What the hell[edit]

What the hell? There are people this stupid? How do they stay out of debt? Who thought this was a good idea?TyrannisAn iron, yet caring fist 19:31, 20 November 2010 (UTC)

I want to think, "Surely nobody can be that stupid." DalekEXTERMINATE 20:04, 20 November 2010 (UTC)
But they are! It is insane! Who invests in this?TyrannisAn iron, yet caring fist 20:05, 20 November 2010 (UTC)

"ZOG"[edit]

Wait, isn't that a term favored by the antisemitic/white power crowd? "Zionist Occupation Group" or something? P-FosterCan't we talk about this, baby?Moderator 14:14, 13 July 2011 (UTC)

Heh, I vaguely knew it was not particularly complimentary but it seemed like a useful abbreviation. I hope it doesn't come over as anti-semitic though, otherwise feel free to replace the offending bits.

Yeah, man, that's gonna have to go -- unless, unless the company uses that term in their own literature. If that's the case, write a sentence pointing out the obvious problem with that, but it in the lead, and then run with it. P-FosterCan't we talk about this, baby?Moderator 14:27, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
OK, thanks for fixing that up for me. The abbr was just easier when I was typing it up on the plane. Redchuck.gif ГенгисOur ignorance is God; what we know is science.Moderator 15:27, 13 July 2011 (UTC)

Financial Times series[edit]

Jamie Powell at Financial Times FT Alphaville has an entire ongoing series of detailed coverage of this particular bizarre stupidity: "Zion Oil: Living On A Prayer" [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] - readable with free login. Lots of follow-the-money - David Gerard (talk) 12:00, 3 August 2018 (UTC)
