>>>You think we have more control over the oil now than before the Iraq war? I find it odd that one could believe that.<<<

As I have stated in a previous post #msg-14918918

"As distasteful, insane or whatever other adjective you care to add to the appearance of this issue/situation (let me predicate this with the fact that I have believed all along that an attack of Iraq was completely unnecessary, even before we went there) they accomplished what they wanted out of it: 1) control of a large oil depot 2) big paydays for insiders via no bid contracts 3) getting a foot in the M.E. door."

So who is occupying Iraq? How many barrels of oil does Iraq have? These are the questions you should be asking...

>>>Iran being armed to the teeth with state of the art Russian military hardware gives the U.S. more control over oil? I am not sure we are watching the same movie.<<<

I agree...
