Did you know the country we freed from Iraq. never gave a bit of business to U.S. oil corporations. . read about it in the Philadelphia Inquirer today.

this thing about us taking away the oil from iraq. is pure bs.

carranza2,

So long as Iraqi oil pays for our war expenses, I'll be satisfied. Who cares whether Cheney's friends make a buck or two? Not me. Someone will have to do the work, it might as well be people who are capable.

I think you have a good idea here that could be extended to the North Korean situation. In that case, we could have our industrialists build factories and North Koreans could work in them for room and board until they had repaid the cost of liberating them.
