And when there would be implications that he is starting it again(actually building plants), the attack would be justified. This way it was only a way to secure oil fields, and a nice way for Exxon and BP to make extra profit, and have a nice geostrategic position for future invasions *cough* Iran *cough*...

 

I'm sure that Saddam was very well aware of his weaknesses, and he didn't think about restarting the WMD program...

Also one of the reasons of going to the war were his links with the terrorists, which were of course non existant...

 

We would have had to attack one way or the other, its just now we know we could haved waited a few years. but the fact remains the same military action would have had to have been taken.

 

Saddam is VERY connected to terrorism. he had a terrorist camp inside iraq, Salmen Pak, and was buddy buddy with groups such as ansar al-islam. if the war was about oil gas prices would be alot lower. hell we could have saved billions of dollars and just bought the oil from saddam at a cheap price.....but i guess we'd rather pay an extra 30 billion for it?

this thread is going nowhere.....

 

 

its about the Comservatives fleeing... opinions please, theories etc....

 

 

 

stick to the topic

if the war was about oil gas prices would be alot lower.

 

Oil prices have got nothing to do with Iraq, typical misconception, oil is becoming more scarce, and the demand on the world market is bigger every day, so there is no chance that oil prices will ever be low again (except if some major cataclysm happens, and economical progress is halted), but the point of the invasion is to secure those fields for the future, when oil will be even more scarce and expensive...

Also the highest profits in history (Exxon 100b $) is an excellent evidence of the invasion and it's impact on huge capital...

There are such things called supply and demand ;)

You're preaching to the choir, i already knew this. But if iraq was about oil we'd be using some of it now....which we are not.

bah bah bah... this is going nowhere------

Thank you captain obvious.
