A retired Air Force colonel thinks so.

"You look for patterns. Patterns tell you things," says Brandli, who has masters degrees in meteorology, aeronautics and astronautics, and the author of "Satellite Meteorology" for the Air Force's Air Weather Service in 1976. "With night photos, you can distinguish natural gas burnoff, which looks globular, from city lights. And suddenly, over just a few weeks, we've got this straight line of lights leading all the way to those beautiful wells in southeastern Iraq.

"If you're building pipelines, you've got to have power, you've got to have light -- trucks and personnel and food and all sorts of support. If I had to bet, I'd say it looks like we're running Iraqi oil through Kuwait. It would make sense, because Kuwait's got its infrastructure intact."

"Palm Bay's Hank Brandli generated a buzz last month when the retired Air Force colonel suggested the United States had run a pipeline the length of Kuwait to siphon off Iraqi oil to help finance the war. Unfortunately, amid Washington's hall of mirrors, we're no closer to solving this mystery than when the story ran in June.

Rewind: In 1976, near the end of a career of handling classified projects, Brandli produced an analyst's bible for the Air Force Weather Service, a book called "Satellite Meteorology." Although he left the USAF shortly thereafter, Brandli took his passion into retirement with him by computer-rigging his home with receiving dishes that allowed him to download unclassified images from American and Russian weather satellites whenever they passed over. "

I can�t believe the major news outlets haven�t picked up on this. I watched the CSPAN footage of the USAID trip to Iraq in July and everywhere they went, Bechtel was the primary contractor and nothing had been done yet. Which would make sense since they have everyone working on this pipeline. At least we know where there priorities are.

I've read and posted that article before. It's very interesting to say the least. Now we know how Bush is paying for the Iraq war.

With all this oil grabing going on it kind of makes you wonder if maybe the world oil supply is lower then we all have been told.

No I don't Fran and Ollie. Should I?

I think a secret pipeline is Cheney's wet dream. Its why he gets up in the morning. He probably flies over once a week to check on the progress.

Apologies for posting an old topic.

The North Sea, Britians major oil source, has less than 10 years left. I was always wondering whether this may be a reason why Tony Blair would follow GWB into war with Iraq. Perhaps Bush offered Blair a discount in all oil production if he helped him out.

Wouldn't it be easier if scientists could develop urine into being a substitute for oil. I did see on TV once a person from American developed a urine powered car.

But it isn't as crazy as it seems, if Leaders could put as much money into science as they do into War they could easily develop various other forms of energy. Or perhaps this guy is right from my other post ... www.abovetopsecret.com...
