[Pearls Before Swine]

U.S. crude oil storage is filling up with unaccounted-for oil. There is a lot more oil in storage than the amount that can be accounted for by domestic production and imports.

This is a twist. I would have expected, that like Fort Knox, the amount of oil in a government storage would be far LESS than accounted for.

Either way, follow the money. I would have expected the clandestine looting of the strategic supply to have been a way to raise money that wasn't accounted for. Here, the opposite possibility is being raised--namely that the US is laundering foreign funds by buying illegal oil. I wonder if that's where some of State's missing $6 Billion went?

The last line of the article:

The truth—however improbable—is that inventories are probably much lower than what is reported.

OTOH, if the reports of tankers lined up for miles in the gulf was accurate & is still taking place, we have to think that inventories are indeed as large as reported.

We have awakened in 1984. Little or nothing we are told can be assumed to be truthful or accurate.
