and if you hate the war in iraq, remember to reduce your oil consumption, because we went there to ensure a reliable source of oil in the future. to avoid further wars, we'll have to use less oil. that's all.
No, we went there because Bush said they were a threat to our saftey and that they had WMDS. Oil was a reason, but it wasn't the one that was used to convince the general public with. We have oil in our oil reserves and countries other than Iraq export oil to us. Plus, if you think oil is a worth cause to kill innocent Americans and innocent Iraqis, you are an idiot.
the reason used to convince the general public was rhetoric. the reason we went to iraq was to set up a Liberal democracy that would trade oil with us in the future when oil reserves start declining. while opec trades with us now, they may not in the future. by creating a democracy in iraq, we make sure we have a trading partner in the middle east. i don't think oil is a worthy cause to kill anyone, but that is what is hapenning. people have been killed for resources for the last 8,000 years, since the dawn of civilization. in order to prevent wars, we all must lessen our dependence on foreign oil, meaning we must lessen our oil consumption.
