The Real Reason for the Iraq War
There have been lots of theories about the real reason for the Iraq war, the main one being that it was to get the oil because we need a steady supply.
I don't believe this is true.
The real reason is the opposite - to restrict the flow of oil. Have you seen the profits that the oil companies are making, now that the price of oil has reached record highs? And the fact that the Government got to fight a war and scare us into submission with stories about terrorists was an added bonus!
You almost have to admire the genius of the plan. Make lots of money and increase their power in one foul swoop. Brilliant!
