Global Warming PING!
Islamic State earns about $500 million a year from its oil revenues. But according to former CIA director Mike Morrell, US fighter aircraft have been ordered not to bomb their oil wells in case they cause “environmental damage.”

“Environmental damage” is simply a handy excuse/explanation for why Hussein refused to allow the military to degrade ISIS’ economic infrastructure. Hussein and Turkey’s Erdogan wanted ISIS to survive IMHO.
If the nazis had known the power of the green movement they’d won the war.
Since the Korean Conflict politicians have set the rules of engagement. By following PC guidelines during times of war, these idiots are killing more Americans than would be otherwise with their PC decisions. If Truman had followed these asinine guidelines, we’d still be fighting door-to-door in Japan. War is ugly. Let the generals direct the fight and end it quickly.
Their fathers, grandfathers and further back ancestors who died in all the wars for our country must be rolling over in their graves...
along with Stanley Dunham, the grandfather of Obama, who fought in WWII...

Its a pretext and a stupid one at that. People with names are making millions off of that oil. If you want to know who is connected, just look at who is protecting it.
Global Warming PING!
DANG!
Thanks for posting this!
a Big Hoorah to James Delingpole for writing it as well!
Seems to me the opponents of ISIS would be eager to retake the wells rather than see them destroyed, mayhaps that has something to do with it.
That's within their haul capability at 300 to 350 truckloads a day (approx 200 bbls/truck, without regard to weight restrictions you'd find in the US).
Bomb/strafe the trucks, and you eliminate the transport.
The wellheads don't have to be targeted.
