Oil. It is forbidden to even discuss this in public, as if the very idea
that this nation would kill and send soldiers to be killed for oil is
beyond possibility. But oil IS the only real  reason we care about that
region.

WAR IS FAILURE

The facts don't matter to Lawrence. He is fully unaware of the facts.
The 
disaster is in the newspapers. Everyone knows it is a fiasco, except 
Lawrence.

Lawrence, it was a fake war. No WMDs. No Saddam-involved-with-911.
Al-Qaeda 
was not in Iraq (but they are now, thanks to the war!)

Greenspan spoke the truth: it is oil. The only reason we care about the

Middle East is oil. If there was no oil, we would never be there.

The Neocon fiasco destroyed the US military, killed possibly more than
a 
million people, wrecked the US gobal political position, and squandered
$2-3 
trillion dollars. All for the sake of oil companies, mercenaries,
weapons 
companies, and Israel. Who does indeed hate America?

Lawrence, you are a shill for the weapons industry.
