If confirmed, it would raise Iraq from the world’s third largest source of oil reserves with 116bn barrels to second place, behind Saudi Arabia and overtaking Iran.

And just think that if Saddam had still been in power, he'd be building nukes and chemical weapons instead of exploring for more oil.

On another note, this raises Iraq to the status of world's second richest third world country... after Saudi Arabia. ;-P

Hah, Stupid Saddam. He invades Kuwait for oil when he was sitting on an ocean of oil all along. Kinda ironic.
