Is the real reason Bush won't leave Iraq bc Iraq isn't secure enough for Exxon to make massive profits yet?

Question

Exxon and all the other oil companies that rushed in and got those sweetheart oil production leases. Once all the oil has been sucked out of the ground, do you think the troops will be on the next plane home?

Answer 1

yup, don't forget..they need to secure that other big oil field in Iran.
lots to do.

Additional info : Yes some of Iraq oil WAS sold to china directly. Now, they still sell some oil to china >>Through US Oil Companies<< now.

The devil is in the detail my friend...them little details.

Answer 2

At its 1998 meeting the Bilderberg Conference decided that George W. Bush and Dick Cheney would be 'elected' to the White House in 2000. From the first day he stepped foot in the Oval Office, Bush knew what his orders were, and what he had to do - at any cost: he had to invade Iraq for three really 'lame' reasons:
1) The Bush family had a personal vendetta against Saddam Hussein ever since the days of Desert Storm when George H.W. Bush was criticized, ridiculed and humiliated for not 'finishing the job' and ousting Hussein at that time;
2) Dick Cheney and all his Exxon-Mobil buddies coveted all that OIL swimming underneath Iraq's sands so they could get richer and richer and richer feeding America's addiction to cheap, easily-accessible foreign OIL;
3) Ever since World War II, the giant U.S. military-industrial complex recognized just how profitable 'war' could be; so it bought up all the politicians, hired pricey lobbyists, and formed special interest groups to encourage and promote more 'war'. Thus, the U.S. became entangled in the Korean Conflict; the Cuban Missile Crisis; the Cold War; Vietnam and Desert Storm. A 'new war' was necessary to help boost the sagging profits of companies such as McDonnell-Douglass; Lockheed-Martin; Sikorsky; and the newest government contractors, the Carlyle Group and Halliburton (both with connections to Bush and Cheney).
From the very beginning this 'war' has been about OIL and WAR PROFITEERING at the expense of gullible American taxpayers, many of whom believe we are there for humanitarian reasons to bring democracy to a nation that has encountered civil wars for the past 14 centuries.
If we really intend to leave Iraq once democracy has been established, WHY is the U.S. building the largest embassy in the world on a 104-acre site overlooking the current puppet Iraqi government installed by the Bush administration?
We will maintain a presence in Iraq until we have sucked every drop of OIL from its sands. And if that means more Iraqi civilians must die, along with a few more thousand U.S. soldiers, so be it. Corporate profits trump human lives any day, in the world of Bush/Cheney.
Surely Satan has reserved a special oil-soaked corner of Hell for Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld and all 535 members of the most arrogant, incompetent, cowardly, contemptible, greedy, corrupt U.S. Congress in history, the Republican-led Congress that turned its back on the American people and allowed Bush to utterly destroy our country's future. Before these cretins all rot in Hell, they should be tried in an international tribunal for high crimes against humanity, and - if convicted - should be hanged just as they arranged to hang Saddam Hussein. -RKO- 05/21/07
