USA found a good excuse(WMD's) to take over iraqi oil. And captured valuable oil resources.
Do the americans have the guts to fight iran too for the oil? What would be the excuse to start the "OPERATION FREE IRAN"???

The same reason for invading Iraq. Iran is selling their oil in Euros.
Another thing. Why is it that idfiots think taking the Iraqi oil will result in cheaper petrol prices? OPEC control the OIL prices and as the US aren't an OPEC member then they have no control over their OIL prices. The Government doesn't set PETROL prices but rather the big multinationals that the govt supports, who refine the oil set these PETROL prices. Why? Profit!

Depending on the next president, we may try to attack Iran. This is a frightening proposition as we do not have the man power to sustain a war there. Also, since I know quite a bit about Middle East politics, Iran is a nation that is very much looked up to, unlike Iraq. It is highly likely multiple nations will unite against us if we start a new war in Iran.

A couple of problems with your question.
1. The rest of the world believed as we did that Saddam had WMD's. Even some of Saddam's top generals believed they had them(New York Times story) if you question the source.
2. We haven't taken any of the oil. Every time that we begin to get the Iraqis infrastructure back on line, one of the terrorist groups blows part of it up.
Whether or not you feel the war was the right thing is definitely your choice to make, but please take time to look at things level headed and see that alot of the "hate bush" stuff is just that its made up so people will "hate bush".

The GUTS? The idiocy and lack of morals, you mean. We shouldn't have gone into Iraq--going into Iran sure won't make anything right. Anyone who thinks it will should enlist right away and see how they feel after two years.

Sadly, the US is stupid enough to engage in a third armed conflict, despite being massively over-extended and without any political or moral support from the rest of the world.

We took the oil? That's a new one.
Where is it?
More oil means cheaper gas. I sure would love if the U.S. actually TOOK the oil.
