Default Re: [OT] Another heated discussion about the Iraq siutation, war and politics.
Seven years or so ago, there was a letter addressed to ex-President Clinton by a group of politicians advising him to attack Iraq, occupy the country and operate the oilfields.

Those who signed the letter are now in power - including Vice-President Richard Cheney, Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, his deputy Paul Wolfowitz and Deputy Secretary of State Richard Armitage.

It's obviously all about the oil.

Also those of you who say that the war just causes oil prices to go up seem to forget that Texas is a major oil producer and when oil prices went down is was really bad for the oil producing states.
