Yes littleC it is all about the oil. After all if you look back thru history of every war that USA has been a part of, it was all about plundering. We plundered the fuck out of Germany and Japan after the world wars for example. It's amazing there is even countries left there, we plundered them so badly.

Tee-hee, this is funny - I won't go far except to point out once again, common debating technique - don't discuss the message, rather discredit the person putting an opinion forward by mocking them and their values.
If you don't think it is about oil, then try to figure the difference between North Korea (nuclear armed, firing test missles actively, etc) vs Iraq (might have weapons, nothing found yet except for missles that might be able to go 15 miles further than the UN allows). There is ONE major difference, and it is what is under the ground in the two countries... one is poor and without the ability to feed it's people, and the other sits on the largest oil reserves in the world.
If you can't see the importance of oil in the discussion, then you mainlined the koolaid.
