Did they get him already?

The situation as I see it ....

France and Russia have a deal with Iraq to buy oil from them as soon as the sanctions are lifted.

If America and the United Kingdom invade and topple Saddam, then this deal becomes void. This is why they objected to military force.

America and the UK want to control the oil in Iraq (notice I said control, not take). This will help the US and UK economies no end.

Saddam needs a big kick up the arse and I believe the USA are justified in doing so. But I also believe that the USA must also take action to settle the Israel/Palestine conflict asap.

There cannot be double standards here, so Israel and the Palestinians should also be told to disarm when Iraq has been dealt with.

I am not a big fan of Bush, but I do think he should use his nations muscle to stop conflict in the world. America has been too insulated to the rest of the world for too long.

I hope the war is over fast, and I wish US, UK and Aussie troops all the best.
