Again With The, "Iraq War is about OIL". Can a Liberal Give Me Proof?

No.  It is a campaign marketing ploy that many people have fallen for...or maybe I should say...they WANT to believe it...it gives them a reason to complain.\n\nI mean two years ago we heard the administration ruined our economy...now its hitting new highs and we don't hear that.  \n\nSpin, baby, spin.

(Whining) "He lied.."  "He went to war for oil" or you'll get this one: "He's stupid"\n\nI would like to see, myself, if anyone actually has a valid proven reason.  I know there won't be.

You really can't tell the difference between Saddam and Bush? Read what Poster "Brian" wrote, he is a very wise person. You are a Liberal, Right?

No because if the war were for oil why am i paying $3.10 a gallon. That is outdate liberal rhetoric.

I can't believe how many answerers didn't get it. I got it. It's another example of the 'forced' liberalism causing lost work. Just like what could be the safest and most productive oil fields, isn't even started on, because of the liberal environmentalists. I worked in that industry for a while, needless to say, I don't anymore.

hello frnds.i fully agree that the iraqi war was all due 2 the oil rights.it had nothin 2 do with any nuclear weapons or weapons of mass destruction said 2 be possesed by iraq.it was just a rumour created by the greedy US politicians 2 justify their cause of attackin iraq and in the process gainin control over the iraqi oil wells.as such it has been 2 yrs since iraq has been under the control of the US.no weapons of mass destruction has been found uptil date.so it goes on 2 show the farce the US played.

Because that is what the bleeding heart liberals (aka Demorats) want them to believe.  Iraq is part of 9/11, but far more too.

uh... WHAT OIL would that be, Sparky? Liberals keep whining about it but no one can ever seem to answer the question as to WHERE *EXACTLY* THAT STOLEN OIL IS LOCATED.\n\nJust a guess, but I suspect that the question WON'T get answered here either... Go figure.

ROFL! Yup, you're right - you won't see a liberal on this question because they can't admit the truth that everyone in the world thought he had them ... mainly because Saddam used them on his own population, and bragged to everyone that he had them.\n\nAnd he did - we've found the "makings" and the "recipes". What else do you need??

Yeah, weve stole so much oil since we have been in Iraq.  Get ur facts straight.

don't confuse liberals with the truth,  Bush is in the oil business, so liberals want something to attack bush on, and lies work well if told loud enougn  and long enough\n\nThe government over all ( congress) does control the oil industry,  they tell them where they can drill and where they can't.  They tell them how they can drill,  they control how the oil has to be transported, stored and treated.\n\nSo in basics, there is no way for them to complete really against each other using any different method, since they are all controled.  And they all pay about the same price for imported oil\n\nAnd oil companies are making alot of profit now because they can't explore for oil hardly anywhere,  off shore of Fla and California have been blocked in court,  they can't in alot of alaska.\n\nAnd if you look not at the total billions profit, but look at the precent of profit,  it is so low that if they were not that big, they would close,  if a store or other business operated at the percent of profit oil companies do they would be considered operating poorly.  It is only thier pure size that makes them appear to be making such a big profit.

First off, The entire iraqi war on terror was in part to protect the oils assets. Which means the Bush family fortune.\nYes it is a scam. Why else would oil commpany executives and CEOs be questioned and put ontrial and even scolded by our congress. They are making "Not billions" but Trillions of dollars off of common people while our government fabricates things to protect the oil assets. Are they truly in danger? Who knows.\nIts one huge cover up. Europe is used to paying 6 dollars per gallon. So we don't get any sympothy from them at all. They say quite your snivveling. but the truth is we are the ones getting scammed big time! is there anything we common folks can do about it, probably not or at least I am not sure.

The Bush family has made all there money for years of of oil and dirty deeds. If you research it you will find there was a deal with Sadam about a pipe line to be built, And when he refused we went to war!! These oil companies are making record profits!!! No one is doing anything to stop them. And oil is part of the reason we are at war, to control more oil!!

I don't know why he said shit like that, but this is exactly what the illegal war was all about-the black Iraqi gold. That's right! It's the very oil all there for Bush's buddies to extract every drop of it from Iraqi soil, much to the huge expense in lives! Does he care about the slain American soldiers, numerous Iraqi police officers and security forces, and a huge number of civilians? FUCK NO!!!!!!!!!! Bush is there just for the dollar to line his fucking pockets! And not to mention his incompetent ass has been getting rich off it during the last few years!

I suggest reading 'armed madhouse' by greg palast. In this book he makes the arguement (with footnotes) that the reason we went into Iraq is for the oil. But not to take the oil. No ... we want to keep the oil in Iraq. You see economic supply and demand would dictate that if the second largest oil producing nation was bogged down by an occupation then prices would soar. Hmmmm and how have the oil companies been fairing since the invasion???? Who's side do you think this honest patriot is on?? http://blogs.it/0100206/stories/2004/03/15/houseOfBushHouseOfSaud.html

Thankfully, we're veering right.\n\nStill with that tired, old "war for oil" hippie protest I see. Tell me, exactly where is all of this oil we've stolen in the war.\n\nWe became the world's police after WWII, way before you were born.\n\nWe could be spending our money on making our military even stronger is we weren't busy wasting it on failed liberal social programs.\n\nThe LAST THING libs need is a better drug program.\n\nWho's threatening your freedom of speech? Do you mean when those "evil conservatives" try to prevent you from urinating on the graves of soldiers?

Well no ones answer will be objective (except for mine of course LOL).  The fact is that their were multiple  Terrorist training camps in Iraq and bush made it clear that we are against any country that harbors terrorists.  Sodom Hussein also gassed thousands of curds.  Leading to the weapons of mass destruction accusation.  Manly he was an incompetent leader who had invaded other countries before and wouldn’t have a problem with doing any thing that would kill innocent people.  And no it wasn’t for oil.  If it was than why am I pay so much for it.
