I recently watched How Big Oil Conquered the World.

This was the most eye-opening documentary I have ever watched and I highly recommend for you to subscribe to Corbett Report on Youtube and follow Corbett's website to stay informed on the elitist's plans to take over our world!

@corbettreport is also posting on Steemit, Corbett Report is one of my personal favorite independent news outlets.

I have already released Part #1, Part #2, Part #3, Part #4, Part #5, Part #6, Part #7 and Part #8, of this series. I highly recommend for you to read through these first to better understand this post.

Today I will inform you of the story of how Standard Oil manipulated their way into control of Germany's Turkish oil interests.

German-Turkey Trade Alliance

After the end of the 19th Century Germany needed an outlet for it's goods that were to be exported. The German economy was growing as fast as China's was at the time.

Turkey was decided to be a good strategic trade partner.

Berlin-Baghdad Railway

Georg von Siemens, one of the directors of Deutsche Bank, came up with a strategy to extend a railway from Berlin all the way down to Baghdad. LINK

This was when the German military began to train the Turkish military. Following this German investments flooded into Turkey.

And guess what Deutsche Bank also negotiated for? Mineral rights...

Military Infliction

Why was this deal so important? Jack Fisher, head of the Royal Navy began advocated the complete renewal of the British Navy from a coal-fired army to an oil-fired one.

In Fisher's eye's, the oil-fired machinery would have a strategic improvement in comparison to the warship designs of the past.

No Peace In The Middle East

Britain did not know of it's oil reserves at this time so they looked towards Persia for their crude.

They proceeded to swindle the Shah out of oil rights in Persia. LINK

Coup D'etat Initiated...

The British backed up a group which dismantled the Al Sabah family.

They wrote a contract that made sure that nothing that Kuwait does will be done without approval by the British Governor.

Turkish National Bank

The only thing "Turkish" about this bank was the name. The founders were very much British elitist oligarchs, starting with London Banker Sir Edward Cassell and even involving director Hugo Baring of the Baring Banking family.

The Bank set up the Turkish Petroleum Company in 1912.

Why Was The Turkish Petroleum Company Founded?

It was founded to exploit Iraq's petroleum-rich fields. At this time Iraq was part of the Ottoman Empire.

Gulbenkian brokered a deal that forced Deutsche Bank, with it's 40 kilometer concessions along the oil-rich Baghdad railway line, into a junior partnership in the company. LINK

Stocks Are Sold

The way the stocks for the company were distributed was truly seedy. The British government's Anglo-Persian Oil Company owned exactly half of the shares, Royal Dutch Shell and Deutsche Bank split the other half.

A devious plan for a takeover of Germany's Turkish oil interest had been successful, but not without implications!
