Sorry CJ but your liberal press rant just doesn't support facts.

First Irak has between 5 and 10% of the known world oil reserves. Insignificant compared to Alaska, Russia and Venezuela.

Keep in mind that I would rather keep Saddam holed up but the situation in that area is more than just inside the borders of Irak.

Yes there is oil involved in this. France and Germany have seen fit to bypass the embargos and sell technology that has enabled Saddam to rebuild his WOMD's. They take Saddam's oil and his profits from other oil sales. Oil money that could have gone into developing infrastructure for his citizens. France is stalling because they will be exposed.

Had the US under Bush-1 been more interested in oil we would have gone all the way to Baghdad.

Had the US been interested in only the oil we would have bought all we could bypassing the UN like France and Germany did. Surely a lot cheaper in costs and human lives.

Now we see the same situation developing that resulted in the invasion of Kuwait (for oil). Saddam is a problem for the local Arab community but they keep their concerns a quite whisper in the ear of the US so as not to upset their bastard son Ben Laden and his extreme followers. As a threat to the local countries which do supply the ROW with oil it is an "oil" thing.

the Al Qeada connection has been firmly established. There is no doubt. Even France admits to it.

Yes "Americans" believe most everything the liberal press throws at them; CNN and the NYT included. Just where did you get your arguments??????

As to wither you are UN-American. Possibly. It's obvious that you are mistaken in your perceptions.
