Iraq pays for is demise?

[IrishHand]

This comes as a surprise to someone? Why would we pay for it, when we can just have them pay for it. How will they pay for it? Looks to me like they've got a wealth of natural resources. Well...ok...one natural resource. That's cool though. We'll take that and call it even.

Funny how that works out, when some like to argue either that (a) it's not about oil, or (b) that it's some humanitarian gesture. How humanitarian is it when you're making a profit in the process? (Or conversely, why aren't we engaged in the same level of humanitarian military invasions in countries without oil?)
