Extremely silly considering that without the oil Iraq wouldn't be a big enough earner to interest US companies.
It was most definately about the oil and any other resources we can hijack.

Whichever way you paint it the result is the same , all those who proclaimed it was to
A Unseat a tyrant
B Catch Terrorists
C Bring democracy
D For the Iraqi people
E Any and all of the above
need to take a quick reality check.

I am willing to discuss anything you wish but you seem to be hooked up on the OIL versus MONEY thing and we both know that oil is the Iraqis international currency.
