Cheney, Rothschild, Murdoch and Co. Start Drilling for Oil in Syria
TEHRAN (Basirat)- Afek oil and gas are hoping to soon find out what goodies lie beneath the occupied part of Syria known as the Golan Heights and violate international law in the process.
In May, having finished the flow testing phase, they announced the beginning of the analysis phase for the Ness-2 drilling site
The task is to identify the contents of the ground wells and what products might come from it, a task Afek said will be carried out by their own scientists as well as "external international experts.”

At the end of 2015 Afek announced that it had found considerable reserves of oil under the Golan.
Afek is an Israeli subsidiary of the New Jersey-based firm Genie Energy Ltd., whose investors include Rupert Murdoch, Dick Cheney, Lord Jacob Rothschild, James Woolsey, along with a number of current and former U.S. politicians.
Claire Bernish explains the U.S. involvement in the Syrian quagmire and how it relates to Afek’s oil exploration in the following article via Activist Post :
Israel’s occupation of the Golan Heights region violates international law — thus, Israeli permits granting Afek the ostensible right to perform exploratory tests of a possible "large reservoir” of natural gas and light oil is also illegal.
But in a world where Big Oil remains powerful enough to drive foreign policy of the U.S. empire, this direct violation of the Geneva Convention might not even be worthy of a footnote — except to the people of Syria.
