It would be simpler to take the oil from the region. Once it is gone, it is clear the Arabs will go back to the bedouin existence they lived prior to its exploitation. Instead, we pretend our actions are in the cause of freedom, as if it is actually possible to give a country George Washington and Patrick Henry rather than having such figures and the ideals they espouse rise from the local population. In 1973, the Arab oil embargo gave us a wake up call. Instead of acting to replace oil, we took the phone off the hook. Now we fight wars for fictitious reasons while spouting off disingenuous rhetoric. Once it depletes sufficiently, our economy will be permanently destroyed. How important will Iraqi freedom be to us then? Britain was simply an American tool, one with centuries of history of abuse towards other countries and their peoples.The CIA did 9/11 - NOT Saddam, and NOT Osama. It WAS IN FACT an inside job! What that means is MILLIONS of innocent people have died or have become maimed for life in Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan for ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!Bush and Cheney should be tried for war crimes and all resulting deaths including U.S. soldiers! Outright lies to the American people led to U.S. involvement and the squandering of the nations wealth. Iraq had no involvement with Bin Laden and in truth hated each other. Please see the Frontline episode called "The Dark Side" on the PBS website.
