Yesterday's guardian tells us,

"In Iraq, an American-inspired deal to hand over development of oil reserves, the third largest in the world, to US and British companies is being rushed through by the oil minister and Deputy Prime Minister Ahmed Chalabi before next month's election."

...and these are thirty year contracts.

Do you still think the invasion of Iraq isn't about control of energy resources?
