Over the last two weeks, Russia has been destroying
the “living pipeline” that has allowed Turkey to steal tens of millions of
barrels of Syrian crude oil, much of it at peak market prices, while only
paying their ISIS allies a pittance.
This process isn’t new. Turkey did this all
during the Bush era, having cut a deal with US “manager” Paul Bremmer, a deal
VT insiders helped manage for Bremmer and that I was witness to personally.
The game involved playing Baghdad against Erbil and
bleeding off oil revenues from the Kirkuk Oil Fields, largest oil reserves in
the world, as they moved by pipeline through Kurdistan and into Turkey.
There they were offloaded onto American tankers in the Mediterranean
where these huge ships, largest in the world, were filled with oil but it was
never recorded and the oil never paid for.
Turkey got their cut, certain Turkish naval officers
became fabulously wealthy while the Bush cabal poured billions into their
Cayman offshore accounts managed by Bain Capital.
During the Bush era “War on Terror,” up to 40% of
Iraqi crude oil, up to half of what was sent through Turkey on the Baku-Ceyhan
pipeline was stolen. Our investigations between 2005-7 which included
meetings between Gordon Duff and Iraqi and Kurdish leaders in both Erbil and
Tikrit covered this issue.
Active ship identification and locator services
tracked loaded stolen cargoes so obviously any moron could figure it out
VT sources within the Turkish Navy at Ceyhan, Turkey,
reported Exxon tankers loading up to 2 million barrels of Kirkuk light
sweet crude oil at a time did so “off the record.”

Inside Iraq, VT editor Alex Powers, who helped oversee
Iraqi oil sales and production for Paul Bremmer, confirmed these findings.
4 tankers at a time loaded, only two were listed and
Iraq was paid for. This went on for years.
Russian reconnaissance footage have shown oil is being
smuggled through ISIS-held areas in Syria into Turkey day and night. There are
vehicles carrying oil, lined up in a chain going beyond the horizon.
Vladimir Putin accused Turkey of allowing ISIS
Terrorists to run a “living oil pipe” across its border as he upped the ante in
the row over the downing of a Russian jet.
The Russian President said that reconnaissance
footage, shared with world leaders at the G20 summit earlier this month, showed
that oil was being smuggled through terrorist-held areas in Syria into Turkey
“day and night”. There were “vehicles, carrying oil, lined up in a chain going
beyond the horizon”, he claimed.
Speaking after talks at the Kremlin with the French
President Francois Hollande, Putin accused Ankara of false naivety over ISIS’s
huge oil operation. “Let’s assume that Turkey’s political leadership knows
nothing about it – it’s theoretically possible, albeit hard to believe,” he
said. “There may be elements of corruption and insider deals. They should deal
with it.”
Putin has gone for the jugular after the Turkish
military shot down the Russian SU-24 jet after accusing it of violating its
airspace during an operation in northern Syria. The incident is thought to be
the first time in 50 years that a NATO member has downed a Russian plane.
Turkey is acutely sensitive to claims that it is
turning a blind eye to ISIS, a view held not only by Russia but also by Western
states who believe that Turkey has not done enough to prevent terrorists from
slipping across its 500-mile border with Syria;
