All their oil belong to us!
Don’t you just know that every time Trump opens his mouth and speaks truth to power, Soros adds another 100 or so opposition researchers to the thousands that are already at it on behalf of BO.
We shouldn’t take it but the Iraqis could certainly afford to remiburse us in oil for the cost of their freedom.
I like Trump’s style.
Iraq exported 1.8 million bbl/d of crude oil in 2009. About 1.5 million bbl/d of this came from Iraqs Persian Gulf ports, with the rest exported via the Iraq-Turkey pipeline in the north. The majority of Iraqi oil exports go to refineries in Asia, especially China, India, and South Korea.
I agree with Trump. If we are not going to produce it here anymore, it has to come from somewhere. The Iraqis will make money, the oil will just be sent to the US and Briton.
Although it was true once, it is too late now to go back down that road. Let’s try it with someone else - like Iran.
Circus politics. If it is a choice of between electing P.T. Barnum Trump over the clown currently in the center of the ring, I will vote for the loudmouth any time.
Too late now. The deals have been made and that’s the end of it.
While I’m not opposed to reasonable reparations, we should not forget what triggered the second world war.
Whoa! So, when Bush, Cheney, Rice, and Fox News were foaming at the mouth about what a threat Saddam was, it was all BS? This is worse than I thought; that we have come to the point where the only way to justify this horrible mistake is to get some oil out of it.
A pox on all politicians. You never see them go to war or send their own kids. All the death and destruction for what? To install and protect a new thug after deposing the old thug. Not only that, but we have brought in thousands of Iraqi (Muslim) refugees to join the Future Jihadists Club. This has been an expensive disaster from day one.
Every time some politician wants to demonstrate his power and show how tough he is, he sends out the troops. The only ones who benefit are defense contractors. As that Marine general said, “War is a racket.”
I do not trust Trump. He’s beginning to sound like satire.
He's bound to shaking something loose.
I’m really starting to like Trump. Sure, he likes the spotlight but so what? That’s a good thing when it comes to politics. Given Trump’s comfort level with public speaking, I can see him as the first president in decades who can stand in front of the world and make his points forcefully, unambiguously and without a damn teleprompter. Trump definitely has that “Big Dick Daddy” thing going too; he gives off this sense that he doesn’t like being messed with and will crush you like a grape if you play with him. Just the sort of vibe needed to give our enemies pause. And man, can I see him brushing the creepy, whiney Dems off like so many flies. Not saying I’d vote for Trump right now, but he’s becoming a contender in my book. It’ll be easy for the Left to vilify into ineffectiveness a President Palin, Bachman, Romney (hate mentioning him in the same sentence!) Huckabee and just about any Repub contender that comes to mind. I’d love to see the Left try that cowardly crap on Trump. No way it’d work. Methinks the Left is positively terrified of the guy. As they should be.
Quack Quack Quack goes the duck.
All them dems started screaming that the Iraq war was about oil so W said we wouldn’t take it. I’ve been disappointed in him ever since.
In the begining we were supposed to get oil at a reduced price after we liberated Iraq. Then after awhile that just died away. Trump is right if we are going to constantly be the policeman of the planet we need to get paid for it. We don’t have the funds to continue to carry all the water for everyone. There is nothing wrong with letting the Iraqi’s pay us back with discount oil.
Finally somebody says it without worrying about the MSM getting in a lather.
If you spend billions of dollars helping out a country, should you not get dibs on things that help you out?
BTTT
