To me it seems like they might really want to build a natural gas pipeline, take the profits, and possibly may be financing it with drug money.

Ya know, for a country that supposedly barges in everywhere and just takes the oil with our mighty military, we sure do get a lousy return on that investment.

Now get your tin foil hat off my lawn, I have a moon landing to fake.

Your country as a whole certainly doesn't profit, but there's certain corporations doing extremely well out of your wars

That's the problem, the country doesn't profit, which is why we can't know what is really going on.
