Sorry, but much of the Iraq war as well as Desert Storm was about oil for US corporations too. That’s the truth. I got tired of defending these two wars to the liberals and saw that there were a bunch of holes and that there is a war for oil element. You can’t judge Russia when the US Gov is doing the exact same thing on a more massive scale!
Russia is.
You sir are a troll.
No it was about keeepng the oil flowing through the Straights of Hormuz for the entire industrial West, and protecting Israel.
The USA put itself ito the strategic center of the area, Iraq, and for more than just oil.
No oil is coming out of Iraq to the USA, it just doesn't have enough productiopn facilities to pipe the oil to make going to war for oi woth while.
Your argument is inane. Imaging having a swimming pool full of chocolate milksake and you having a capillary tube to suck it up. Thats the way oil is in Iraq.
We are not here for the oil, if we were, we would be running the oil fields. We are not. The government of Iraq is.
Estimates of time to bring Iraqs oil potential up to speed vary from 15 to 20 years. It will likely be longer if the fighting continues.
