You know Mosadeq was overthrown by the CIA at the request of BP for he wished to add an extra $.025tax on every barrel of crude that left the country.
Last I knew we were giving our friends in Saudi Arabia about $15 per barrel that left their beloved sand.
The oil terminals and all the wells were built in the early 60's with minor modifications and additions.
And no offence, but watching you guys falling over each other to defend big oil and your boy kings close connections with big oil is like watching a drunk guy hit on the fat pig at the end of the bar.
