  • So much for the invisible hand of the free market. It seem quite ironic that Texas today is such a champion for deregulating the Texas oil industry.

  • @demarcos69 The 'truthers' were probably only interested in J.D. Rockefeller and possibly the Rothchilds, and then they left.

  • @TheLivirus Nvm I found it. It's called Achnacarry.

    Can anyone hear what he calls the castle? I can't hear him. I think I recognize it. It's strange because I never visited it when I was in scotland. I only drove by and watched it from the distance... if it's that castle that is.

  • Looks like people lost interest after the first part..

  • Calouste Gulbenkian also helped Alexander Mantashev in getting started in the oil business. Mantashev was also Armenian from the same city and he built the largest oil pipeline at the time stretching from Baku to the Black Sea.

  • To his everlasting shame Walter Teagle was also involved with IG Farben and the Bank for International Settlements.

  • I am surprised, shocked in fact, that the Armenian was even paid a dime...Considering that ww1 was nothing but a rush by the European Super powers to get into the middle-east and suck up the energy source for the Industrial powers of cars and steel. After all, the Turks didnt get a dime of what was ALL theirs if those dummies didnt stick their butts in a dick fight. thanks man, this is valuable history. I heard of the red line....this gives more depth into it.

  • Control of Iraqi oil has NEVER involved the best interests of its citizens. This account of history shows us so. If anyone every tells you: "Iraqi oil will help pay for the rebuilding of the country and help pay for the wars." My friend, you have found yourself a first class liar.
