I don't want to hurt your feelings, but this war is for oil and money, not for freedom.

If you Sir think that my friend died, or that my wife is going in harms way because of oil than I submit, that you are only looking at one aspect of a larger picture. If this where “only for oil” than why are we investing the lives of our families to rebuild the country. We could simply conquer and take, then subjugate. There is no one left in this world that would bother (over Iraq at least) to offer serious opposition to an occupation. You are speaking of something that is a popularized notion left over from the first war. Furthermore to demean the troops of any nation by calling their effort nothing more than a push to control oil is just pure wrong. It would be more accurate to say that the respective government has sent the troops for the goal of controlling the oil [fields].
