[quote=Allan from Fallbrook][quote=Zeitgeist]Allan,
I think captcha makes a good point, in that it’s more realistic to believe that Iraq was about oil, because the other alternatives seem somewhat unbelievable, but I always fall back on Sir Arthur Conan Doyle in that instance: “When you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth”.[/quote]
I found a citation that in 2001, the Cheney energy task force was aimed at
rewriting the iraqi oil laws. Now just because the Bush people turned out
to be so incompetent that they could invade a country intending to
steal their oil and then prove incapable of even doing that, well, what
can I say.
Also, while Halliburton is an oil services company, not a production
cmpany, they were in charge of all the pipelines, the production and
the deliveries to Jordan and turkey. None of halliurton’s work was audited,
measured, tracked. The system in iraq is totally corrupt, and Halliburton
moved to dubai to avoid any ability of US Courts or the SEC to
look at their books.
