We did not invade Iraq to take their oil from them. We are perfectly happy to pay market price for oil.

We invaded Iraq to ensure that under any circumstances the oil would be available for us to purchase. That is the same thing China is doing with Iran, though they are using diplomacy instead of war.

Within 15 years there will be fierce competition between us and them for oil .... there won't be enough to go around.
