involved. Except the dead crewmen. It was pretty bad for them. " | | So America pays the naval vessels to capture the oil...to have American | companies buy the oil....to sell it back to the Navy ships...to do what? | That doesn't make sense. | | In short..the story seems to be BS. | | -Gel | -----Original Message----- | From: Cantrell, Adam [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] | | Interesting little read - | http://exile.ru/168/168010100.html | | Still not about the oil though ;) | | | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=5 Get the mailserver that powers this list at http://www.coolfusion.com Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
