"We will have spent $200 billion on Iraq by the end of this year"

Considering that Iraq oil has never been worth more than 30 billion dollars a year, it would be ridiculous for us to spend 200 billion to get it. Certainly when you consider that the US is 10.5 trillion dollar economy. The Oil of Iraq is only equal to 3 tenths of 1% of our economy.
Would anybody really go to the trouble we did just to get oil reserves worth 3 tenths of their economy? We need to know these statistics because they disprove slime liars like this crazy woman.
