Glad you finally figured that out. Now apply it to the situation in Iraq and tell me how "it is about the oil". We're going to pay the same for oil regardless unless we change supply and demand.

What an incredibly stupid remark. It's the difference between controlling your supply and depending on someone else's precarious supply. Iraq has 2X the oil reserves of the entire NA continent, nearly 1/2 of the reserves of SA and 6X the reserves of the US. SA could go up in smoke anytime. The country could fall to Islamic fundamentalism who would control 30% of the world reserves of oil. You think it's not about oil? Get a brain.
