It's about the oil

Most of us knew that the whole Iraq fiasco was about oil. And the Iraqi "oil law" was a sham to allow western companies to profit. But don't take my word for it:

Is Iraq's U.S. Backed Oil Law "Robbery?"

Six Nobel Peace Prize Laureates have released a statement in opposition to the legislation. The laureates include Betty Williams, Mairead Corrigan Maguire, Rigoberta Menchu, Jody Williams, Shirin Ebadi and Wangari
Maathai. The statement read, in part, "The Iraq Oil Law could benefit foreign oil companies at the expense of the Iraqi people, deny the Iraqi people economic security, create greater instability, and move the country further away from peace."

Every time this administration does something appalling, just ask yourself "who profits from this?".
