The first Gulf war was to preserve the oil fields of Kuwait and Saudi Arabia. The second Gulf war is far from this.

Oil money is what gave the terrorist the ability to strike at us. The Iraqis and the Palestinians hate us more than any group of people of the face of the earth. Yet they have never touched us. Poverty prevents these people from going outside the borders.

If all Muslims nations were starving to death the world would be a much better place.

We are preparing to sever relationships with the entire middle east. This hardly constitute economic drive on our part.
