oil fields on fire
 

He exploded them in southern IRAQ.


This is going to be a disaster :mad:

marshmallows anyone :feels-hot

What a surprise. :(

indeed

Nothing about it on http://news.bbc.co.uk/ yet.

But.... Bush asked them not to do it ?!?! How could he??...

heh :)
Whatta great pity for yankees, right ? :)

I know there are assholes among you, who consider iraqi oil as america's property :)
BLOW DICK, bitches ! :)

Just 3 or 4 ... for all we know, it's the surgical strike marines
doing some propaganda work.

Wait until there's lots before you assume Saddam issued the
order.

The disaster started when that jackass Bush was illegally elected. Of course Iraw is destroying the oil... that's the whole goal of this stupid fucking war. They're just killing the hostages.

Nice post Charly,
Pretty much the best site on the web for news and everything else. Being British, I'm biassed though :Graucho

However, can be a little slow with the news updates.

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

a sad day in the history... lets pray for the oil ... :1orglaugh

They are reporting as of 11:30est that flames have been seen, and that 3 or 4 wells may be on fire. Nothing is confirmed.

No, it's not ours. But that doesn't mean we can't get it at a discount! lol. Sounds fair to me as payment from the Iraqi people for freeing them.

Do you think the US will really use the oil to rebuild Iraq and for humanitarian needs for the Iraqi people like they are saying on tv, or is the military really going to keep all the oil and send it to the US?

Noooooo this war aint about oil... people will count the number of oil fields on fire and wont give a fuck about the number of victims and refugees.

what do you really think will happen?

after all its a disaster in iraq and usa doesn't give a fuck about it since they started the war...
so chill out , you know ITS NOT ABOUT THE OIL!:1orglaugh

I don't know.... That's why I'm asking....

Oh yes, for sure.. It is not about the oil... So what is it all about then ?? Saddam ?
C'mon, gee.. Why being so stupid ? They were waiting for 12 years, and right now, when the WHOLE WORLD is against the war - they began it !

you know why it happened NOW ? Because USA national debt is 6.5 trillions of dollars, and without cheap oil your fucking economy will collapse

you didn't get it, it was a cynical post...

pull your head out of your ass. we don't have 35 countries backing us for nothing. or is it more now?

oil isn't the only thing that fuels our economy.

C'mon you stupid piece of shit.
There are much more countries and people who hates you.
That's the first part ..
On the other hand - the governments are NOT the countries

Lets take Estonia for example
Oficially the government are for the war- but among the people there are only 12 % of them .. Remaining 88 % are against the war. So does it mean that Estonia is for the war?

You are the stupidest of anyone I have even !

Even in England, that is your closest friend - there are only 39 % for the war - and others- against it !

So shut the fuck up , idiot

if you take that view in defense for other countries, how can you attack us citizens of the US with that argument? don't contradict yourself.

Do a search on this jokers posts... he has done NOTHING but spew hatrid since he joined.

The portuguese prime minister supports the war. The president doesnt, and the most of the people dont either. Yet, Portugal is on the list.

LOL:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

Because they try to confirm things before going live with them...a rare thing in today's media.

According to Russia T.V. , Rosbalt Journalsists in Iraq have reported that Two oil fires were lit by Iraq on the outskirts of Basra, on top of 17 oil facilities that were destroyed earlier in the day. In the rush to protect the oil, The americans landed straight in the middle of an Iraqi ambush. There is currently heavy fighting taking place, it is believed as many as 300 plus American troops have been killed in the ambush. Two American helicopters have been Downed by what was probably Strellar shoulder launced missilles with all crew on board dead. Russia t.v. is showing live video of the downed american helicopters.

one oil fire has been burning for like 2 weeks.

First day and 300 already dead, not good :(

You sure you got the right war? How are the Russian's reporting this
* LIVE * when the US Militry control's the media. :Graucho

I'm glad someone picked up on that :) Being British, I'm biassed to my beloved bbc website. Its gotta be one of the best sites on the web.

What online news sources do you guys read for an informative stance on the crisis. Its nice to get the opinion of what is being broadcast in other parts of the world.

Please dont say :BangBang: CNN :1orglaugh

could be propoganda... oh wait, no, it's not from the US.

anyone get any sources in the US on this yet?

IS THIS true?

Anyone got a url ?

Holly crap if its true. :(

We already know that nearly the entire population of Earth is against us on this. At this point it doesn't really matter who's announcing their disapproval for this war, it's already begun and all we can do is support our military.

The Arab satellite television channel Al-Arabiya is also showing video of a downed American Black Hawk. They are reporting that elite Republican Gaurd Troops laid the ambush and are now putting the Death Toll at 800 American troops.
Isreali right wing website www.debka.com has just posted there is a fierce fight happening between Iraqi and American troops who were rushed in to secure 2 oil wells near Basra.
Looks like the Iraqis just went on a turkey shoot!

...and why do I doubt this?

Conflict of interest my friend. Russia, Germany and France have huge oil deals tied to Saddam. Obviously they dont want to lose them.


Understand, popular belief is very easy to accept but not always right. Maybe we should of never stopped Hitler, maybe we should of been diplomatic to him until he was raping us up our ass.

Now stfu and sit down, appeasment and diplomatic relations are fucking OVER
