lonestar - i think you meant to type Iran,...as we have already have troops in Iraq.
in any case,...if that is a serious inquiry it appears you missed the point of the entire post.
it's way beyond what you are suggesting and way beyond what this present administration has offered as a reason to go to war.
the answers are in the content of the body of the posts i presented. the asses of evil (bush,cheney,runsfield) are in full service of powers conducting a larger chess move on the global board.
invest at your own risk, based on your own due diligence, at your own risk tolerance
