<War could unshackle oil in Iraq

U.S. drillers see potential for huge pool of petroleum

WASHINGTON, Sept. 15 — A U.S.-led ouster of Iraqi President Saddam Hussein could open a bonanza for American oil companies long banished from Iraq, scuttling oil deals between Baghdad and Russia, France and other countries, and reshuffling world petroleum markets, according to industry officials and leaders of the Iraqi opposition.

But we know that's the ONLY reason to go to war, to loot the country. And world knows that. I think there was a country prior to WWII which deported citizens so as to keep their property. And the world knows that, too.

As well as the historical "coincidence" of a British Prime Minister who supports the aggression of a large country against a smaller one for the purpose of looting it.

By the way, that other country which Britain supported through the looting also had the ability to arrest citizens without even naming them, and hold them for as long as the political leadership wanted without charges or legal representation.

Makes some of you proud, I know.
