War isn't about patriotism, national security, or and such things most of the time, it is all about the almighty buck. The government is making the big bucks, along with all the contractors associated with the government via cronyism ,and none of the benefits ever is seen by the common everyday people.

Haliburton, defense contractors, The Saudi oil company (only because the damage from the Iraqi oil wells has required additional oil from other sources).

US and His allies are making money by taking out Oil from Iraq.
But this is not the Question that who is taking it out but the question is from where it comes?
And who is getting real benefit from this war?
