"For as long as the United States and its coalition partners administered Iraq, they would essentially control the second largest reserves of oil in the world, comprising nearly 11 percent of the world's proven resources. A senior administration official said Thursday that the United Nations oil-for-food program would be expanded to help finance the country's stabilization and reconstruction."

War against terror? Weapons of mass destruction? Ha!

Reading the rest of the article I reckon this is the reason for them wanting to "take over for a smoother ransition" instead of putting iraqis into power. Anyone that doesn't think this is about oil should open their eyes

I agree.As we.ll, Its Bush's Weapons of Mass Distraction: to divert attention from his own probs.

 

[bleedingskeptic]

iraq has always been about oil, why would that change?

 

[Gnuckell]

The ignorance of George Bush frightens me.

"The main part of our import comes from abroad"

...brrrrr.....

Is there such a thing as a non-corrupt government?

Things need to go back to the early american government, based off honesty, and the constitution.

 

[Juggie]

Well, we did turn Japan from crap into what it is today.
