Kurds took control of $1.06 Trillion worth of proven oil reserves in Kirkuk

Kirkuk has about 10 billion barrels of oil sitting underneath it.

"Iraqi Kurdish forces took control of the northern oil city of Kirkuk on Thursday, after government troops abandoned their posts in the face of a triumphant Sunni Islamist rebel march towards Baghdad that threatens Iraq's future as a unified state."

Talk about a cake walk...

Doesn't seem like the Kurd Peshmerga even had to fire a shot.

Well played, Kurds.
