Here's a fun one for the tinfoil hat crowd, from Fortune.
"That for a small company like Harken to be involved in foreign drilling operations getting concessions from foreign governments, things just didn't add up. A lot of people had suspected that this was a CIA front." That particular point, of course, is just a rumor.
Even without the "rumor" part, this is a key point.
