>Also, the more I think about this, I thought that the idea way back when was that Iraq oil production income was going to be used to rebuild the country. Does this mean that the income the American oil companies will be taking must be spent on rebuilding Iraq, or will that money not be considered oil production money?

Yeah, well the price of freedom and democracy. Should'nt Syria be taken care of now as well? After all they now have Iraq's WMD and they have oil too! Btw, its not "American oil companies" only - they are all involved, UK, Dutch, etc.
