Yes, and what I was considering at that time, it was already after the Gulf War and the sanctions were already in place ... well.... one can only wonder? I think not .

" Added Gianni Picco: "The future of Iraq will be really the future of who exploits, develops, and buys the oil of Iraq. There are only three possibilities: Russia, France, and America. And there is no other oil industry like the American oil industry that could transform Iraq into a new mecca. And everybody knows that. If I were Saddam, I would come to the conclusion that the future of Iraq is with America, or it is nothing at all."
