I may be writing more on this later, if I have the stomach for it, but read through the above New York Times report on the new oil law approved by the Iraqi government – and gasp in shock-and-awed wonder that the leading newspaper in the United States could file a story like this and only note – in the next-to-last paragraph – that Iraq's oil will controlled by the iron fist of a "central body called the Federal Oil and Gas Council" which will have "a panel of oil experts from inside and outside Iraq" as part of the operation… without telling us that these "oil experts" will in fact be executives and representatives of American and other Western oil companies

http://www.uspoliticsonline.com/war-...le-begins.html Well, the last thing I want to see in Iraq is anybody, anybody at all, other than Iraqis profiting from their natural resources. In particular, I'd also be 'sick to the stomach' if any profits went to anybody associated with Bushy.
