since one of the recommendations of the iraq study group said " the iraqi's should get control back of thier oil supplies," it's saying the u.s is still in control of iraq's oil supply. so how many ppls think the whole iraq war was about oil, and do you think bush and co realy care how many soldiers end up in a body bag? thanks

the whole world knows it was about oil, even bush himself admited it, in a press interview with tony blair, " he said, we should be worried that the oil supply would be controled by other countries undermiimng our interests" even the iraq study gruop admited it, so if people can't think that, i think they love children dieng from other countires.

grant and insist has not something to do with it. China and India are presently receiving their oil from Suda, Venezuela, and different coming up countries. there is plenty and many oil interior the Persian gulf, or the midsection East. in the previous the conflict, oil became into approximately $27, and now, that's over $143 because of the valueless fee that the greenback includes, that's heavily inflated if we proceed to pay for those wars. additionally, the FED devaluated the greenback, and that they scale down costs of pastime on the same time as printing it out of skinny air! This purely makes the subject even worse. IF we had gold/silver as our significant backing to the greenback, gasoline might've been the same fee because it became into in the previous the Iraq invasion. It purely that "fiat currencies" on no account artwork, that is basically paper and it could tend to get destroyed genuinely if we shop printing, printing, spending and spending. All this impacts the greenback, the economic equipment, and the human beings. Take care.

There's been so many different reasons given for the Iraq war it's hard to say. I'm sure oil is a major player but as far as bush & co. I think it's all come down to trying to justify their war no matter what the cost.

Yes, it was about oil, it is about oil, and it will continue to be about oil. And no, Bush and his coherts don't care how many Americans are killed in Iraq.
What they care about is big business. That is all they've ever cared about. That has been the driving force from long before Bush became Governor, and that has been front and center for him ever since.
Republicans and the rest of the world saw this clearly in Bush's response to illegal Mexican immigration. The bottom line was, and remains, what is good for corporate financial interests. Not what is good for the American people.
Iraq is the same deal. Corporate profits paid for by dead American soldiers.

Nothing can explain the loss of life in Iraq but oil is probably the one good thing the US is getting out it.

Yes of course it is. You see the Americans rushing into Darfur to save them from themselves?
Control the oil ie the World's energy supply, and you control the World.

the war was about oil, as well as having a strategic position in that area of turmoil. Yes, i think Bush does care but has been misguided and i guess Yale's curriculum didn't cover the costs of war. as an aside, did you know that David Milch (writer of Deadwood, etc.) was a fraternity brother of Bush's at Yale U.

The Japanese attacked pearl harbor because of oil. Oil controls the world economy, so everything has something to do with oil. I think a piece of President Bush dies with every solders body bag, he cares but unlike you he can see the big picture.
