<<Attacking Iraq for oil is completely unacceptable even if it was a beneficial side effect of the war>> Well that's one opinion. Mine is that we need three criteria for attacking. 1.Morally justified ,Saddam is a monster. End of story. 2.we can win with a minimum of casusalities . In spite of Elmat's biases that's turning out to be a no brainer 3.Some benefit to the US worth the cost. This is where the Oil comes in. I might add that Viet Namn met NONE of these . <<Even attacking Iraq to remove a tyranical leader isn't terribly justified unless you do the same elsewhere. >> Yeah right of course if you don't then you must listen to the monday morning Qt backs ...Look at the self righteous who damned the free world for not taking out Hitler for the holocaust. <<Americans say things like this and then wonder why people in other countries hate them.... >> This has nothing to do with why there are those who hate us . I think you know that.
