AMERIKA --NO OIL FOR YOU ! !

IS this SAD or what  ?      China gets the oil and Iran gets the real estate ....................  

What did we get?     We got 5,300+ and counting fresh crosses in Arlington, and at least $2Trillion in debt and counting, which we may never pay back, except in terms of lowered standards of living for our working class people ..............    And, oh yes, we got maybe tens of thousands of fresh recruits for Al Qaeda;    "martyrs" who will live out their lives dreaming of ways to kill Americans all over the world ...........

July 1, 2009    Few Bidders to develop Iraqi Oil and Gas Fields.

 

BAGHDAD — After the day long event, which was broadcast live on national television, the government came away with just a single deal struck from among the six giant oil fields and two gas fields it had put up for bid.

 

The single successful contract went to a pairing of BP and the China National Petroleum Corporation for the largest field on offer: Rumaila, near the southern city of Basra, which has proven reserves of 17 billion barrels.
