Isn't it obvious Iraq was 90% about stealing the oil from the French and Russians, not for the American people, but for a few big oil company cronies? And the UK came in because BP was included. It was all a huge corrupt deal carried out with our money and the lives of our troops. Saddam was actually a much better alternative to what we have now, a hopeless civil war where certain towns can be secured temporarily but the real issues never get resolved. Now Iraq needs the UN after being split up and sectioned off into ethnic regions. What a huge mess.

The other two reasons for invading Iraq were Bush saw how his father's popularity zoomed when he went to war (though his father knew how to organize a war and how to stop one too) and also the religious right and the Zionist right got together and influenced. Both are very pro war and self-destructive. Just like the Islamic nuts. All three religious nut groups want world war and Armageddon. They are all sick and un-godly.
