It’s no secret that Western powers and their Gulf allies were the instigators of the Syrian conflict in 2011, as gas pipelines through Syria to Turkey, or to put through Lebanon to the Mediterranean. This says the US-German historian F. William Engdahl and risk advisor.
The pipelines are only part of the story, he stressed. “There’s a lot of oil found in the Golan Heights. Israel has claimed the oil, but the Golan Heights in 1967 during the Six Day War taken illegally from Syria, “Engdahl writes in an article for New Eastern Outlook.
Genie Energy
This problem is according to Engdahl part of the Western energy game. In New Jersey, the oil company, Genie Energy is established. The strategic advisory board of the company consists of people like Dick Cheney, James Woolsey, Bill Richardson, Lord Jacob Rothschild, Rupert Murdoch, Larry Summers and Michael Steinhardt.
In 2013 Genie Energy received of the Netanyahu government exclusive rights to drill for oil and gas in the southern part of the Golan Heights. On October 8, 2015 announced the Israeli subsidiary of Genie Energy, Afek Oil & Gas, the discovery of a huge oilfield in the Golan Heights.
“The Golan Heights are illegally occupied by Israel”, Engdahl said, adding that the UN has repeatedly held that Israel has no right to illegally occupied Syrian Golan Heights.
For American businessmen and Israeli politicians —the Syrian government’s plans are in the way their oil projects. The disintegration of Syria would suit them well, says the historian.
In this great game in the Middle East involved a number of regional and international players, including the United States, NATO and the Gulf States. “As an oil company from New Jersey – with the ranks architect of the Iraq war, Dick Cheney, former CIA chief James Woolsey and Lord Jacob Rothschild – huge amounts of oil found and Russia Syrian President Assad has come to the aid, is suddenly much more at stake, “emphasizes Engdahl.
