Iraq Plans Third Postwar Oil Tender

Iraq Plans Third Postwar Oil Tender

"It was still not clear when and how much crude could be exported to market because of political sabotage in the north and economic sabotage of oil facilities in the south."

To the victors, the spoils of war. Maybe if there had been clarity in the reasons our attack on Iraq, the world may have helped more, as I suspect in what I'm reading that the rest of the world looks on at Iraq, not so much with a "I told you so" tone, but more resignation to the very long fuck up that Iraq is going to be.

And maybe that was one of the reasons for attacking Iraq, the distraction of the Muslim fundamentalists, moving their focus to Iraq.
