I posted this in another thread, but it did not get the exposure I think it deserves.

Speaking from a military point of view Iraq it is a strategic piece of realestate.

It opens many doors for the US militarily, if we need to use them, and down the road, we will feel the need to use them.

We are looking 20-40 years ahead, as the worlds oil reserves begin to dwindle.

Bottom line; to invade and control Iraq is a foward thinking, major strategic move for the USA.

There are other reasons for invading Iraq, but the above is the most important reason of them all, everything else is just gravy.

The whole key to long term control of Iraq (Iraq being a puppet of the US) depends upon the welcome provided by the Iraqi people.
