Now the deranged marauding Arabs want their oil back, but so does Bashar and the Allrighties. The Arabs get a share of the oil when they agree to stop running around with their bizarre violent religion.
“Where is our oil? We won’t accept after today to transport our wealth outside our areas,” said a banner held by demonstrators in the village of Al-Shanan, pictures of which were sent by residents to Reuters and published on social media.
Residents, protesters and tribal chiefs said convoys of tankers from the nearby oil field of al Omar, the largest under YPG control in Syria, had been turned back by local mobs angered by what they see as theft of oil from their region.“No to Kurdish occupation,” chanted protesters in Husayn, one of the towns witnessing large protests.Spearheaded by the Kurdish YPG militia, the SDF has been the main US partner in Syria and has driven Daesh out of a swathe of the country’s north and east over the last four years.The YPG has formally declined comment on the unrest but two officials privately told Reuters they had begun talks with tribal elders over demands from local residents that include ending arbitrary arrests.The SDF has continued to sell oil to the Syrian government in Damascus despite US misgivings. It has increased shipments in recent weeks to ease acute fuel shortages caused partly by US sanctions on Iran, a main financial supporter of the Syrian government, which are hurting the Syrian economy.By ousting Daesh from Deir Ezzor, the YPG laid its hands on some of Syria’s biggest oil fields, beating the Syrian army and its Russian backers to the prize.
