Vandalism 

Regarding the Hurricane Barbarossa "oil war" someone either didn't read their source or there was a malicious edit. From every account I've read MEND and it's affiliated militant groups/gangs/cults were extremely successful in crippling oil production over the weeklong war and ended combat without significant losses or a tactical defeat. I'd check the link to the stub on the actual operation to see where the edit came from- Scott April 26 2009
