A short video that examines the notion that the U.S. was motivated to attack Iraq for oil. As America tries to exit Iraq, the type of government left in control of Iraq and it's oil reserves is a crucial factor for a lot of people, including big business, but was oil really what launched the war in March 2003?
According to Iraq oil expert Mohammad Al-Gallani at British-based GeoDesign Ltd, Iraq has 526 prospective drilling sites, of which only 125 have been drilled. Of those, 90 have proven potential as oil fields, but only 30 have been partially developed and just 12 are on stream.

  • they tried staging a coup in venezuela. Ever heard of an economic hitman?

  • That's an interesting comparison with Venezuela.

    Perhaps they are just further down the "wars to do" list.
