Pre- 9/11 plan to attack Afghanistan
RE: Centgas, Unocal, Delta Oil
January 1998, that the Taliban had signed an agreement allowing a 1,272km, $2-billion, 1.9-billion-cubic- feet-per-day natural gas pipeline project to proceed. The proposed pipeline, according to the US government's Energy Information Administration (EIA), would have transported natural gas from Turkmenistan's Dauletabad natural gas field to Pakistan, and was projected to run from Dauletabad south to the Afghan border, through Herat and Kandahar, to Quetta in Pakistan before linking up with Pakistan's natural gas grid at Sui
By March, however, Unocal, the company leading the project, had announced that details would not be finalised immediately due to the civil war in Afghanistan....
Unocal, however, was no stranger to unpopular governments: it was, after all, part of the consortium building a pipeline in Burma that human rights groups slammed for using forced labour and cooperating with a military dictatorship. Among the other members of that consortium, incidentally, was an oil company named Halliburton -- of which the CEO was none other than current Vice- President Richard Cheney. Unocal and Halliburton share other affinities, however: at the Collateral Damage Conference of the Cato Institute on 23 June 1998, Cheney himself made some of these clear, noting that "70 to 75 per cent of [Halliburton's] business is energy related, serving customers like Unocal, Exxon, Shell, Chevron and many other oil companies around the world."
But back to Afghanistan. Until Unocal relinquished its shares in Centgas, it had held an 85 per cent stake in conjunction with the Saudi Arabian company Delta Oil...
It is true that war has generally been good to Halliburton; in 1999, according to the Tribune, its Brown and Root division won substantial portions of Pentagon contracts worth over $1 billion "for support services for U.S. troops in the Balkans and at the Incirlik air base in Turkey" -- where the US planes that patrol the northern no- fly zone over Iraq are stationed. The firm, interestingly, also won a $100 million contract to improve security at US embassies worldwide.
A history that is no coincidence. It was just another oil deal, with a few twists and turns...tens of thousands of innocent people got killed, US government lied, and here we are in Iraq.So we allowed 9/11 to happen then created an excuse to invaded Iraq...just read. Its very clear and its all about a group of greedy men wanting to get fat rich on oil at any expense, including 9/11, which was clearly covered up from the very beginning.
