ABSOLUTELY NOT, according to the administration. At least that is what we’ve heard so far.
Instead, we’ve heard various other purported reasons, such as the following:
- Because Saddam Hussein has shown contempt for the United Nations and for his deceptions and cruelties.
- Because Iraq has failed to co-operate with United Nations weapons inspectors and International Atomic Energy Agency.
- Because Iraq had nuclear, chemical, and biological weapons. These regimes could use such weapons for blackmail, terror, and mass murder…
- Because we need to establish democracy in Iraq.
Now that Americans are becoming ever more aware of the severe oil shortages we will be facing over coming decades, however, now that it’s more politically palatable to say so, I predict the following:
Before his current term is up, Bush will plainly admit that he invaded Iraq to keep oil flowing to the U.S.
He will brag that his invasion had this ultimate goal. I’m on record.
