2. You're about 30 years too late according to this report by BBC

'US ready to seize Gulf oil in 1973'
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/middle_east/3333995.stm

News released during the New Year's holiday in order to reach as few as possible. Ongoing handwringing by the DoD has been contemplated since the movie "Three Days of the Condor", with its premise of seizing oilfields must'nt reach the MSM.

Nowadays the MSM is generally taken to be part and parcel of Operation Mockingbird, so anything 'discovered' will usually be after-the-fact !

I suggest checking out www.oilempire.us for critiques of US policy related to oil. Also, www.fromthewilderness.com is on the money and mentions many things the MSM won't dare touch.
