Contrary to the Bush administration's claims, Iraq does not need foreign oil corporations in order reap the benefits of its oil. Prior to the U.S. invasion, Iraq produced an average of 2.5 million barrels of oil a day. Since the invasion, the Iraqis have averaged approximately 2.2 million barrels of oil a day. This amount has dropped recently due to the surge in violence to about 1.7 million barrels a day. Because Iraq's oil is the cheapest in the world to produce, only about sixty cents a barrel, and oil is selling today at $61 per barrel - the return on any investment is enormous. At its current low rate of production, Iraq is expected to generate more than $30 billion from its oil this year.
Since then, the Bush administration has invaded Iraq, ousted Saddam Hussein, put the pre-existing oil contracts on hold, and has nearly succeeded in a four-year long venture to restructure the Iraqi oil industry for itself and its corporate allies.
It's simple: the Bush administration and Big Oil are trying to get the best deal and the most oil possible out of a war-ravaged and desperate people. They are holding 25 million Iraqis - and 150,000 American troops -- hostage to their oil agenda.
There is time, if we shine enough sunlight, to expose the oil agenda driving the war, who believe that now is not the time for Cuba or Canada. Our government to rush into contracts that will lock in the fate of their most valuable resource for a generation. What ashame what this country has become.

No, he does not invade countries for oil. If he was that concerned about where the oil is then he'd be working towards building refinaries in Alaska and not supporting alternative fuels.

OMG there is a bigger picture here people. What would you do if you were him. Not to say I agree with his ways, but man try running a country under attack, and deal with all of the other issues at hand.

As ill-conceived as the Iraq War was (and is), it does not boil down to being a ploy to get oil.
And if you really believe that, I have a bridge to sell you.

probably, he 's a greedy motherf--ker. his father, him and some business ''associates'' own many oil companies, and the troops will have to do his dirty work for him like they are in iraq right now.
