Oil tanker with $100 million Kurdish oil cargo, (mysteriously goes missing?), off Texas coast, not a million miles away from the spooky Bermuda Triangle!!! Or perhaps they just turned their transponder off Amazing how reliant the U.S is on transponders telling them where things are in their air and sea space. perhaps the Pentagon should invest in some surveillance equipment! Now what could possibly have happened to all that illicit oil?

Interesting article on the missing no longer tanker and the battle for control of Iraq/Kurdish oil. http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/behind-kurdish-oil-mystery-cash-power-grabs-battle-statehood-1463866
I had a look at the article and the same tanker has been 'disappearing' getting the oil off-loaded and then miraculously re-appearing in the same spot. I suppose though that right now with the Kurds helping fight ISIS, those who would otherwise might have been interested in talking about autonomy of Kurdistan and smuggling of oil won't for fear of offending those who are trying to fight the terrorist group. In any case since Turkey says they recognize Kurdistan as a country, they could sell all their oil to Turkey.
