to address your specific remarks.
1) i seriously doubt "saddam hussein" played any more role in this other than the fact that he created opportunity and an excuse
2) oil fields? i don't think that was EVER a factor. is your gas cheaper? gas went up to over 4.00 a gallon years after going into Iraq... no sane person can argue that "cheap oil" was a factor.
