From the Energy department web pages:

U.S. Oil Imports from Iraq (First 9 months of 1999): 695,000 bbl/d (up from 262,000 bbl/d in 1998 and 48,000 bbl/d in 1997)

That contradicts your source, since 4 times 25% = 100%! In fact, that web page doesn't make sene. It says the US uses almost six million barrels a day, then says we get ALL those barrels from the countries you mention. What about domestic oil? I think I'll believe the energy depertment's numbers.
