    It all has to do with the economics of import/export. Somehow in some stupid way, if American oil fetches a higher price than Syrian oil with shipping factored, US companies will absolutely export our crude while importing foreign crude because it makes sense on a spreadsheet.

      The United States military is stealing 60 trucks worth of oil because it’ll save money? The US produces 13 million barrels of crude a day, but it’s worth their time to steal 60 tanker trucks worth?

          You don’t think it’s a bit silly to suggest that 60 tanker trucks is going to be worth time? What’s that even worth, have you checked?

            I don’t know why you’re fixated on “60 tanker trucks.”

            According to witnesses, the looting caravan consisted of 69 tankers loaded with oil and another 45 with wheat stolen from the silos in the city.

            Do you believe that this one eyewitness report represents the entirety of what the US has done in Syria over the past decade?
