BREAKING: Saudis offer Russia secret oil deal if it drops Syria | |
me,me,me User ID: 43571268 Romania 08/26/2013 07:46 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | [link to www.al-monitor.com] "Bandar arrived in Moscow. The visit was secret. The Saudi Embassy did not follow the usual protocol for Saudi officials visiting Russia." "Bandar then visited Putin’s house on the outskirts of the Russian capital, where they held a closed-door bilateral meeting that lasted four hours." So, If this was a secret closed-door bilateral meeting, then how did the obscure www.al-monitor.com got "the transcripts"? Do you think they keep transcripts of their secret meetings? (especially when they cut the pie) Probably, that KGB translator was the most idiot whistleblower on Earth.. (therefore, KGB's Human Resource manager must be incompetent) This story is 25+ days old already... Why now? and that misleading photo.. - is dated 2007 this story stinks! |

Prince Bandar went on to say that Chechens operating in Syria were a pressure tool that could be switched on and off. WTF |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 44964378 WTF happened to this country where we now have to rely on a fucking Russian ex-hitman to step in and stop the madness? The malleable left elected an American hating, Muslim shitbag. "Moral of the story is I chose a half measure when I should have gone all the way.

DawaSatso User ID: 44905011 United States 08/26/2013 08:52 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Yes I remember that story too. Since then Putin has made oil deals but perhaps not only as a bribe from Saudis. I don't know what the man is thinking. Putin isn't against business and of course the wrong deal can become negative leverage against russia. It's pretty obvious Putin cares a lot about sovereign well-adjusted gov'ts being destroyed, citizens slaughtered in the most horrific ways imaginable..I can't imagine him selling them out so Takfiri mercenaries can take any kind of authority. The same sh*t can happen to Russia on HIS streets, destroy HIS culture. The man's not that stupid. |

DawaSatso User ID: 44905011 United States 08/26/2013 09:10 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | What is so ridiculous Russia doesn't need Saudi oil, Russia is self sufficient in that department. They may even have more oil reserves than the Saudis. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 43157020 Probably more to do with offering transfer of oil via pipelines and 'we won't take away your trade routes'. Deal with the devil and you get yanked around by the nuts. M.E. is being ravaged not just for resources but waterways, pipelines, train transport..trade routes. New Silk Road only this one's made of solid death. Last Edited by DawaSatso on 08/26/2013 09:11 PM |

It's a game of geopolitical chicken being played by US/Western govts vs Russia/BRIC. Who wins the spoils? |

Carnac The Magnificent User ID: 14415865 United States 08/26/2013 10:50 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The strategic jitters pushed Brent crude prices to a five-month high of $112 a barrel. “We are only one incident away from a serious oil spike. The market is a lot tighter than people think,” said Chris Skrebowski, editor of Petroleum Review. Quoting: DanielPT We are floating in oil here in the mid-west USA. I can't GIVE the shit away... shut down two wells last month because there is no way to transport it out -- so much oil in the system that the spot well head prices are dropping... $25 below published price... still can't get out of the tank. Have a nice day = GFY. GFY = Go Fuck Yourself. If this offends you then have a nice day. |
