    I wasn't aware that the Russian mafia controlled any gas pipelines in Europe. :P

    Iraq still has vast reserves of both oil and gas. The Anglo-Americans where shocked by the lack of production capacity in Iraq and the Iraqi oil industry was seriously undeveloped under Saddam.

    Iranian and Iraqi oil is the heavy sulfurous Brent crude kind and not the light sweet North Sea type. This type of heavy oil is used industrial, to power ships and for heating. It's like sludge and is nasty toxic stuff!

    Irans a long way off from mastering oil refinery technology and producing it's own gasoline. Irans "civil" nuclear program is also joke especially in light of the fact that the county in so rich in oil. Hydo is better for electricity production than nuclear and Iran has a lot of snow-capped, mountainous areas.

    Iceland has geothermal energy and they have more electricity, than they know what to do with. Perfect place to set up a energy guzzling, Aluminum ore processing plant Iceland.

    UAE was probably relaying the info to the U.S.

    Oman uncovers 'UAE spy network'



    Oman claims to have uncovered a United Arab Emirates (UAE) spy network in the Gulf Arab state that targeted its government and military.

    The UAE have denied having links to any such network while a regional security analyst on Sunday said that he found the allegations puzzling.

    "This is all very murky," Theodore Karasik, director of research and development at the Dubai-based Institute for Near East and Gulf Military Analysis, said.

    "One possibility is that the UAE wants to know more about Iran-Oman relations because of Tehran and Muscat's long ties in security and military cooperation."

    Oman's state news agency reported that its "security services uncovered a spying network belonging to the state security apparatus of the United Arab Emirates, targeting ... Oman and the way its government and military work".

    It gave few details but an Omani government official, speaking on condition of anonymity due to the sensitivity of the matter, said a number of Omani nationals had been arrested, including some who worked for the government.

    The Omani official said the arrests dated back about two months, but gave no other details.

    Oman's news agency ONA said the suspects would be sent to court.

    The UAE foreign ministry, in a statement carried by the state news agency WAM, said "the UAE expresses its full willingness to cooperate with ... Oman in any investigations that it carries out in full transparency to uncover (those) who try to mar the relations between the two countries."

    Oman maintains good relations with Iran and was instrumental in helping to negotiate the release of one of three US hikers accused by Tehran of straying from Iraq into Iranian territory.

    Are the Brits still involved with the Abadan oil refinery? I'm assuming they are feeding supply lines to Iraq from there. The Brits occupied southern Iraq.... Basra to be exact.

In addition, their relationship and ties with Israel run deep alongside the U.S.A. Also, where ever there is oil, be sure to find the Brits involved.... somehow.
    Iran blames British Secret Intelligence Service for attack on nuclear scientists

    November 30, 2010 | 17:08

    British Secret Intelligence Service MI6 has a hand in organizing terrorist acts directed against two Iranian nuclear scientists, said Spokesman for Iranian Foreign Ministry Ramin Mehmanparast, Iranian MEHR news agency reported.

    “The main accused in the act of terror are the Western countries, so zealously applying for the role of human rights defenders. They use this (terror) as a kind of tool for exerting political pressure on the independent countries,” the agency quotes Mehmanparast.

    According to him, the scientists have repeatedly been threatened and are being threatened with terror.

    “We do not believe that the latest threats voiced by the official representative of British intelligence, are not linked to this act of terror,” he said.

    As NEWS.am reported previously, on November 29, two Iranian nuclear scientists were attacked. Cars, carrying the professors, went off when they jointly with their family members left home for work. As a result, one of them died and his wife and another passenger were seriously injured.
