Interesting interpretation. In this section, there are various interpretations by outsiders of the
Saksaul's true mission: search for oil or search for Shambhala? Similar to the varying explanations
for the Iraq invasion. I've run into far too many people who believe it was nothing more than a
do-gooder mission to spread democracy to our brown brothers, gone sadly awry. The oil and hegemony explanations seem to hold in both cases.
