  • The conflict won't end untill the occupation is over, and the iraqi people control the oil fields not private American oil companies. Read untill the feilds are nationalized, insurgents will never stop. It's all about the money Dick! Those feilds are estimated at 27 TRILLION dollars in values, do you think Houston and Wall St would like to control the flow or the let the Iraqis get wealthy off their own natural resources?

  • As for the per cap oil idea, it would work to solve a lot of average Iraqis' problems. It works in Alaska where the citizens routinely turn a blind eye to environmental concerns because they each get oil checks. And shhh, it would work off the coast of Florida if all of those greedy retirees could get an oil check. Money is a great lubricant to the gears of change.

  • theres a really funny ricky gervais bit that talks about using horses and men to put humpty back together. "if i had to design something to crush and egg, it would be a hoof." Im not a fan of Biden either. I just posted a vlog talking about the dangers truths can have in half doses.

  • Biden came out with a soft-partition plan of federated states, and was scoffed at. But now I'm hearing more and more advisors advocating the same idea. Bush needs to read Humpty Dumpty. All of the king's horses and all of the king's men couldn't put Humpty Dumpty back together again.

  • i believe a percap system would work best for oil. Which would instate a middle class. And i believe effectively end conflict.

  • a silver lining perhaps, but i believe that would have been acomplished by simply over throwing saddamm, and setting up a loose federation of states similar to what we used to cherish here. divide the oil amongst themselves. not that we had a right to over throw saddamm in the first place.

  • Absolutely. Except I don't even call that northern section Iraq anymore, since they don't either. While the Shia and Sunni have been battling it out, Kurdistan has effectively partitioned itself away, even adopting its own flag. After centuries of oppression, their liberty is the best thing that has come from the Iraq War.

  • who might have just invaded iraq...

  • And now we are going to have to have bases in Kurdistan (which actually I don't have a problem with; they want us) to protect them from Turkey.

  • We gotta have some where to start when we attack Iran...
