Iran is open for business, financed by Barack
Obama, Hillary Clinton and John Kerry.
Crossing the Tigris, Jordan, and Euphrates rivers and winding for 1,180
miles across the birthplace of Christian civilization, a new pipe line will
soon begin transporting oil from the rich fields of Iraq and Iran to the Mediterranean
sea coast.
At some points, the line descends into valleys more than 800 feet
below sea level and at others has to rise over mountains. It is estimated that
the twin ten-inch pipes of the line will transport 30,000,000 barrels of oil a
year.
In spite of dust storms, heat, and the rugged nature of the country,
gangs of welders have been laying as much as four miles of pipe in an
eight-hour shift. Many American methods are in use. Iraq, formerly Mesopotamia,
is the site of some of the world’s richest oil fields and the new pipe line
will cut the cost of getting this oil to outside markets.
