No mention of Unocol's role in the discussions with Turkmenistan, about building the pipeline through Afghanistan, before the talks between Washington and the Taleban over the pipeline broke down and the US subsequently invaded Afghanistan instead?

Isn't it important, as a key role in oil politics which (arguably) helped lead to two countries collapsing?

If you have information to add to the article, I encourage you to help write it. Kingturtle 20:41, 20 May 2005 (UTC)

Ok, I tried, but, my addition is probably poorly structured. Also, I'm sure Unocal has been involved in many other dealings, and the paucity of other history makes its role in the tawdry US/Afghanistan dispute seem overemphasized by comparison, I think.

That paragraph on Unocal and Trans-Afghanistan Pipeline is oversimplified at best, and arguably misleading, but I've not time to try to fix it. I'm also not sure if wikipedia has an article on CentGas somewhere -- searching on CentGas doesn't find it. Slitim 19:12, 31 May 2005 (UTC)

I think we should add in that there was a documentary made on this topic called Total Denial which won a Vaclav Havel Special Award for Human Rights in 2006. Agreement? (Radokapi 16:56, 15 December 2006 (UTC))

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Unocal Logo.svg

Image:Unocal Logo.svg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.
