If you want to deny us the ability to buy oil Huh? you will freeze our children and starve the ME children US not invading Iraq does not mean US not being able to buy oil from the ME, let alone from anywhere else in the world (Duh!). US not invading Iraq means US not controlling the oil market and hence paying higher prices than it wants to. Just like a real junkie, it is going to the source of its addiction. Even if Iraq refuses to sell oil to the US, given its special relationship with Saudi Arabia and Kuwait, your children will not freeze from lack of oil. In short, you don't know what you are talking about. As for ME children (I guess you mean Iraqis) starving, I doubt if they will be any worse off then now. US does not buy oil from Iraq now, either, for your information, and neither does anyone else, except within the 'oil for food' program. When the sanctions are lifted, even without the US, I am sure Iraq will have myriad customers to choose from and hence its children will not starve. Nice to see you trying to look like you care, though...
