    ...a fraction of the billions in oil profits the Iraqis should be making..your talking about one of the top three oil reserves in the world...
    Tell me how much they should be making, dan. Give me numbers.

    That's just what we know about...
    Your new conspiracy is secret multi-billion oil production contracts that no on anywhere would know about.

    That's not new....the Kuwati were horizontal drilling into Iraqi oil fields for years to hide their own declining productions...

    ...that was one of the reasons Saddam felt justified reclaiming Kuwait

    So how did it go so far back up? Did they drill all the way through the Earth to Venezuela?

    Same place we get it from -- the international oil market.

    Iraq currently imports almost half of its oil products needs.

    Without causing supply side price pressure on the markets that rely on that oil - bull

    My point is that a military requires a lot of oil...no Iraq invasion, no power for the U.S. in the region..

    I expect someone other than you to know about the secret contracts.

    Seriously.

    Everyone already knows that production of any given oil field is not infinite. you simply grafted your latest conspiracy onto that.

    Tell me dan -- what was Saddam Hussein's proof that Kuwait was stealing their oil?

    Tell me what that "supply side pressure on markets that rely on oil" was.

    Give me some numbers.

    No, your point was all the oil for the military was coming from Iraq.

    You were wrong.

    I already explained to you how countries get oil.

    Thanks for showing you understand that now.

    Do you understand the US was getting Iraqi oil all along, including before the invasion?

    Yep. The US got some of that oil, just like they have always gotten some of that oil.

    You don't realize you made an argument against the invasion of Iraq.

    The US was getting Iraqi oil all along -- it took six years for production to reach the levels attained during oil for food. What was the incentive for invading for oil when that made production go to practically zero?

    ...but we didn't control the flow of the oil...if we wanted we could have taken every drop of Iraq oil for years to payback the American taxpayer, but they didn't....there was no profit in that...

    By that definition, we don't control the flow of oil now.

    You are doing a terrible job of explaining yourself. What is the US profiting now?

    So Kuwaiti production should have gone down according to you.

    Good job, dan.
