It has always been about oil. Many of those opposed to the liberation of Iraq were profiteering on Iraqi oil revenues and had great aspirations for massive profits from Saddam in the future. We separated France and Russia from their black gold objective. Now we have to make sure we keep Al Qaeda and the Iranian mullahs from moving in. If Al Qaeda interrupts or controls oil flow from SA or Iraq $2 may get you 1/20 of a gallon. Oil prices are extremely sensitive to changes in the S / D balance. Impacting 5% of supply would be devastating to the global economy.
