Noone seems to want to ask the question, Why are we in Iraq? We are in Iraq because it is the biggest prize in the whole world! Oil, Oil, Oil!!! Ask this way: WOULD WE BE IN IRAQ IF IRAQ HAD NO OIL? No, of course not. So when you drive home tonight, look around and what you will see is a world entirely dependent on oil. You are just one little twenty gallon minnow in a sea of other minnows. What are you going to do about that?</p> I don’t really understand everyone’s suprise at the vote. Noone seems to want to ask the question, Why are we in Iraq?
