I found it funny to, that all.

the "oil conspiracy" are right for the wrong resions, I think they (us. gov) are looking at it as a funding source to rebuild the
place "after" the war, get money and jobs to people so they love us, right, but 10 billion a year go a long way, open the taps so
the price goes to 20-25 dollars is a plus and have troops on 2(3) sides of Iran is the big plus.


Bottom line we do like him and maybe a warning to china to deal with North Kara
