“Biden administration has been selling off as it is an easy source of cash.”
Don’t forget selling off Syrian oil to fund moar war and raping Iraqi women as an MWR signup activity.
“Don’t forget selling off Syrian oil to fund moar war and raping Iraqi women as an MWR signup activity.”
This is a myth. First of all, Syrian production is de minimis. It peaked in 1995 at just 225,000 barrels and is now down to 28,000. That’s the number claimed by Assad; in reality it’s probably just half that volume. Second, the only US oil venture in Syria was Delta Cresent Energy’s, which started in 2020 and was shut down in 2021.
All told, if the US “stole” ALL of Syria’s annual oil production it would be a rounding error in comparison to what we produce in a single day.
