Well, I'm starting to piss people off by trying to debunk this constant sickening discussion about the Iraq issue being about "OIL". We haven't had hard times for oil in the past ten or so years and leaving in the ground in Iraq is like having nuts in the squirrel hole. Hussein's gonna keel over one day, naturally or otherwise and that will change the complexion of the scenery for good. Venezuela is a little more promising as far as being a critical issue considering the amount of black oozy tarry sticky stuff (no, no, this isn't about 'smack' addiction) that comes North for Los Americanos to mainline into their fuel tanks. What I maintain to be the critical issue is something very much more basic: it's that wearever mosaic image on the Al-Rasheed Hotel (or wherever) of Poppy's face that got their cockles all chilled. The idea of removing Hussein relates directly back to the the 1991-92 period when Poppy was 'removed' and Hussein wasn't. Taking Hussein's prestige and toys away from him (to include the oil tangentally) is one way of getting back at all those times soiled shoe soles have tread upon the Daddy of the Great Leader. This remains proof that Hussein didn't lose. If anyone has been associated with large organisations, there is some mystique about having the organisational (S&B?) emblem on the floor in the lobby or hangar are wherever the great ones gather to lick each others' boots, the symbol being hallowed ground to the point of people actually learning to walk around it so as to not foul it with their broghans. And, to the point of becoming indignant with the uninitiated for being ignorant of the insignia's significance. All other things remain incidental and insignificant by comparison.
