Answer 1 :
No, because they neglected to install proper meters. They have no idea how much is being lost. This means they don't know how much oil flow through the pipes compared to how much came out at the end. I heard this on NPR
Answer 2 :
What do you think? No, obviously!
Answer 3 :
ever been to iraq? if the answer is yes, then go back there and look at the country and ask that again.....if no....then dont worry about it. there are to many iraqis and soldiers bleeding to death everyday to worry about oil.
Answer 4 :
Sure, there is no accounting because they did not take any.
Answer 5 :
If they took Oil for the next Ten years it wouldn't compensate them enough for the loss of Human Life and War Materials......
Answer 6 :
If they did that Halliburton and Big Oil Companies will have to show how much they have stolen and pilfered under the pretext pf re-building IRAQ????????. No that will NEVER happen under the crooked administration of GW BUSH !!!
Answer 7 :
i`ve heard shell,esso and bp are trying to keep oil reserves for next 30 years.
Answer 8 :
The USA is the occupying power and takes what it likes and that means everything and anything. I spoke to a tanker Captain and he said every drop of oil loaded at Basrah goes direct to the USA. (currently approx 3million BPD) USA officials run the Oil Ministry in Baghdad and the Ministry is surrounded by US troops. The only clearing bank in Iraq (TBI) is run by the USA (JP Morgan) the other Iraq banks cant get a licence. The Iraqi Central Bank (CBI) has no money and cannot issue guarantees etc it must use TBI who do not cooperate. The whole issue is a disgrace and a pure capitalist and imperialist exploitation of Iraq, one of the oil richest countries in the world where currently its people have no water, food, electricity, eduction or jobs. Where they cannot trace billions of dollars that are missing? All thanks to the new puppet government installed by the USA. The answer to your question: NO and they never will or they would have to admit to theft of a nations assets and would have to repay it.
Answer 9 :
The US is doing the pilfering - its main unstated reason for the war in Iraq.
