Wrong. The wells weren't close enough to the border - and here's another aerial photo that shows this. On these landsat maps, the Iraqi border is drawn in and there's a mileage scale. Look at the middle map showing the smoke from the fires. As you can see, the northernmost Kuwaiti wells were about 10 miles south of the border. Therefore there was no slant drilling from Kuwait to Iraq:


...... The three images above from Landsat 5's Thermal Mapper show Kuwait in August 1990 before the fires, June 1991 while the fires were burning, and January 1992, two months after the last fires were put out.

I'm keying in on this issue because it shows your dishonesty.
