Actually, Dougie... I think that Little Hawk is probably close to being correct. The estimates of 100,000 dead from the invasion plus upwards of 500,000 from the sanctions probably gets US in the same league as Saddam....

GUEST, Boab... You are correct about this invasion and subsequent occupation is very much about oil. When the World Bank and I.M.F. fail to secure other folks resources thru their loan sharking, and the CIA is not able to bring about a coup or mysterious death, then it gets turned over to folks like Donnie Rumsfeld....

The US ***IS*** going to have its OIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!
