It is not in the interest of Iraq to break OPEC. It is well known that a monopoly maximizes profits, so why should Iraq kill the golden goose? They will probably negotiate a bigger share of OPEC output -- not too hard, since most of OPEC members are at the limits of their production capacity.

Before discussing the future of Iraq we need to decide if a US military government in Iraq is a viable proposition. Iraq's opposition is already making noises about not wanting any US occupation. Do you think we will impose a military government for long, if the overwhelming majority of Iraq's people do not want it?
