11. mute point..
http://news.independent.co.uk/world/middle_east/article328526.ece

Earlier this year a BBC Newsnight report claimed to have uncovered documents showing the Bush administration made plans to secure Iraqi oil even before the 9/11 terrorist attacks on the US. Based on its analysis of PSAs in seven countries, it said multinationals would seek rates of return on their investment from 42 to 162 per cent, far in excess of typical 12 per cent rates.

Louise Richards, chief executive of War on Want, said: "People have increasingly come to realise the Iraq war was about oil, profits and plunder. Despite claims from politicians that this is a conspiracy theory, our report gives detailed evidence to show Iraq's oil profits are well within the sights of the oil multinationals."

6. the world would have thanked the usa.
the americans have been the last to see the treachery of this admin but i think the world would have given dubya the benefit of the doubt if we had found wmd . . . imo.

8. Can someone explain to me just what gives us the right
to say what other countries may or may not have? Since we clearly DO have WMD, is it okay if Canada invades us and kills a bunch of civilians--uh, insurgents--uh, no wait, when we do it maybe it's called patriots.....

9. We'll take them this year and sell them back to them when we have
a puppet regime firmly in place... who gives a sh*t if they have them or not... if they didn't they will, if they did, they never used them against us anyway. Bastids.
