if iraq controlled the oil in the middle east we'd be fucked. you think we pay alot for a gallon of gas now. the oil companies are funding most of the war and we're paying them back one gallon at a time.

you can't believe alot of what you see on tv, the large news networks are owned by companies like GE which happens to be a primary defense contractor.

we'll never pull out of the middle east...we're just digging in.
