It's not about WMD destruction but about oil ? You're making me crazy paul. You've been beating the war drums here pretty hard for awhile and now you head off in a direction that is 180 deg. opposite to the reasons for war that the admin. is promoting? Everything in the Gulf is about oil. Saddam is about oil. The Saud's are about oil. You can't think about anything in the Gulf region without thinking about oil. The 'It's about oil' camp thinks it's about American oil companies getting profitable control over Saddam's oil. Nonsense. Ceding control of the Gulf oil to Saddam by letting him develop WMD gives him the ability to destroy the Western world's economy. That is something to war about. Paul
