It wasnt about oil. 4000 people died in 9/11. These assholes were counting on the fact the US would be pussies, and not put men in harms way, but they were wrong. Going over there and blowing the shit out of anyone who supports those assholes was really the only logical option the US had.
We may have lost 600 lives in the war, but no religious fanatics have blown up any buildings in the US since either. Just maybe they got it through their thick heads that for every building they blow up, they will lose a country.
People who think this is just about oil must have very short memories.
