Um...Yea, Hows About Telling Me Where The Hell America's Oil Went?

Yea, i know it went down a while ago..(colloquially and literally)

You remember, that crazy huge sinkhole in Daisetta TX back in early May...

The story told is that a naturally formed salt dome collapsed as a result of oil drilling in the area. Here's my read...

Pretty much all oil pockets around the Houston, Baytown mega oil wasteland were all played out about 25 years ago. What there is in the area, is hundreds of square miles of future EPA superfund sites still under seige by the petrogarchy, and the 'National Strategic Petrolium Reserve' which George Dubya has supposedly been pumping oodles and oodles of oil in to...

Now where do you suppose that strategic oil reserve is allegedly stored that GW said he was squirreling away?

You guessed it....

 

The origin of the strategic petrolium reserve?

Secretary of the Interior Harold Ickes advocated the stockpiling of emergency crude oil in 1944. President Truman's Minerals Policy Commission proposed a strategic oil supply in 1952. President Eisenhower suggested an oil reserve after the 1956 Suez Crisis. The Cabinet Task Force on Oil Import Control recommended a similar reserve in 1970.

Harold LeClair Ickes (March 15, 1874February 3, 1952) was a United States administrator and politician. He served as Secretary of the Interior for thirteen years, from 1933 to 1946, and was responsible for implementing much of President Franklin D. Roosevelt's "New Deal". He is the father of Harold M. Ickes, who was deputy Chief of Staff under President Bill Clinton and is an adviser to Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton.

The US always seems to be refilling the SPR, but other than taking some out during Hurricane Katrina, it makes one wonder where that black gold got off to.

My guess is that oil tankers regularly move that commodity to that SLC in the ME.

Which is probably where most of that Ft. Knox gold is hibernating.

All to fulfill Israel's strategy of becoming independent of Uncle Sucker's welfare checks, AKA "Clean Break: Securing the Realm"

Which Israel will accomplish by cleaning out our bank vaults.
