Get a map of the Middle East. Start marking the countries that have "friendly relations with the U.S. in green (ie; we have bases, troops there, conduct joint military exercises with them, etc.). Then, mark the unfriendly ones in red (leave out Iraq). Now, what you should get is a picture that has a big green circle around it with IRAN in the middle. We have surrounded the Middle East and, by going into Iraq, have divided it. The real goal is, and always has been, Iran.

He wants to redecorate it. You know we are not trying to take it,
even with it's oil who would want it. Crazy people, dust everywhere, hotter than Hades, poor people everywhere.
We have California, we do not need Iraq too!
President Bush sold 3/4 of his oil company, now if he planned to take Iraq for the oil, why would he not keep his company to make the profit. More oil lowers the price of oil not increasing the profit.
Oil people do not want more oil they want more profit. We have had oil & high profits for years. Who owns the oil in Iraq? not President Bush!!!!!

Remember when the Iraq operation was honestly named
Operation Iraqi Liberation (OIL)? It was too obvious so they changed it to "Operation Iraqi Freedom." George Bush and his cronies don't give a damn about democracy; it only gets in their way.

Let me start with what all of you liberals want to hear : It's the oil...
Yeah, right...
If President Bush really wanted a war for oil...He didn't have to go half the world away to the Middle East ; he would've gone to Venezuela, which is right at our backyard, remove Hugo Chavez who's Fidel Castro's ally & suck the oil out of there....
Unbelievable of how a liberal mind operates.

Because the United States government told him that he couldn't own the whole country, so he figured he's use his presidential power to take over Iraq, because having lots of money isn't enough-he wants to own a country!
