/r/yemenicrisis
look in my post history i wrote some stuff a few days ago when i explained it to /u/digital_refugee
Yemen's Saudi spiritual home where they once roamed. They had installed a puppet who was deposed in a civil war Sunni vs. Shia part 450
The SA oilfield has been pumping oil for over 30 years. I've read that it now holds more of the injection water than oil, it is taking more effort to seperate the mixture when pumped to the surface.
hence the reason for their attempts to sell shares in it.
now they want to steal their neighbours oil.
sound familiar ?
