So much for "Iraqi Allies".

I mean, it is their country, after all. I think.

Who said anything about allies, we attacked Iraq declaring war against saddam. I dont ever remember referring to Iraq as an ally and could care less if they ever are our ally. As long as they dont attack other countries in the region threating the free flow of oil out of the middle east (a grave security concern for the US) they can have their country and the profits from the oil so we can sell em ammunitions

LOL

Do you think Iraqis are stupid? You think they can't see through the gross selfish interests of Bush and his Faithful. Or the rest of the world can't see for that matter.

Yup you are one tricky pony.

I can see that its your opinion that this is the Presidents intentions and also your opinion about how the Iraqis or the rest of the world might see or feel about the war in Iraq. Just because you say it doesnt make it true. Your full of alot of opinion, hyperbole and talking points. Try to stick to arguments that can be quantified and proven one way or the other.

I come with the same phony BS by the way but at least I can admit it. I feel like frer fox with my tarbaby on this site sometimes

Which would you prefer? American Deaths? Iraqi Deaths? Dollars
Spent? (Or in reality, Dollars Owed?) Military Equipment In Need of Repair? PTSD cases rising?

None of it will change your opinion, so why bother. For you Oil is God, apparently.

Access to a free oil market is a grave security concern for the USA.

Was Saddam threatening our Oil out of the Middle East somehow? I must have missed that with all the Mushroom Cloud talk and "No more 9/11s!!" coming out of the White House back in the day.

Yes, he attacked Kuwait and was well within range of launching a scud into the Saudis main oil field aaramco I think they call it. He lit hundreds of oil wells on fire in his retreat after the Gulf war. I dont know what more indicators you would want to see that saddam wanted to disrupt the flow of oil out of the Persian gulf
