In 2004, together with director Theo van Gogh, she made Submission, a film about the oppression of women in conservative Islamic cultures. Ms. Hirsi Ali is currently a Resident Fellow at the American Enterprise Institute.Clive Crook is a senior editor of The Atlantic and chief Washington commentator of The Financial Times.

Look at how Chinese, Russian, North Korean operatives conduct their business and the CIA would seem like a saint. CIA is sanguinary?Maybe you are right, but what is this? Go to //atomtruth,blogspot,com (replace comas with periods and look at the first video then come back and tell me what you saw)

I think he is referring to the death threats posted by others and how this woman can't get out of her house without a security detail.

Now, you are telling me that Venezuela, Saudi Arabia, Iran, UAE, Nigeria, Kuwait, Russia, etc. love to share their profits with their people? BTW, you mention big oil but you failed to mention that over 73% of the crude reserves in the world is owned by nationalized companies and not the big oil companies such as Chevron, Shell, Exxon M, etc. That means Saudi Arabia, UAE, Venezuela, Nigeria, are not only benefiting from their own NOCs, but also from being huge stock holders of the big oil comp

So whatever Exxon Mobil makes from buying and refining the crude from Iraq must share with the Iraqi government. This is extremely beneficial to Iraq as Exxon will bring huge profits. The larger the profit the larger cut Iraq takes, aside from having its own NOC. Saddam on the other hand, pretty much had all of Iraqs crude nationalized and nothing really went to the Iraqis. Same goes to Saudi Arabia now.
EmbassyRome (November 30, 1999 at 12:00 am)
These have the crude and operational control of a most of their oil fields such as in Iran, Qatar, Saudi, Venezuela, Nigeria, etc. Iraqi law calls for profit sharing. Meaning that Chevron, BP, Exxon, etc. profits will be shared with the Iraqi government and these agreements are also temporary. The cut goes to all the investors (which include many of the same OPEC countries) who have their own NOCs themselves, Big-Oil, but a percentage of that profit has to go to Iraqis to distribute nationally
EmbassyRome (November 30, 1999 at 12:00 am)
These companies are public companies meaning that anyone can buy shares. For example, companies such as Coca-Cola owns a huge amt of Exxon stock, but who owns Coca-cola? Saudi Arabia is the leading investor of Coca-Cola and a whole array of other companies that are large investors or the Big oil co.Also, you do know that the biggest oil producers have their own NOCs. Saudi has AMRCO and Iraq has its own as well. I'm going to have to continue below...

So according to you, there is no distinction between oil producer countries, where the big Oil companies buy the crude, where the big oil companies have some operational control of the oil fields with who takes the cut? Usually, the largest companies such as Exxon Mobil, BP, Shell, Conoco, buy the crude from Saudi Arabia (with the worlds largest reserves), etc.

There is no such thing as "a good faction of Islam", for, as with any Cult or Supremacist Ideology allowing any part of it to remain breeds a festering extremist underworld group (Laskar Jihad/Al Qaeda/Taliban/Hamas/Hezbollah/Fatah...) of bitterness and resentment that will rise and return at a future date to again seek and destroy "infidels/non-Muslims". Barbaric cults like Islam do not respect "good" followers, therefore "good" followers by their own beliefs are an anathema to any other cause.

"I could cite you thousands of articles"ok start with 1"Look at AP, AFP"I did(associated press) I found;"According to the Oil Ministry official, BP will submit a proposal for the Rumaila oil field, Chevron for West Qurna stage 1, Exxon for Zubair, and Shell for Missan and Kirkuk"BTW dont think you can crawl out of this one with the "going to" crap, as I have stated from the start its not about "where" the oil is going(I had already mentioned asian markets) but about "who" has a cut
EmbassyRome (November 30, 1999 at 12:00 am)
Sweetie, do you believe the left pundits or the facts?I could cite you thousands of articles, but most importantly ask anyone who works in the oil industry.Not a drop of oil is going to the US. Research and you'll find out.Look at AP, AFP, GeoStrategic Direct, etc. etc. etc. etc. etc.What you just wrote is the typical cut and paste from a site such as media matter/daily kos BS.
