sick of listening to the news, so many different views , stories,conspiracy theories. would make you go mad if you believed all of what you read on news and on facebook.

really trying to stop listening to all this *** now but its there everyday and unavoidable.

Makes sense to me, Israel needs oil and no legitimate Arab state will sell to them.
ISIS needs the cash and will sell oil to anyone.
If our government had the brains to realise that stopping the sale of oil would defeat ISIS far quicker and at a tiny fraction of the cost of a bombing campaign the problem would be solved.

I presume that's why they're bombing oilfields, Eddie?

There's no obvious reason why the report should be untrue. They need some fuel to keep the lights on in the nuclear plants they don't have.

[EDDIE51]

They have only just started bombing the oil fields.
The export oil is transported to Turkey by tanker , destroying tankers on the route to Turkey would stop the export and be a far better plan. The Russians have photographed 20 mile long queues of oil tanker trucks waiting to cross the Turkish border.

I should be very suspicious of anything published by Global Research, which has links with far right conspiracy theorists and economists.
Its founder is the Canadian Michel Chossudovsky, and it has links to European commentators sympathetic to Slobodan Milosevic and Vladimir Putin. And links to the neo-fascist International Eurasian Movement.
These people's agenda has always fascinated me. They are dead against NATO, the EU, "Zionism" etc etc etc. But it isn't clear exactly what they actually stand for, other than authoritarianism of varying sorts.

thanks for that, ichkeria. The report itself cites Arab and Russian sources, so they aren't necessarily to be taken at face value.

[ichkeria]

They may be right, but I merely issue a serious caveat about their credibility

The question of who buys IS oil is a fascinating one indeed.

[EDDIE51]

What is not in question is that the oil is exported via Turkey who are members of NATO and supposedly on 'our side'.

[ichkeria]

The question of who is whose ally is really irrelevant.
If there is oil, people will buy it, regardless of where they think the money goes.

[Togo]

And of course certain factions would very much like to blame the rise of Isis on, say Israel.

[vulcan42]

Well of course, there is always the gospel according to goodlife who believes isis was created by the CIA so in effect Israel is buying from the Americans.

Here is more on the Russian allegations about Turkey and IS/Daesh/whatever oil

[woofgang]

Its not unavoidable. I don’t watch the TV news as a habit, nor habitually read the papers and my facebook wall is kept politics free. I do make sure that I am au fait with headline news and seek out more facts if I feel the need.

[Peter Pedant]

some sense from Itchie again
i dunno how he does it

I was gonna say the report was internet trolling ....

[ichkeria]

It's actually Der Speigel which analysed those pictures ...

[keyplus90]

Am I shocked to know this? No, not really.

ISIS stands for "Asraeli secret intelligence services".

Dieseldick - I don't think you are sick of listening to all this. I believe if I change Israel with, say Lebanon, Pakistan, or any other Muslim country then you would be fine.

[DTCwordfan]

Both Muslims and Israelis are circumcised, say no more.....

[DTCwordfan]

Ooops, I meant circumscribed by traders.....

[mikey4444]

I can't understand why the oil wells under ISIS control haven't been put out of action before now. They should be a simple thing to bomb. We can damage ISIS substantially if we cut off their flow of funds.

[sevenOP]

ichkeria : "It's actually Der Speigel which analysed those pictures ... "

You have no proof der spiegel analysed those pictures, and I have not found any proof online.

"How Islamic State Oil Flows to Israel" is as plausible
