Cyprus natural gas, Israel, Turkey, and Russia

Postby jwfid » Sun Sep 25, 2011 10:56 pm

John and others,

When I read this story on Zero Hedge by contributor 'Bruce Krasting', I thought of you and figured that you might find this interesting.

Is it possible that we have the old powers Russia and Turkey in a mini cold war of sorts over a possible big natural gas field? I wonder how Greece and Israel figure in this too? Over the last few months I've found Bruce Krasting to be a guy who likes to speculate, but sometimes he's on the right track.
