Almost all of the wealth generated in Iraq comes from two off-shore oil rigs.

Guarding these sites is a priority, not just for war-torn Iraq, but for a world in which oil prices have touched record highs.

Jane Dutton reports.

  • It's sad to see life wasted over oil. If there wasn't any oil over there, would people even know the name of the country?

  • There is a typo in the title

    Your wrote "Guarding" Iraqi oil when I think you meant "Stealing".

    Yeah, like a major typo.

  • @mattmatt115 HEY EVERYONE, MATT WITH THE STUTTER IS BACK!! ENCORE , ENCORE... AINT HE SPECIAL....

  • @Crumper00 Your point? You were making a point? Was it that you are an idiot? Because thats all i got from it

  • @mattmatt115 Thank you for continuing to prove my point. Give him a hand folks... isn't he wonderfull? I believe he performs nightly...

  • @Crumper00 Hmm... Lets see i read your retarded comment, so i told you that you are a nutjob. Now Beavis and Butthead what the hell is that?!?! You ARE fucked buddy!!!!!!!

  • @mattmatt115 You have anything intellegent to print? Or do you just roam YouTube doing a Beavis and Butthead impersonation?

  • @Crumper00 HOLY SHIT you are a nutjob!! Totally delusional!!! You need to take a great big drink of some really cold nice fresh water. And pour a gallon on your head, put some ice in it too, it might just wake you up.

  • It is really understandable why Iraqis are blowing themselves in so many numbers, your country gets invaded under the cover of fake WMD, but the real goal was to control your oil wealth.

    Society fabric is torn to pieces and priceless Iraqi historical artifacts gets looted, yet everything was done millitary wise to ensure Iraqi oil continues to flow to fuel Western economies.

    Some conservative estimate place Iraqi dead at over a million people. Oil still flows. Will you be mad?

  • Interesting that even the Museum holding priceless Iraqi history did not survive looting, but the oil facility got top priority security.
