I'm not sure why Rummy said oil was no factor, but what if it is? What's wrong with one factor in our policy regarding Iraq being the securing of our vital energy supply?

We heard the same non-sense during the Gulf War in 1991. I don't doubt for one second that there are many oil companies chomping at the bit to be the first to negotiate oil deals with a democratic Iraq. But that hardly makes it are only focus on why Saddam has to go.

I feel that the Gulf War has never ended when one considers the fact that Saddam has violated each and every one of the conditions of surrender, Iraq has been launching SAMS at coalition aircraft for the past 11 years at God only knows what cost to our defense department and all of us tax payers. It's just took 8 years to get a President who had the balls to make the right decision and force Saddam into compliance or he will be history, And in the end Saddam Hussain will be history

What's more important:

Oil or a terrorist with WMD?

I think we know the answer. Now everyone can stop talking about it.
