If I were to be a financial advisor to the Saudi, Iraq free again to mass-produce great quantities of oil would not be in my best interest. In fact I would desperately want a stalemate between Iraq and the world so even oil for food would slow down to a trickle.
Think about this scenario folks. Worst case scenario is Iraq has nerve agent and scuds to launch them. They throw around some missiles; we retaliate with emphasis and reduce their war fighting ability to null. But don't count on us blowing up their oil fields. The most they could try to do is try to reach Israel to stir up a mid-east confrontation. But we are already working that end.
These guys don't have the means to take out other folk's oil fields. Can't seem to come up with a positive for our sector either way except negative if Iraq is taken out. Any one have a different point of view in reference to how getting rid of Suddan Husian can improve the oil service sector?

These guys don't have the means to take out other folks oil fields. Can't seem to come up with a positive for our sector either way except negative if Iraq's political team is taken out. On a personal note I'd love to take this dude out myself! The guy is pure evil!
