Honestly....Big Oil said so. That's the beginning of it. Word has it Iraq under Hussein was wanting to cut the Russians and the European Union some sweetheart deals on priviliged access to crude oil and natural gas pipelines, and this sent the American/OPEC side of Big Oil into a tizzy.

The middle of it came when two guys "ran for office", and one of them just *happened* to be a diehard CIA-head and also the former CEO of Big Oil's good buddy Halliburton Inc. And the other one? An imbecile, but as far as "fall guys" go, a perfect one--someone from a famous *family of* CIA-heads, with lots of Big Oil investments himself, and a personal *family grudge* to settle against Saddam Hussein. And not one lick of prudence or military sense to keep his impulses in check.

And the end of it happened on 9-11. Simply put, the "bubble talk" one G.W. Bush put out there concerning the internet-driven, *non* Big Oil dependent New Economy wasn't totally effective. It scared off the CEOs and Venture Capital, but not the ordinary average Americans. The working citizens needed to be scared off too, and "brought in line" with the Big Oil Agenda...so....

An ex-CEO of Halliburton made a phone call, let's say, to an old business partner in Saudi Arabia. Let's say it was the head of the biggest concrete and construction firm in Saudi Arabia. Let's say this firm was *a very close* business partner with Halliburton in that region of the world.

And let's say this construction firm was named for its founder, a fellow named....Bin Laden. As in, Osama's *DADDY*.

So yeah, someone made that phone call....left a message for the man's *wayward boy*, something to the effect of, "now's the time, *do* the damned thing".

And that was the end of it. The rest was just window dressing really, more pretext to mislead and confuse. It's all about Big Oil taking over the nation so that they can *RUIN IT*.

And I'm talking about America, not Iraq. In the Big Picture Sense of things....people could really not *care less* about Iraq. Iraq doesn't threaten the Company agendas--no, not even with the sellout to the EU and Russia planned--half as much as a fully funded, activist American government does. Big Oil, and your CEO, One Percenter, "Have Mores" in general, are just *using* Iraq as a pretext to *bankrupt* the "bigger threat" in their view.

Pity they don't have a damned clue, but hey....what can you do? They're rich people. Historically, they've *always* been clueless in direct proportion to the degree to which they *hog all of the wealth* of a society.

Just saying..... You can hate me now.

There are/could be many reasons, but a lot of people strongly believe that about 9 months before 9/11 the Iraq government decided to stop trading its oil in the American dollar, and decided to trade it in the Euro.

This had a stong effect on the American oil economy and drove the value of the American dollar.

It is a fact that after we invaded Iraq, one of the 1st things we did was move the market back to trading with the American dollar.

------------------------------------------------------

Interesing coincidence or not -->

The Iranian government is now considering switching its oil market to trade with the Euro and Yen, as America pre-pares to go to war with Iran, supposedly looking for those "weapons of mass destruction" again.

Sure wish I had an answer for you....I have no idea n personally think there is no answer that would be logical. I just wish our troops would come home ...too many have died & for what???
Addition: Oil n $$$$ But is that a reason...Bin Laden was not in Iraq...supposedly that was Bush's reason....Terrorism
All it is doing is putting $$$ in his pocket while the rest of us suffer the consequences...gas prices, rising food prices but none of this affects the rich. They get the tax breaks we get screwed. Those people in the Middle East have lived that way for thousands of years & have no desire for change. They have their own beliefs & we have ours. Go after Bin Laden...he is the one who attacked the USA in our own back yard...sad part is, here we are 6yrs. later n he's still alive. To me between the deaths from 911 & all our troops are not worth oil.

some of the professors and most media agencies as well as some of the trustworthy publications have several times stated that it might be a result of an action that sought for a place to reserve more oil from the middle east region, believe or not, and I need to assert here that I am neither pro nor con, but rather I am certainly neutral since i rarely tend to care about things that are not necessarily and directly related to my life and tasks i am currently dealing with, so i just dropped by your question to provide a part of information which no one can be sure whether it's true or false, that i've learned from various resources in education and society. i hope that helps.

Because Afghanistan was to short and primitive of a war to get a chance to test all of those high tech weapons that the Pentagon had been developing during the Clinton administration.

Or E.)Could have lived under oppression and fear that if anyone hears them say the slightest protest against Saddam that they would wind up in one of the many mass graves found after their liberation.
