I'm sorry, but you're distracting from the point again. PROVE that oil is being stolen from Iraq and that said action was the basis for the war.
Don't worry, I'm not at all offended. I don't get my feelings hurt by someone who holds a different point of view then myself.
I don't disagree that the war in Iraq was badly sold, planned and executed. Nor do I think it solved much of anything, but instead created new problems. Saddam was just about starved to death by the sanctions and his killing the Iraqi economy by building palaces while unemployment grew.
Further, I don't believe that we can build world peace on empty stomachs, unemployment and more violence.

its not about oil beeing stolen.. but who do you think, or which companies from which country will be in iraq in the future? i have seen several "news" on tv were you could see managers or whatever from american oil companies debating on how much worth it is to invest in the iraq.
and yes, you just made yourself more enemies. i see all those news on tv here, and how the iraqs are so angry about the americans, what they have done to them.
sure, they are also people who are happy that saddam is gone.. but still, you made more enemies.

well, think.. he started a war without having the UN behind him. I live in a "UN state", and i totaly agree with the UN not to get involved into this war..
and how can so many countries be wrong who did not follow the US?
there must be some reason.. and its not about him beeing a "bad speaker" or something like that.
