Natural News dropped a bombshell yesterday, and I want to give you an
excerpt below. Americans are smart enough to know that our government
would not send 200 armed agents to protect some tortoises. It is always
about money or resources/assets that can be turned into money. Mike
Adams reports:
The Bureau of Land Management says its 200-man armed siege of the Cliven Bundy ranch in Nevada
is all about protecting an "endangered tortoise." But a Natural News
investigation has found that BLM is actually in the business of raking
in millions of dollars by leasing Nevada lands to energy companies that
engage in fracking operations.
This document from the Nevada Bureau of Mines and Geology
shows significant exploratory drilling being conducted in precisely the
same area where the Bundy family has been running cattle since the
1870′s. The "Gold Butte" area is indicated on the lower right corner of
the document (see below), and it clearly shows numerous exploratory
drilling operations have been conducted there.
What's also clear is that oil has been found in nearby areas and possibly even within the Gold Butte area itself.
It is, of course, customary for the U.S. government to bring
armed soldiers to an oil dispute. (Operation "Iraqi Freedom" for
starters…) Heavily armed snipers, helicopters and militarized soldiers
have never been invoked over tortoises. (Anyone who thinks this siege is
about reptiles is kidding themselves.)
Here's the map showing the oil exploration conducted on the land
where Bundy runs his cattle (all the red crosshairs are oil and gas
exploration drilling operations):
If you would like to
read the full article, it goes on to give examples of oil and gas leases that are already happening in Nevada.
I wonder which Demonrat Congresscritters have invested in this area/
